St. Wendigo’s Day
[Verse 1]
Who asks for more, ye strong and proud? Who seeks to hedge against all odds
And shrink amidst a growing crowd as we sit dining with the gods?
If in honour to delight be a sin then let me sin
Seize a life, take a bite, and feel the juices stain your chin
Let idle men be covetous whiles any speaks that fought with us
[Chorus]
On St. Wendigo’s Day, a battle cry so chantable
On St. Wendigo’s Day, let none of us be known as “can’tibal”
Because we can
[Verse 2]
Anticipate the flowing nectar of our names in voices awed:
Gollum, Grendel, Bateman, Lechter, Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney Todd
In seasons hence he will recall who stands with this fraternal band
What feats he did and claims withal to which he hath affixed his brand
Then will he prove his spoils aheaped and thus proclaim “These cuts I reaped
[Chorus]
“On St. Wendigo’s Day, the day our flag stands plantable."
On St. Wendigo’s Day, let none of us be known as “can’tibal”
Because we can
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
On St. Wendigo’s Day, hematic wine decantable
On St. Wendigo’s Day, let none of us be known as “cann’tibal”
On St. Wendigo’s Day, all heaven’s favors grantable
On St. Wendigo’s Day, let none of us be known as “can’tibal”
Because we can
