The Incredible String Band - Minotaur's Song

Lesser known song. Sounds like a cross between a nursery rhyme and a drinking/pub song. Someone in the comments said it sounds like a Monty Python song, which is bang on😁

Album: The Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter (1968)

Genre: British psychedelic folk

Straight on the shoulder, I think like a soldierI know what's right and what's wrong(He knows what's right and what's wrong)

I'm the original discriminating buffalo manAnd I'll do what's wrong as long as I can(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

I live in a labyrinth under the seaDown in the dark, as dark as can beI like the dark as dark as can be(He likes the dark as dark as can be)

I'll even attack you or eat you wholeDown in the dark my bone mills rollPorridge for my porridge bowl(Porridge for his porridge bowl)

[Chorus x2]I'm strong as the earth from which I'm born(He's strong as the earth from which he's born)I can't dream well because of my horns(He can't dream well because of his horns)

A minotaur gets very soreHis features they are such a boreHis habits are predictableAggressively reliable, bull, bull

[Chorus]

I'm the original discriminating buffalo manI'll do what's wrong as long as I can(He'll do what's wrong as long as he can)

As long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he canAs long as he can

Huzzah!
