A seamlessly edited cut polished from a rehearsal of the signature song.
lyrics
We are shapeshifter, resistor, transmitter,
Coming through to you via waves of sound
Inviting you to higher ground
Look! See goblins in the mist and who can resist
The goblin queen, her smile serene,
Her touch as no other, she wants you to be her lover
Hark! Who is that that descends to see?
'Tis the elfin king, green of skin, lithe of limb
Does your spirit not sing in harmony with the elfin king?
Who is that that takes your hand?
Now I know it may feel cold and scary
But there is no need to fear, fear a fairy
Who only wants to dance, entrance,
Blue fairy feet dancing in your soul,
What a feeling, such healing, making you whole
Compute, transmute, dilute
Dilute one part with three parts water...
It grows, it flows
And the stream flows through the wood
And we all feel good
When we find we are back on Albion's blessed shore
Where less is more
See trees grow feet where roots once held them down
And dress themselves in leaves of green and brown
And dance and make romance
Under stars and chocolate bars on Mars
We are Shapeshifter, resistor, transmitter,
Coming through to you via waves of sound
Inviting you to higher ground
Compute, transmute, dilute, transmute,
Resist! Shapeshift! Resist!
Transmit! Shapeshift! Shapeshift!
Resist! Transmit... resist...
Shapeshift... transmit... resist...
Shapeshift... transmit... transmit...
Resist... shapeshift... shapeshift...
Resist... transmit... transmit... transmit...
We are getting through... to... you...
