Quest for the Fleece

6 views

Lyrics

Legend tells of ancient heroes
 Led by Jason, an epic quest began
 Delayed on the Isle of Lemnos
 By misfortune fell Kyzicos
 Hylas was forever lost in Mysia
 Sailed on without Heracles
 Who could not leave his friend behind
 Landed in Thrace seeking Phineus
 Blessed with divine gift of prophecy
 Captured the Harpies so torturous
 In return advised how to reach the Golden Fleece
 On a journey to claim the Fleece
 In lands far away
 It hangs from an enchanted tree
 Perilous ride, no fear inside
 To Hera they pray
 The Argonauts sail far and wide
 Solo: Peter / Joe
 Pass through the clashing cliffs
 But wait till a south wind drifts
 Release a dove in the air
 If it makes it through then you must row on swiftly
 If the flight fails then you will be doomed!
 Solo: Chad
 To obtain the Fleece at Colchis
 Plow a field wielding fire-breathing beasts
 From teeth sowed into the field
 Undead warriors were revealed
 With the aid of Medea the hydra sleeps
 Aeetes, the king betrayed, his reign will cease
 Dangers on the voyage home, the Sirens' breath
 Talos held the ship at bay but bled to death
 Sail back to Greece, held high the Fleece
 The power it holds
 Is destined to restore the peace
 Followed their guide across seas wide
 As legend is told
 The Argonauts sail on with pride
 Jason returned, defeated Acastus
 Reclaimed the throne of Iolcus
