lyrics

Calipso was curious, but his curiosity turned to fear when he saw the towering giant. Calipso watched as Grog lifted one of the sleepers, placed him on a large, white stone, and deftly dismembered him. “Oh, how horrible,” Calipso said. As Grog reached for another sleeper, Calipso, turning away, noticed a twitch in the arm of the dismembered man. Staring, Calipso saw another twitch. This time in the man’s leg. Then an eye blinked and then a head rolled upright. Slowly each part began to stir and make its way across one of the bridges.

“How peculiar,” said calypso, “Will they stay that way all night? I wonder what a toe dreams.” The firefly glowed dimly as it said, “A toe dreams what an eye dreams, what an arm dreams. Drow the giant puts them all back together.” Calipso nodded in understanding then asked a sensible question, “How will I get across?” “Oh, you are quite safe,” said the firefly, “You are too small for anyone to notice.” Relieved, Calipso crossed unnoticed into the land of dreams.
