E se R'lyeh fosse al largo di stoccolma?

Visto il successo di "critical hit on my heart", ecco un'altra canzone ripescata in rete, appartenente al genere musicale del filk (un genere fuori di testa che sto apprezzando sempre più).

Questa risponde alla domanda : cosa sarebbe successo se R'lyeh fosse stata al largo di stoccolma?
Beh, tanto per cominciare le canzoni del gruppo svedesE degli abba avrebbero avuto testi piuttosto differenti.

Do you hear the pipes, Cthulhu?
They were being played by shoggoths on the shores of Carcosa
Can you hear our prayers, Cthulhu?
Deep in sunken R'lyeh waiting for the rightness of a star?
Where the Deep Ones worship Dagon, Mother Hydra in sea chambers built afar?


Chorus:
There was chanting in the air that night
The stars were right, Cthulhu!
You were dreaming of your destiny
Beneath the sea, Cthulhu!
Though the Elder Gods have cast you down
Have no regret
As the Al-Azif has prophesized, R'lyeh will rise, Cthulhu!


We are waiting O Cthulhu
Sacrificing virgins while the nightgaunts hover 'gainst the moon
Seeking power O Cthulhu
Drawing sigils in their blood and Elder Signs and other runes
They were dying drenched in madness and the eldritch vapors of a thousand dooms
(chorus)

You are sleeping Great Cthulhu
Never knowing the unspeakable things we do in your name
But don't worry Great Cthulhu
We will carry on destroying without sanity or shame
Till the universe resounds with all the sounds of lost souls shrieking out in pain
(chorus)

As the Al-Azif has prophesized, R'lyeh will rise, Cthulhu!
