Lyrics

[Intro]
G#m
Drink from the
F#       E
Leche of sirens
G#m
Summon the
F#         E
Sailors in town
G#m
Strangle the
F#        E B
Fear of decidin'
G#m
Which ones
  D#         G#m
Deservin' to drown

[Interlude]
G#m D#/G F# C#/F  G#m
                Engraved in our memory,

[Verse 1]
    D#/G
The harm that was done
    F#
Our mothers, the witches
     C#/F
They banished and burned
G#m
All of our sisters
           D#/G
Were killed    and abused
   F#
By swordswingin' men
            C#/F
Who would always accuse

[Pre-Chorus]
    G#m
The worst of a woman
    D#/G
Who fights for our right
   F#
To be where we belong
       C#/F
At the front of the line
G#m
Tired of silence
    D#/G
And bein' politÐµ
     F#
Your legs turn to
           C#/F
Shimmerin' scales
In thÐµ night

[Chorus]
G#m
Drink from the
F#       E
Leche of sirens
G#m
Summon the
F#         E
Sailors in town
G#m
Strangle the
F#        E B
Fear of decidin'
G#m
Which ones
  D#         G#m
Deservin' to drown
Don't feel bad
When these
Fuckers all drown
         G#m
Let them drown

[Interlude]
         D#/G
Let them drown
         F#   C#/F
Let them drown

[Verse 2]
G#m
Tenderness worn on
    D#/G
The skin like a dress
F#
Nurture these men,
          C#/F
Pull them out 
Of their mess
     G#m
They steal the resources,
  D#/G
Destroy all the land
  F#
Belittle the power of
    C#/F
The feminine hand

[Pre-Chorus]
    G#m
The milk from
              D#/G
The rivers of every moon
F#
Cradle you tight like
       C#/F
You're back in the womb
G#m
Bury their souls in
  D#/G
A cove by the light
  F#
Celestial dip, all that
C#/F
Ego and pride

[Chorus]
G#m
Drink from the
F#       E
Leche of sirens
G#m
Summon the
F#         E
Sailors in town
G#m
Strangle the
F#        E B
Fear of decidin'
G#m
Which ones
  D#         G#m
Deservin' to drown
         G#m
Let them drown

[Interlude]
         D#/G
Let them drown
         F#   C#/F
Let them drown
        D#
Nothin' wrong with

[Outro]
  E
A little havoc
     D#/G
It's fun when
     G#m
Shit hits the fan
   D#
So guillotine their
E
Heads by shoutin'
D#/G
"Cut 'em off,
      G#m
Leave waters red"
        D#
Nothin' wrong with
  E
A little havoc
     D#/G
It's fun when
     G#m
Shit hits the fan
