Nokken
There is a man I met
Who has lived here long
And he told me of a monster
That lives in this swamp
The Nokken he will eat you
Whether he is hungry or not
So steer clear of the cypress trees
Where the water greets the shore
He is waiting for your passing
Last night I heard him roar
That Nokken he is a mean one
He is angry that you came
The Nokken sees what we can't
He lives in our shame
Listen to the Nokken
In the water we are sunk in
There's a thorn in his hand
That he reached out to us
He limps when he walks
And swims in molded muck
He cries in the night
For the home he has lost
He polishes his pearls
The last of his precious
Why he keeps asking
But the answer is lost
Why he keeps asking
But the answer isn't taught
Why (x3)
Who has lived here long
And he told me of a monster
That lives in this swamp
The Nokken he will eat you
Whether he is hungry or not
So steer clear of the cypress trees
Where the water greets the shore
He is waiting for your passing
Last night I heard him roar
That Nokken he is a mean one
He is angry that you came
The Nokken sees what we can't
He lives in our shame
Listen to the Nokken
In the water we are sunk in
There's a thorn in his hand
That he reached out to us
He limps when he walks
And swims in molded muck
He cries in the night
For the home he has lost
He polishes his pearls
The last of his precious
Why he keeps asking
But the answer is lost
Why he keeps asking
But the answer isn't taught
Why (x3)
