Viking Viking
Making his mark on Denmark
Sailing his way from Norway
Viking Viking
Fictional horns on his helmet
He was inbred
Blonde was his hair
Berserkers everywhere
Rape and Pillage
Plunder
Viking Viking

What is the Quest?

Viking Viking
Yes
What is the quest?
That is the quest
What is the quest?
Yes
What?
What is the quest?
Take a guess
Yes
Yes
That is the quest
To answer the
Question
What is the quest?
He journeyed blindly
Upon a quest
It was the best
It's not a contest
Ancestry of incest
Scandinavia is a small place
Relative to outer space

Scary Tree

|

Scary Tree
Its all caught up to me
It says what comes from the sea
Must now return to the sea
Just before it drowns me
I get saved luckily
By knowing poultry
Perched in another tree
Watching over me
Celestially
Banishes Scary Tree
Let's give some back story

Wise Owl Intro
01:10
|
|||
He lands on the shore
Journeys through the forest
Entranced by its lure
South East of Uluru
His quest is on its way
But what it is he cannot say
He takes a wrong turn
He has lost his way
Prickles up his neck
Goosebumps in his spine
Things don't seem the same when he looks behind
It cackles by mistake
It's already too late
Splintering embrace
But somewhere from above
There erupts a hoot
Scary Tree does flee
Shivering through his root
Icarus' fowl
Saviour swooping down
Wisdom on the prowl
Wise Owl

Wise Owl
02:03
|

Wise Owl of the night
Your eyes did give me
An awful fright
Of the night
You are king
As you sit
Upon your swing
In your wisdom
You are mute
Except for your
Occasional Hoot
Wise Owl Of the night
Your eyes did give me
An awful fright

Wise Owl, you seem smart and noble
With a zealous zest
Can you help me upon my quest?
I cannot promise, but I'll do my best
Personally
I would like to see
What I am to be
Can you tell me?
Unfortunately I do not have the authority
You see, I only possess an Arts Degree from the Melbourne University
Although I do know who can answer thee
Some buddies of me
Follow me
Off we go to The Bird Sanctuary
And as the pair begin to fly
A doomy darkness swallows the sky
Bitter winds whip harsh and dry
And a sour thought struck Viking's mind
You cannot close the opened eye
It is unknown what he will find
But what he didn't know
Was that he could rewind
To the innocent life
He left behind

The Bird Sanctuary
08:34
|
|||
I am Bird Sanctuary
I have a tin roof
I'm sitting on the roof
The birds are watching me
Is that a cat that I see?
Dressed as a bird deceitfully
Am I watching it or is watching me?
Playing cat and mouse in The Bird Sanctuary
|

Too much fun
Under the sun
Gives you sunburn
It's a lesson you have to learn the hard way
Corruption
Seduction
Here in my car
Safest of all
Happiness is back
Once and for all
Ephemeral
Is a bubble

Parliament of Hoot
04:22

And so Viking entered The Sanctuary
With no more idea of what would happen to him
Than a newborn child first entering the world
He surveyed his environment
And saw The Birds perched there
Wisdom emitting from their feather
Viking stood proudly and cleared his throat
"The wise owl sent me,
He preached about thee,
Hypothesising that you are the ones who can enlighten me
As to what my quest is to be."
The owls were shocked, glancing between each other uncertainly
"Are you sure that this is what you desire?"
"Yes"
"Well then, in retrospect you shall call yourself a lier."
"No no no, I'm serious."
"Hah, well then thou art delirious
Some things are best left unknown when it concerns the mysterious
Boy, we recommend that you remain oblivious."
"But please! I'm uncomfortably curious."
"Well, it's clear that thou aren't hearing us
So I'll teach you a lesson
Allow me to bestow upon't thee
Self consciousness
Viking,
Your life does not run through your veins
But along the squiggles of an audio wave
Those listening to you have all power
Like a hand over a pen
They can pause you
Then play you again
Viking, listen to me
You are to be
An LP

Intermission

So, Viking has completed his mission.
We now recommend that you take an intermission

Fine Aight Being

I am viking
It's a quest
I do detest
I bit the apple and
Gained self consciousness
Funny that
Hahaha
I'm out of wack
And as far as I know I can't go back!
Ignorance
Is bliss
But obliviousness
Is dangerous
I am viking

Summary!
03:33
|

Previously
On the something of Viking
His findings were
Quite enlightening
But before we talk about that
Let's do some quick
Summarising
He travelled his way
Oversea
To find out what he is to be
But was ambushed by Scary Tree
Wise Owl saved him luckily
He asked the owl for its opinion
If it could please answer his quest-
ion, the owl could not but he knew who could
So he took Viking to the Parliament of Hoot
Perched in Bird Sanctuary
Doing too much Death Machine Trampoline
Viking asked them
"What's the point in it all"
So they did break
The 4th wall
What was Viking supposed to be?
He was to be an LP
Does not know now
What to do
Now he knows he's being listened to
By you
When you find out that you are
What you are to be
What is there left
To achieve
Do you just be
Contently
Or wonder around
Aimlessly?

Aware that it's There
04:06
|
|||
Can you hear me?
What are you looking at?
Are you near me?
What do you think of that?
Did you buy me?
Or are you listening for free?
Personally, I'd probably listen for free
Plug me in and turn me on
Skipping along from song to song
I'm in your head even when I'm gone
Can someone tell me what's going on?
Plug me in and turn me on
Singing along from song to song
I'm in your head even when I'm gone
Can someone tell me what's going on?

Enchanted
Enchanted Forest
I am lost
Enchanted Forest
Enchanted
Enchanted Forest
I want some
Crackers and Hummus
Obliviousness was fun
Knowing's looking at the sun
Burns a hole through your vision
And your young innocent fun
If clothes equal comfort
And let's pretend
That they do
Then I'd be in the nude
Oh my car where is my dude
I'm in need of comfort food

Finite Being
08:07
|
|||
It is no fun
To be just one
Bestow upon me
Immortality
Or let me be 2
But that I cannot do
That would defy
What is innately true
Dissatisfied
In being absolute
Scary Tree does flee
Shivering through his root
Icarus' fowl
Saviour swooping down
But i cannot sing
That right now
It's one or the other
And if it is both two
It's not simultaneous
It is something new
The end of my quest
Is in sight
Dissatisfied
In being Finite
Want to be
More than me
Fallacy
Finite Being
Here it comes, are you ready?
This is is, the one and only
Shot you've got
Give it every
Thing you've got
Possibly
Your legacy is the only
Thing that's left
Of you after death
So don't receive
Wield it like a sword
Slaying a beast
Yes 1 2 and 3
Cheers to mortality
The end of my time is nigh
One more song then no more am I
Grim reaper awaits with his scythe
Execution at needle rise
Here it comes, and now I see!
I took a bite from the apple tree
I kinda liked me previously
But it killed the boy that was inside of me
Gandalf the grey
I died one day
But return like
Gandalf the white!
