lyrics

Underneath the grass on the misty moor
Struck by the spades of digging poor
A long-forgotten burial
Mumia

Exhumed from the peat by greedy hands
Were the remains of an ancient man
Bought by an apothecary
Mumia

Is it madness what I sell?
I only mean to make them well
Is it like a witch’s spell?
Have I condemned my soul to Hell?

The body cured to well-tanned hide
A coil of rope lay at its side
With a loop beneath the chin
Mumia

Was he a convict put to death?
The victim of some murderous theft?
Nothing in the grave could tell
Mumia
Mumia
Mumia
Mumia

When will they know, when will they understand
That long ago there was a different land
Where man was killed, sacrificed to gods
And laid to rest in the bog
To go through into darkness
Past the gateway of water
To the primeval greatness
Of the life that comes after, after, after
Life?

Down in his dank laboratory
Laboured the pale apothecary
Grinding up the ancient corpse
Mumia

Reduced to a cure, placed in a jar
Sold as Egyptian from afar
The living eating off the dead
Mumia

Have I been the Devil’s tool?
I turned my patients into ghouls
I gave their hopes and dreams some fuel
But there’s no remedy for fools

Mumia
Mumia
Mumia
Mumia
