Michelle Shocked - Giantkiller Lyrics

Artist: Michelle Shocked

Album: Soul Of My Soul

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Fiachna O'braonain, Michelle Shocked

There's honey in the jar
And here's some vinegar
Set them up side by side
One so sweet, one so sour

I sure love your sugar, baby
But to my surprise
Found swimming 'round in the suicider
Nothing less than eleven flies

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

That fact in the back of my mind
I meant to meet the world
A pocket full of rock and wood
But I was fearless, I was bold

Tell the silver messenger
Warn your gods I'm on my way
I'm a giantkiller
Good as gold, here to stay

Taking aim so carefully
I set my stone and I let it fly
And when the giant fell to earth
None more surprised than I

Walk the earth in seven league boots
Walk it fearless, walk it bold
Some say a giantkiller
Is only good as the story is told

Tell the silver messenger
Warn your gods I'm on my way
I'm a giantkiller
Good as gold, here to stay

Tell the silver messenger
Warn your gods I'm on my way
I'm a giantkiller
Good as gold, here to stay
Now be on your way

Now be on your way
I'm a giantkiller
Now be on your way

Tell the silver messenger
Warn your gods I'm on my way
I'm a giantkiller
Good as gold, here to stay

Good as gold, here to stay
Good as gold, here to stay
I'm a giantkiller
