The Mechanisms - 'Trial By Strength' lyrics

Artist: The Mechanisms

album: Ulysses Dies at Dawn


If you asked the Ulysses currently kneeling in
Front of the Suits why they'd created the trials
I doubt they could tell you
Still, the coding problems and logic puzzles that
Formed the trial of wits have been silently solved by Oedipus
So next up is the trial of strength
Which is a rather romantic way of
Describing the act of turning a big iron wheel
Looks like we found your trial, Heracles
I do hope it doesn't prove too confusing for you
Yeah, maybe I should practice by
Snapping you in half, you plug-eyed freak
Now Heracles is an interesting case
Bastard son of the scion of one of
The most powerful Olympian families: Zeus
See, Don Zeus has something of a taste for women from the lower levels
And enjoys toying with the offspring that result
His favourite trick is to offer them a place in the family
Contingent on the completion of a suicide mission or two
Most barely last a week, but Heracles?
Heracles is too mean, too tough and too stupid to stop
So he just keeps going
