Lyrics
Deep below the palace grounds upon the isle of Crete
There's a beast with mighty horns and tired and calloused feet
Lost within the darkness, stumbling through the dirt
Feel his bellows of despair send tremors through the earth
Can you blame the monster when the crime's not his alone
Why don't we blame King Minos upon his golden throne
Theseus, Athenian prince, descends into the dark
By the dim light of his torch he searches for his mark
When the beast has fallen at the hands of man
People cheer in Athens, blood pools in the sand
Certain monsters perish, others reign as kings of Crete
But no one slays King Minos there in his golden seat
