Odysseus you lead 10 years of war
And now the gods will make sure you aren’t home for 10 more
You came while we were gone
And decided to stay too long
Who needs home when you have the lotus,
Stay awhile and try some
Nobody, you entered by home while I was at work
And now your men shall be my dessert
Odysseus, the cursed one, we gave you all the goods you need to make it home
And now you’re back and wanting more?
How cursed you must be for the gods to make that so
Don’t brag, don’t be foolish
Because we are giants and we can throw this
Odysseus you bypassed my spell
So now join me in my personal hell
I’ve revealed the truth in all your men
So stay for a while, you could be home now.
Do you remember us? We’ll show you a path homeward
A path that if followed your journey will be ended
For after 13 years you know not to detour from the directions of which your instructed
We sing our song, don’t you want to hear it?
Just untie yourself so you can come near it.
It’s like a roadblock, for there is no way pass us
Either lose 6 men or try your luck
But you might not want to tell them
It’s very simple what you must do
Refrain from the gods cattle and to home you’ll go
Odysseus, the sad one, I kept you prisoner here for 7 years
And if it weren’t for those gods I wouldn’t have let you go
Odysseus, the clever one, tell us your stories from start to finish
And will provide you with our golds and riches
Home at last you arrive,
Only to be greeted with an unpleasant surprise
A group of suitors following your spouse
You must hide until you can weed them out
