She'll be Coming Round the Mountain

The Eldest One is coming
and She isn't in a very good mood.
When the Most Ancient comes around,
certain divinities had better make themselves pretty scarce.
If you follow the games, they all went thataway.
Only big game around here now, huntress and hunted.
The Eldest One is coming and She isn't happy.

Gods and Goddesses, friends and lovers, who can remember anything like this?
How long did that take?
Tell you one thing, there will be a deity scalped tonight.
Fun is fun, She will say.
That's one thing, and here's another,
and it's got your name on it.
That will be a good time to duck.
She plays for keeps.

The Eldest One is coming
and She's hungry for meat.
Don't call the Council
they won't be home.
She's gonna be here any time
and She heard something about you She don't like.
There's a place out in the hills you might can stay for a while.
Don't even bother to pack
I'll take care of everything.
You can trust me.
The Eldest One is coming
and you better head for the hills.
