got to keep your head low
If you want to keep your head huh,
you got to keep your head low
Keep your head, keep your head low
Oh, you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head, huh
Oh, you gotta keep your head
In the coldest time of year
Why is it so hot down here?
Hotter than a crucible
It ain't right and it ain't natural
Lover, you were gone so long
Lover, I was lonesome
So I built a found prayer
In the ground beneath your feet
Here I fashioned

thing s of steel,
oil drums and automobiles
Then I kept that furnace fair
with the fossils of the dead
Lover, when you feel that fire,
think of it as my desire
Think of it as my desire for you
lalalala lalala
Keep your head keep your head low
Is fin ished? you gotta
keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head ho
Not yet
Keep your head low
Is he always like this?
In the darkest time of year,
why is it so bright down here?
Brighter than a carnival,
it ain't right and
it ain't natural
Mama, ooh, lover,
you were gone so long
Lover, I was lonesome,
so I laid a power grid
In the ground on which you stood
Wasn't it electrifying
When I made the neon shine
Silver screen, cathode ray
Brighter than the light of day
Lover, when you see that glare
Think of it as my despair
Think of it as my despair for you
They can't find the tune
Orpheus
They can't feel the rhythm
Orpheus
King Hades is deafened
By a river of stone
Poor boy working on a saw
And Lady Persephone's blinded
By a river of wine
Living in an oblivion
He did not see the storm coming
As black gold flows
In the world down below
And her dark clouds roll
In the one up above
Look up you there
An d that is the reason
we're on this road
And the seasons are wrong,
and the wind is so strong
That's why times are so hard,
it's because the gods
The gods have forgotten the
song of their love
Singing
Low, keep your head, keep your head low
Oh, you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head up
Oh, you gotta keep your head low
Keep your head, keep your head low
Oh, you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head
Looking low and looking high
There is no food left to find
It's hard enough to feed yourself
Let alone somebody else
I'm trying to believe
That the song he's working on
Is gonna harbor me
From the wind, the wind, the wind
Eurydice was a hungry young girl
Give that back!
She was no stranger to the wind.
It's everything we have.
But she had not seen
nothing. Orpheus!
Like the mighty storm she
got caught in.
Orpheus! Children!
Only took a minute. Help!
But the wrath of the gods was in
Every year it's getting worse.
Hadestown, on earth
Did you think I'd be impressed
With this neon necropolis?
Lover, what have you become?
Coal cars and oil drums
Warehouse walls and factory floors
I don't know you anymore
And in the meantime up above
The harvest dies and people starve
Oceans rise and overflow
It ain't right and it ain't natural
Love for everything I do
I do it for the love of you
If you don't even want my love
I'll give it to someone who does

Someone grateful for the fate
Someone who appreciates
The comforts of a gilded cage
And doesn't try to fly away
The moment Mother

Nature calls
Someone who could love these walls
That hold her close, and keep her safe
And think of them as my embrace
Sing along, keep the hate,
keep the hate
Self -trust
Think of them as my help
Sing along, keep the hate, keep the hate
Harmony
Think of them as my embrace
Of you you
