From the liner notes by Karl Sanders:
This song combines several chapters found within the deep recesses of the Egyptian “Book of the Dead”. The chapter titles are so ridiculously long that to fully quote them here would be out of the question.
The chapters coincide because they each deal with the...
Khensu Neter Hetef
Who possesseth absolute dominion over the evil spirits that infest the earth and sky
He of the silence of the moon
Giver of oracles
He that must forever wax and wane
Thou art in union with Thoth
The excellent Tehuti of truth and time
Keeper of the lunar cycle
Whose hands are able
Whose tongue is mighty in speech
Author of the works of knowledge
Writer of the ancient wisdom
Master of the words of power
Obeisance before giving breath to the inert one
In the presence of the crescent-shaped horns
Lord of the two horns
God of the full moon
Aah Tehuti
As it was for Thoth so shall it be for me
As it was for Thoth so shall it be for me
[Guitar Solo]
As it was for Thoth so shall it be for me
As it was for Thoth so shall it be for me
I am he who sendeth forth terror into the domain of rain and thunder
I have made my knife to flourish along with the knife which is in the hand of Thoth
Lord of the two horns
God of the full moon
I am he who calleth down curses and commandeth the elements unto darkness
I hath uttered the hidden words
Even unto the divine words which art written in the book of Thoth
Written in the book of Thoth
Written in the book of Thoth
Written in the book of Thoth
Written in the book of Thoth
Written in the book of Thoth
