The fourth track of The ArchAndroid, “Sir Greendown” is a love song from Cyndi Mayweather to her human lover Anthony Greendown.
This song, lyrically and musically, takes its cues from medieval romance adventures, plucking deliberate symbols to evoke notions of chivalry and storybook love.
[Verse 1]
Sir Greendown
Come wake me in the night
The dragon wants a bite
Of our love
[Chorus]
The flower and the golden hand
Wooden wings and clouds of sand
Ooh, Sir Greendown
[Verse 2]
Sir Greendown
Let's leave in an hour
Meet me at the tower
Ride your horse
[Chorus]
Here the dolphins walk like men
Here the cyborgs have a plan
Sir Greendown
I need your shining light, ooh
[Outro]
Let's leave in an hour
Meet me at the tower
I'm in love
