lyrics

The wolf has moved on
I woke up and he was gone
I heard he found a washerwoman in a fishing town
And she has a great big barrel
For washing out his sheep's apparel
I must find a pen and page and put this burden down

And to beg the question
Who would have thought I'd miss a wolf
Like waking up in Stockholm and thinking I'm in love
The wolf has moved on

The wind is picking up again
It's picking up again

Wild blows the wind from this hillside
Wild blows the wind

It's blowing down to the town
Where the fish are brought in
Finding the wolf

One push to the chest and his back to the barrel
Thrust under the chin and he's in
No chance to clamber out
Black water up his snout

The wolf has moved on
I woke up and he was gone
This is the sound of the Wicc

And the people of the town came down and bore the corpse away
In a grave procession to the market square
And there they tore asunder
The victualler took the entrails
And fed them to the dogs
And the tailor tacked the tail upon the town wall
The mayor felt the pelt should be preserved for ceremony
And the fishermen rowed out
Hung his head from a gibbet on a rock out at sea
With the skulls of the boneyard wreckers

What of the bones?
She took the bones
She took the bones
She took the bones and ground them down

Oh oh the Wicc is awake
Wild blows the wind
