Chant - Hadestown Original Broadway Company
Lyrics by：Anaïs Mitchell
Produced by：Anaïs Mitchell/David Lai/Todd Sickafoose
Low keep your head keep your head low
Oh you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head
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
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 foundry in the ground beneath your feet
Here I fashioned things of steel oil drums and automobiles
Then I kept that furnace fed 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
La-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la
La la-la-la-la-la
La la-la-la-la-la
La-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
Low keep your head keep your head low
Is it finished?
Oh you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head
Not yet
Oh you gotta keep your head low
Keep your head keep your head low
Is he always like this?
Oh you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head
Looking high and looking low for the food and firewood I know
We need to find and I am keeping one eye on the sky and
Tryin' to trust that the song he's working on is gonna
Shelter us from the wind the wind the wind
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
Lover you were gone so long lover I was lonesome
So I laid a power grid in the ground on which you stood
And 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 song
And Lady Persephone's blinded by a river of wine
Livin' in an oblivion
He did not see the storm coming on
His black gold flows in the world down below
And her dark clouds roll in the one up above
Look up
Keep your head low
And 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 of the gods
The gods have forgotten the song of their love
Singing"La-la-la-la-la-la"
Low keep your head keep your head low
Oh you gotta keep your head low
If you wanna keep your head
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
Lookin' low and lookin' 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
Shelter us
Only took a minute
Harbor me
But the wrath of the gods was in it
Every year it's getting worse Hadestown hell 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
Lover 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 her 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
Singing"La la-la-la-la-la-la"
Low keep your head keep your head
Shelter us
Think of them as my embrace
Low keep your head keep your head
Harbor me
Think of them as my embrace of you
