Lyrics In the Garden of Gilgamesh - Steve Kilbey

In the garden of Gilgamesh
Adam tastes the apple flesh
Then without warning
The early truth was dawning

The cherubs and seraphim
Coming down to cherish him
Jehovah says, "Now stop that"
"There′s nobody but me can cop that"

And the serpent with his glassy eye
Look up into the burning sky
His tongue tasted the ash
And his teeth began to gnash

In the garden of Gilgamesh
Angel fruit delivered fresh
Panthers walking on the lawn
Falcon riding on the storm
