lyrics

Avery was a smart young lad when he came to Alba Mons
Quickly setting up a new life and exploring the grounds
Among all the beauty, he found he was deceived
There was a mean old giant who controlled society

The giant put him to work at the rope store in town
For the previous owner had been hung for speaking out
Avery took to ropemaking and had not one complaint
For he had a plan for freedom from this awful state

Whoa, Whoa he’d never known such a tyrant
whoa whoa avery and the giant

Avery found that making rope was quite a cinch
But when people came by the store, he never sold an inch
Saying he was sold out or still learning the trade
With him still being new they all bought the charade

Working both day and night for about a month
He looked at all his bundles and knew he had enough
When the giant was napping all he did was tie him down
And if you visit there today there’s big bleached bones still all around
