Done For lyrics by Jorge Rivera-Herrans
Lady of the palace, sorry that I ask this
But I hope that I’ve been misinformed
I sent out some scouts to take a look around through here
And they wound up at your doors
Through the years we seldom
Get a warm welcome
So I must ask just to be sure
Did you do something to them?
Who, me?
All I did was reveal their true forms
You turned them into pigs
Huh
I don’t know who you are nor why you’re here
But let me make this one thing clear
I’ve got people to protect
Nymphs I can’t neglect
So I’m not taking chances, dear
If you make one wrong move, then you’re done for
Anything I don’t approve, then you’re done for
I could put a spell on you and you’re done for
Boy, you better run or soon you will done for
I don’t mean to tip your scale but
You will fail at
Placing any spells on me
I just ate a flower
One that claims your power
So you better cower now and flee
You must be a liar
Mortals can’t acquire
Moly without dire consequence
Then I must be a God like you
‘Cause I got this root from the ground with my bare hands
Hermes gave it to you, didn’t he?
Okay, fine, yes, but regardless
You and I are now evenly matched
Our fates are intertwined, they’re attached
I’ve got people to protect, friends I can’t neglect
So now there is no turning back
You’ve made your one wrong move, now you’re done for
I will be the one to prove that you’re done for
Not even a spell saves you, ’cause you’re done for
Oh, you better run or soon you will be done for
You’ve lost
My nymphs are like my daughters
I protect them at all costs
The last time we let strangers live
We faced a heavy loss
You’ve given me no reason to
Bestow you with my trust
But everyone’s true colours are
Revealed in acts of lust
I’m not sure I follow
