Liner Notes
One for the pagans!
Lyrics
Named after Woden
Who was eloquent,
And able to travel
Guardianship of the dead
Least that’s what I read online
Somewhere
Now it’s just called Wednesday
It doesn’t have the same ring
Just like the roman god Mercury
Who was eloquent as well
He could travel fast
He escorted the dead to the underworld
Is that the same as hell?
I don’t know
Now it’s just called Wednesday
It’s not the same
People hold associations
They don’t need to be true
For some folk it’s just another day
For others it’s just Wednesday
What’s in a name?
Is it based on false claims?
Was it really Woden’s day or Mercury
It’s just Wednesday
