lyrics

Solvers with their puzzle cubes
Out in their gardens
After they're done
They shed their robes, revealing
Underneath a carapace that's hardened
Wrapped around an uncoiled eel thing

Oh, so that's what they are
Solvers really are just Loshnongs
And Loshnongs do retire
To little holes in Stead's walls

Don't you want to know how they do it?
Don't you wan to know what's going on?
Don't you want to know the esoteric secrets
of the Loshnong?

Their secrets are their own
And not for us to know
But with their true selves shown
At least we now know a bit more
About them

Now what is it with cubes here
Have you noticed?
How the Meteon was one
And now this
I sense a strange geometric purpose
But after all, mathematical spirits

Are the crux of it all
And maybe just like Loshnongs
And Loshnongs often crawl
In a straight line, single file

Don't you want to know where they're going?
Don't you want to know why they're so long?
Don't you want to know the old hermetic knowledge
of the Loshnong?

The pages now must end
But we've only just begun
For this is only Book One
Half of a whole
A-L
But the Alphabestiary continues
In Book Two....
