Inanna The Opera - Retrieval Lyrics

INANNA: Uruk, I hold in my hand, descriptions of a nation
Now I can reveal the plans to elevate our station
It might require some work, but it won't be too long
Til this city is a thing of beauty, and all will sing its song

I will show you how to rule, and judge with fair solution

By these moves you've orchestrated
Your trickery won't work, for we're not blind

NINSHUBUR: I'm surprised that you would want the crowd to hear your ranting
Do you want them to think that Ea spends all his time...
recanting?

ISIMUD: Would that be the crowd's impression?

NINSHUBUR: Easily! At her suggestion
They'll be at your throat in no time flat

ISIMUD: Don't think that this is the ending

INANNA: You fool! You're just pretending -
You can'
