about

Between 1559 and 1584, Mathematician and astrologer, John Dee is listed as Rector of the Parish of Leadenham Church. Dee dedicated most of his life studying alchemy and Hermetic philosophy. Opposite the church of St. Swithun, is a shaded pool known as St. Anne's Well. Crows nest in the trees that surround this murky swamp.
Taken from the album 'Sodden Dogs and Blind, Winged Horses'.

lyrics

John Dee is king of crows
A shaman in his parson’s clothes
Like a man possessed of the ancient hell
John Dee is king of crows

John Dee is king of crows
Arrives with gifts of cross and rose
As he walks the streets of Leadenham
He is your magic man

John Dee is king of crows
A druid of the Templar stone
Buried beneath the heath and sand
He is our magic man.

John Dee is king of crows
Elizabethan lord who knows
Who St. Swithun lost to Baphomet
John Dee is king of crows

John Dee is king of crows
His sign is carved in stone and snow
Above the heath of Leadenham
He is our magic man

John Dee is king of crows
John Dee is king of crows
John Dee is king of crows
John Dee is king of crows
John Dee is king of crows
John Dee is king of crows
