Interesting. The lyrics posted are definitely (but only vaguely) related to the one Gordon Bok recorded as "Belamena." The lyrics posted seem like a bowdlerized--and then copyrighted--version of the much earthier story Gordon recorded. Since I'm at work and don't have the liner notes he wrote, I can't tell you what he said about his version. Will post those when I can. In the meantime, would be really interested in seeing if anyone else knows more history on this one.
