A shapeshifting giant clam from China. Maybe not the worst creature to encounter.
lyrics
蜃 shen/chen/shèn
Monstrous, monstrous mollusk
Belching bubbles, belch
City, city scapes
Shèn, Shèn, Shèn
Life at the bottom of the sea
Light led you to death
Line the caskets to protect
Lime mausoleum walls
Making, making mirages
Shapeshift, shapeshift shell
Produce, produce pearls
Shèn, Shèn, Shèn
Largest clam, tell me who I am
Tell me all the secrets of my heart
Giant clam, I can’t even start
Figure out what’s inside,
Monstrous clam, what do you hide?
