about

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?

Shèn, Shèn, Shèn
Shèn, Shèn, Shèn
Shèn, Shèn, Shèn

Monstrous, monstrous mollusk
Life at the bottom of the sea
Making, making mirages
Largest clam, tell me who I am
