This song essentially paraphrases Bilmington's "A history of The European Unicorn", which is a very long and boring account of the migration from Sub-Saharan Africa of one of the worlds largest ever Unicorn herds.
It charts the movements of the initially numerous and quite un-remarkable Equus Ferus Caballus, to the development of magical powers and its eventual extinction at the hands of Irish pirates.
lyrics
i glow when i am endangered, find me in enchanted glades and don't approach me if a stranger, in a crowd i fade away
i was brought here by a sailor on a boat from far away and i am doomed to be a failure, unicorns are turning gay

Recorded over the space of a year, the vivid pop songs on the latest from themme fatale match sugary hooks with diaristic lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 13, 2022
