Stonehenge Lyrics
Where the banshees live and they do live well
Stonehenge
Where a man is a man and the children dance to
the pipes of pan
Stonehenge
Tis a magic place where the moon doth rise
With a dragon's face
Stonehenge
Where the virgins lie
And the prayer of devils fill the midnight sky
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there
I will show you how

The "Stonehenge" sequence was a parody on Black Sabbath's stage set from 1983. Black Sabbath's 1983-84 tour, in support of their hit album "Born Again" (#4 in the UK), included Stonehenge monoliths so embarrassingly huge that only 3 could fit on the stage, leaving little room for the band. They even had a dwarf actor who'd appear on top of the monoliths at the start of each show.
Cool song though.

While listening to this song I worry that I can never again listen to Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, or some of Led - Zeppelin and keep a straight face. It so accurately lampoons the mystical side of those bands that people actually think it is a really scary song. It is freakin hilarious.

bring out the 18 inch stonehenge!

Weird song -- no special meaning. It mocks other rock songs..and in the mvoe "This is Spinal Tap", the way they perform it is hilarious!

This song is awesome and original. It really inspired some of the music I've written.

Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap, yeah!

Dareka you're mostly right. Although it was particularly inspired by the more 'occult' bands, infact the performance is said to be based on a similar misshap that black sabbath apparently had to endure whilst performing a song with the same name.
Of course i may be missinformed but who cares. Its a great song and a great movie either way.

I love it when they play this in the movie, and they have the 2 midgets dancing round the little of stonehenge, the look on Michael McKean's face just cracks me up.

But wasn't the Spinal Tap movie made before 1983?
It's from '84.
It's from '84.

I take that back - made in 1984.
