It's actually 'Head of a man, shaped like a lion' or 'shape of a lion',
echoing the verse, 'Shaped like a lion, it has the head of a man.'

Much Joni

Subject: Unknown Lyrics of Slouching Toward Bethlehem


> Anyone blessed with a finer sense of hearing than myself would be very
kind to tell me what is Joni singing in the end of nearly every chorus of
Slouching Toward Bethlehem. After the line "...to be born" Joni's back
voices go "oh-wwwwweeeeee" and then a line that sounds like "hell of a man"
and then a line that sounds like "a shimmering iron" (only sounds like, for
both lines). I'm 100% positive Joni's singing words in both cases. Been
trying to solve this riddle ever since i first heard the song. Please help.
