Well an amphimacer is a foot, whereas this line can't be treated as one foot, so I wouldn't expect there to be anything comparable. It's just trimeter, iambic or trochaic depending on context. I'm not sure the rest of the lyrics of the song establish a clear context, so it's a matter of indifference.

But maybe I, too, will be enlightened.
