Devendra Banhart - Shabop Shalom lyrics
Your rating:
Our story begins on a sunday afternoon Just between halfway tree and spanish town Where a young boy Not yet the cock o’ the walk that he would soon become, Was lying on the grass and takin’ in the sweet and sensuous scent of hibiscus That languidly lilted along the summer breeze It was at this precise moment that he saw her. Her walk was soft and delicate with a thaumaturgical touch That only a rabbi’s daughter could have Before their eyes had even met Her luminous lips had already lured him in Salvation winked with he promise of a briss held at pinnacle And a congregation of sages bunny hopping and chicken dancing to yiddish mento Then their eyes linked An aeon blinked amharic vows were scryed upon their hearts Just to think this could all be with a frenectomy and a few words of love. My shabop shalom baby Won’t you shabop shalom with me Under the old banana tree Whoa, whoa My sweet telavivian lamb‘s bread My heart can act as an emoliant And you’ll never ever say Get bent! No, no Todamama todamama Todamama todamama Todamama Todamama todamama Todamama todamama Todamama All the signals that i’m sendin i’ll keep sending And on the constantillionth time I’ll make you mine Yes, i swear i will Your sweet supple breasts are golden ghettos Soft statues in stilettos Two wise men instead of three Blow a kiss just for me I’m ever in a foul mood I’ve gotta see you in your talmud And so happy in makes me (who who who who who) You wanna know who Who wrote the book of jude? She wants to know who (who who who who who) Who wrote the dead sea scrolls? Well, i did, i did Yeah Yes, i did, i did I did, i did Mm-hm! I did, i did Hexakosioi hexekonta hex phobia can be a fun ordeal I swear by solomon’s seal Honey, when it comes to love There’s a fire in the deep bend of my heart Givin’ me the heeby-geebys You see I know the land of wood and water is Merely fooder for the loves slaughters And darling, I’ve watched you cake walk to the immaculate conception For far too long Walls are wailing I’m livicated to you Ahaba raba Ahaba raba for you We’re in heaven We’re in heaven, it’s true I’m in ascending I’m ascending tonight with you
