Come back to me I’ll meet you at the coconut treeRumble down the highway on the white yellow red striped bus Come back to meCome back to me you’ll see Come back to me Come on back to me this week

Through the green jungle of plenty I have to cut my way throughPass the markets and animals that are peeping and watching you moveTake this bus out bike my way right through this messTake this bus out bike my way right through this week

Come back to me I’ll meet you at the coconut treeCome back to meI’ll rumble down rumble down this highway

I know you thought you saw me before I was freeIn my better dressed days I won’t comb my hair no moreIt’s too late for me cost too much for me you’ll seeIt’s too late for me cost too much for me to be here

If I tell you how my story ended will you learn from itWhere I stand I watch you climbing the face of the long lasting day

Don’t you stop this, don’t you stop your fightingDon’t you stop now, don’t you stop your tryingBaby pleaseDon’t you stop this don’t you stop your fightingDon’t you stop now don’t you stop your bitingBaby please love come back to meI’ll wait one last time I’m sleeping in this heatCome back to me I’ll meet you at the coconut treeCome back to me I’ll meet you at the bottom of my worries now I worried about this place I’ll wait one last time I’m sleeping under this leafOoooooo,ooooooo,oooooooUuuuuuu,uuuuuuuuu,uuuuuHear me sleeping right here I won’t wait much longer till I’d see me disappear

It happened to me again (2x)I can see it coming when you come, around the endIt’s over when you die leave a bloody corpse behindChoices don’t have to make senseJust pick and be content (2x)Don’t let it tender, you’ll feel better when you’re in the holeWhere your sorrow beginsTeaser not a pleaser I made you think this was real Now you’ll know it’s nothing but a kill a kill a killer (2x)Just pick and be content (2x)Kisses poison I can taste the bitterness within it settles in my chestBeg forgetting letting all the binding loose like bats that break awayLike bats that break the dayLike bats that break awayLike bats that break off

How do you expect to live your life with every moment,Will you survive?From now on you’ll always be known asLa señora de la moda (6x)

Twists and turns tangles up my lineFrame by frame I won’t forget you’re mineI will communicate at this timeHow much you mean to me You can read it on the propaganda stapled under your Bodhi Tree

I’m gonna walk right through the sandI’m gonna walk right through this land

She moves me like a limber piece of timeI’m all about this I’m gonna feel just fineShe pulled me in right into her fireI’ll hold on to her even tighter That all that matters to me is that we go home back to our Bodhi Tree

I’m gonna walk right through the sandI’m gonna walk right through this land

Life is tangled vision mangled angled strange but it feels fineWrangled up in languorous meandering dreams climbElevated concentrated celebrate thisUntethered full feathered an undulating driftChemical magnetic nuclear very strong Milliseconds bend when they beat through my heart songPounding out telegraphing calling out your nameFound you underneath the Bodhi tree don’t know from where you came

Gonna walk right through this sand Gonna walk right through this land Lord have mercy (2x)

Llevo una decada en la libertadDescanso y me pongo a pensarloEse dia no puedo olvidarloEn la selva murio mi enemigo

Vaya vaya soy libre (4x)

No puedo seguir asiYo fui el que te quiso matar asiYa no quiero vivir asi No puedo andar sin ti

Porque el leon el leon se lo comioEl leon el leon se lo artoEl leon el leon lo matoEl leon el leon se lo comio

Vaya vaya soy libre (4x)

En la madrugada lo encontraron En la tarde lo enteraronEsta ves no puedo celebrar La muerte de mi enemigoPorque el leon el leon lo matoEl leon el leon lo masticoEl leon el leon se aprovecho

I have missed out but I can smell her morning cookingIf I tried, if I only tried to reach outToday I’m on my wayI’m gonna learn what it is to chip away the stoneThis is where I’ll transform, seek new shelter I won’t be leaving here aloneIt’s gonna take two steps forward but not look backI’ll dig up what I buried here and think way backIt’s nice and cool in this heat (2x)

She walked for water, once had some landShe tells me while rubbing her arms, speaking of the pastAnd shuts the lights off to protect her eyesShe transmitted to me in the dark how we spoke in dreams at nightShe asked me why I stayed away, as apposed to how safe is the wayShe’s firm and she takes a standShe’s firm and she raises her hand Refuse to die (2x)

Hold on to the walls, step slowly down the hallDon’t bother to ease my needs, if you slip my heart will fall

Ooooooo,ooooooo,ooooo

Walked up the hill to see I made it up aliveDon’t bother to feed me please, I can hardly complete your needs

Oooooooooooooooooooooo

Lesson 3 living is one of many tasksCatch the rain it flows warm every nightWith plenty to eat but plenty of necessityIt’s taking a toll on our separated soulsShe asked me how I stayed away, as apposed to how I felt this way

She’s firm and she takes a stand She’s firm and she raises her handRefuse to die (2x)I’m on my way (2x)Take a stand (2x)
