Makeshift Swahili Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
makeshift she sings in her native german,
you try to understand what she's trying to say
she says "your only as good
as the word you understand"
and you, you don't understand a word
tower of babel, swahili, it's all greek to me
bi-lingual, double dutch, gift of the gab
we give you firewater you give us your land,
but it's too late now to start complaining,
too late
monosyllabic, hieroglyphic, etcetera, etcetera
new lamps for old
rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb
rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb
"white man speak with forked tongue",
you try to understand what she's trying to say
she says "your only as good
as the word you understand"
and you, you don't understand a word
tower of babel, swahili, it's all greek to me
bi-lingual, double dutch, gift of the gab
we give you firewater you give us your land,
but it's too late now to start complaining,
too late
monosyllabic, hieroglyphic, etcetera, etcetera
new lamps for old
rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb
rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb
