Baobabs - Regina Spektor
You have tamed me Now you must take me How am I supposed to be? I don't have my thorns now And I feel them sprouting They'll grow right through if I don't watch it They'll grow through even if I watch it And a sunset couldn't save me now These baobabs, and baobabs And baobabs some more But you cant out-wait fate You have tamed me Now you must take me T-ta t-t-ta t-t-t-ta And I wouldn't raise my child inside the city anyway They grow up too savvy and they grow up too fast. And they know about buying shit and they know about sex And they know about investment banking and also about brokerage firms And the know about the numbers and they know about the words And they know about the bottom lines and also about stones And they know about careers and about the real deals And they all grow up and be come people's people with people skills. You have tamed Now you must take me How am I supposed to be? I don't have my thorns now You have tamed me Now you must take me How am I supposed to be? I don't have my thorns
