beatenberg - cape to rio lyrics
[verse 1]
she went from cape to cairo
i went from cape to rio
she drinks her tanqueray
but it’s mainstay for me, oh
my heart and soul are hardened
i built the hanging gardens
i let my tears flow
i let my tears flow
[pre-chorus]
oh, what bitter stuff
[chorus]
don’t say my song’s too slow
don’t talk ’cause you don’t know
the place i come from is a place you never go
no, no it’s not enough
i want more of this bitter stuff
you see me swaying as you’re praying for my fall
[verse 2]
i try to understand her
outside on the blue veranda
when she feels pleasure
it’s a measure of my worth
they say never say never
but my name’s nebuchadnezzar
and i’ll never let it go
i’ll never let it go
[pre-chorus]
no, it’s not enough
[chorus]
don’t say my song’s too slow
don’t talk ’cause you don’t know
the place i come from is a place you never go
no, no it’s not enough
i want more of this bitter stuff
you see me swaying as you’re praying for my fall
[verse 3]
she makes the feeling purer
with a dash of angostura
i’ve learned the art
of being everywhere at once
i built the cape to cairo
i drank the cape to rio
i died an emperor
and came back as a griot
[chorus]
don’t say my song’s too slow
don’t talk ’cause you don’t know
the place i come from is a place you never go
no, no it’s not enough
i want more of this bitter stuff
you see me swaying as you’re praying for my fall
