You don't have to praise me Nor do it in creole Not all smiles are friendly Not all our dessert So I've been hiding As a part of this neighbourhood And I'll be invisible Among the unseen
I'm the son of an honest man I've learned to keep the balance right Moon beams weigh your wishes Daydream had some answers The nurses all told me that they smelled the morning The silence of the streams There's no way to get me out of this
I'm the son of an honest man His eyes are open in the night Moon beams weigh your wishes Daydreams of ports and princes The car has a bone you can use for your magic In Egypt they were gods And I've got this and all my voodoo dolls When the promise ?? And the light in your palm is a snake Don't ask me
