Baobabs lyrics

Artist  : Regina Spektor 
Song : Baobabs



 Send "Baobabs" Ringtone to your Cell 

 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
them

They'll grow right through even if I watch
them

And a sunset couldn't save me now



These baobabs, and baobabs, and baobabs some
more

But you can't out weight fate

Now you have tamed me

Now you must take me, ta-ta-take



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 burns



And they 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 become people's people
with people skills



But you have tamed me

Now you must take me

How am I supposed to be

I don't have my thorns now



And you have tamed me

Now you must take me

How am I supposed to be

I don't have my thorns
