Baobabs Lyrics

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
