Devendra Banhart - Michigan State lyrics

rate me

My friend has my favorite teeth, they bend backwards when she breathes

And it whistles

Sweetness is all sweetness was

Bees are black eyed birds that buzz

My love has my favorite ears, they lean forward when she hears

Well evil is all evil was

Bees are blue eyed knees that buzz

And I said, oh, Michigan, Michigan state

How I'd love to live in you

I've never been to Michigan state, still I want to live in you

Oh you can't speak without your tongue

Don't try to drown without your lungs

Well my snail has my favorite slow, shell helps the snail still the skin lays

low

And if my snail has my favorite slow, then my cold has my favorite snow

But if my snail's cold and comes to a halt, then my sea has my favorite salt

The salt keeps the sea from feeling sweet, and my toes have my favorite feet

And if I sweat salt and the Earth sweats heat

Oh Michigan, Michigan state

How I'd loved to live in you

I've never been to Michigan state, still I'd love to live in you

Michigan st-st-st-st-ate
