CocoRosie - Smokey Taboo Lyrics
They call her smokey taboo
I got your name tattooed
High like a helium balloon
Midnight to noon
I'm a desert child
I like to look up wild at an infinite sky
Twinkling with diamonds
It's true I get depressed in fancy hotel rooms
Undressed with nothing to flaunt but my loneliness
Thinking of the night song of your hair
Premature as evening falls
It calls to me
Interrupted by the sirens in the street
Somedays you're like an anchor on my heart
More like rotten milk and rancid meat to me
I prefers when it is free
Like looking at the stars
Don't need no fancy cars
When we first
Our kisses sparked
Yeah I'm afraid of sharks
But not the dark

*Aguante las CocoRosie*
They look like dream characters😱
OMFGGG! I am in a loving fixation with this cut! First learned of these girls when one-half member Bianca spoke highly of Missy Elliott in January 2006 by way of "Dazed & Confused" when she praised Missy's latest album "The Cookbook" (2005) and loved the eff out of Missy's sneakers collection. So sweet. Love these ladies and love this crazy good song alongside "Lemonade".
Amé...muy belle.

8 Years ago, I met a girl who loved CocoRosie. Nowadays I don't know anything about her, but I still listening to this songs and thinking about her :)
CocoRosie is magic ♥
I found this like a week ago and I’m obsessed. It’d been great If I knew about them before
I had a girl in my school who always wanted to marry cocorosie. I love to listen to the songs and remember her :)
No the same but similar memories
Janire M. We share the same story ❤️ it was 10 years ago when I was only 12. I remember going to Christian camp and singing to this out loud and my camp counselor listed to them and was shocked I knew their music 😂
Janire M. Same! But I know nothing of the person I was then, either.. I think he was happier and more willing for adventure.. I miss us both..
i just came here to get smoke and high weed

They call her smokey taboo
I got your name tattooed
High like a helium balloon
Midnight to noon
I'm a desert child
And mountains make me nauseous
I like to look up wild at an infinite sky
Twinkling with diamonds
It's true I get depressed in fancy hotel rooms
Undressed with nothing to flaunt but my loneliness
Thinking of the night song of your hair
Premature as evening falls
It calls to me
Interrupted by the sirens in the street
Somedays you're like an anchor on my heart
They say that stolen water tastes sweet
More like rotten milk and rancid meat to me
I prefers when it is free
Like looking at the stars
Don't need no fancy cars
When we first
Our kisses sparked
Yeah I'm afraid of sharks
But not the dark
I, too, am afraid of sharks and I will not apologize for that. I used to be afraid of the dark but I warmed up to it fast. Hm its always dark inside of our bodies if all goes well
High like helium balloons
In an infinite sky
Twinkling with diamonds
When first our kisses sparked
Crystal heaven
This was crystal heaven...
Heaven...
The lyrics are like modern goth genius...
I'm pretty sure that, outside of terrible musicians for children, CocoRosie are the only ones who can pull off a line like "I am afraid of sharks, but not the dark."
Stokes A I always feel like the darkness represents our greatest fears in a way of them presenting our thoughts. I think smokey taboo is content with herself and has a clear idea of who she is and what she stands for. She might be afraid of the surroundings but she's not illuminating the fear herself. That makes sense in my head although it's hard to explain lol
i always thought she said "i am afraid of sharks , but not to dive"...was so much more deep that way for me
Sharks represent a physical fear, while the dark represents a
metaphysical fear of the unknown. Bianca (Coco) is probably saying that she is
afraid of the physical world and the harms that may come, but not of the
emotional realm. Its her feelings and emotions (dark) that keeps her going through a world of threats (sharks)
I just came here to smoke weed and get high.
the weed bring me here too
no comment du bisch der killer
That's bad
No comments, you are a nag guy, no need of more comments
Funny i came here to listen cocorosie xD
pathetic
That you are.
Whaattt!?
lame ass shit fuck them
I remember when we were obsessed with them and you made this video miss you!
this is such a cute comment :')
Eugene, you really should be careful with that axe, y'know
is this song about smoking weed?
Their greatest song? THE greatest song?
Madonna 😋
is it bad that I think it wouldn't be too farfetched if they had armpit hair and smelled like patchoulli?
Does anyone know other similar songs pls ???
Not really spot on but i'd recommend both Joanna Newsome and Owen Pallett.
I've been obsessed with CocoRosie for 10 years +! I've spent a lot of time trying to find similar artists but few measure up. Definitely try Wilsen Anahita, Dillon 13 35, and Daughter Landfill, (all available here on YouTube.) Above comment about Joanna Newsome is a good tip too!
Amazing artists.Those girls are incredible, full of talent.
Touching heart and mind.
Good shit need more ppl in the world like u girls
This is the most pretentious narcissistic garbage I ever heard. Is this make-up or musi.
