Devendra Banhart - Michigan State Lyrics






My friend has my favorite teeth
They bend backwards when she breathes
And it whistles
And sweetness is all sweetness was
Bees are blackeyed birds that buzz
And my love has my favorite ears
They lean forwards when she hears
Well evil is all evil was
Birds are blue-eyed knees that buzz

And I said oh michigan, michigan state
How I'd love to live in you
Oh I've never been to michigan state
Still I'd wanna live in you

And you can't talk without your tongue
Don't try and drown without your lungs son
Well my snail has my favorite slow
The 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 love to live in you
I've never been to michigan state
Still I'd want to live in you
Michigan state state state state

    This is the track that brought me to Devendra so many years ago now, whilst wandering the abbey at Whitby (UK). Cripple Crow was the last album I enjoyed unfortunately

    My friend has my favorite teeth
    They bend backwards when she breathes
    And it whistles
    And sweetness is all sweetness was
    Bees are blackeyed birds that buzz
    And my love has my favorite ears
    They lean forwards when she hears
    Well evil is all evil was
    Birds are blue-eyed knees that buzz

    And i said oh michigan, michigan state
    How i'd love to live in you
    Oh i've never been to michigan state
    Still i'd wanna live in you

    And you can't talk without your tongue
    Don't try and drown without your lungs son
    Well my snail has my favorite slow
    The 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 love to live in you
    I've never been to michigan state
    Still i'd want to live in you
    Michigan state state state state
