Backpacka Baba |
Crime’s the other side of what’s right |
Baba lives on the wrong side of the earth |
On a plain flat planet he would’ve been white |
Nobleman by name aristocrat by birth |
Selling shades on the beach by daily routine |
Matches the irony of your Western magazine |
Papayabananacakecoconutjuice! |
Baby with the basket pushes fruits and news |
White man came across the sea |
To change my under-developed diaper |
White man came across to me |
To wipe my ass with tabloid paper |
I’m a passionate man help me first |
Ease my hunger quench my thirst |
Can you see yourself devoured |
I’ll do anything to stay empowered |
Part of him feels like some new kind of Noah |
But all he can carry is some hectograms of Goa |
Big Mother Ocean shut the stereo down |
He travelled to listen not to see |
On Arambol Beach his guitar will soon sound |
When the last black man’s crossed the sea |
His earth turned flat his passport photo black |
Backpacker Baba’s never coming back |
