Beck - Milk & Honey
I'm just going to start off on a completely unrelated note by saying I love ampersands and got really excited when I had to type it for the title of this song.
Anyway Milk & Honey. Great Beck song. It's largely underrated and from my favorite Beck album, Midnight Vultures. I love the chorus in this this song, with the backup vocals singing "Milk and Honey" in a almost Mo-town R&B fashion and the barrage of sci-fi guitar and synth effects.
Try listening to this song on your iPod and walking around. You cant help but feel like your putting your groove strut on.
Don't take your red ribbons off
You're about to make a fool of yourself
In the aluminum sunset, drinking from a drain
I'm a hundred miles behind myself
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Make a poor boy wanna run
Milk and honey, do you wanna love me
Under the aluminum sun
Did you hear those war-torn stories
Where the lifeguards slept in the streets
In the jungle lands with the cold cola cans
You'll get the keys to the city for free
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Bring a poor boy to his knees
Milk and honey, now it isn't funny
Living in a garden of sleaze.
Well, I can smell the V.D. in the club tonight.
Excuse me, please. Would you tell me how to get to the Soviet embassy?
Bangkok athletes in the biosphere
Arkansas wet dreams, we all disappear
Kremlin mistress, ring the Buddha chimes
She slips me ruffies, receding hairlines
She's all right. . .touching my body
She's all right. . .on my computer
She's all right. . .selling me watches
She's all right. . .ring on my finger
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Bring a poor boy to his knees
Milk and honey, now it isn't funny
Living in a garden of sleaze
Milk and, milk and?do you wanna??honey!
Milk and honey touching my body
Milk and honey
Milk and honey
Milk and honey
Milk and honey. . .
