Backpaka Baba Lyrics

Crime is the other side of what's right (Crime is 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)
Nobleman by name aristocrat by birth

Shades on the beach by daily routine (Shades on the beach by daily routine)
(Matches the irony of your Western magazine)
Papayabananacakecoconutjuice! (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 the sea
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
(x3)

(???)

Crime is the other side of what's right (He traveled to listen not to see)
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 (White man came across the sea)
To change my under-developed diaper
White man came across the sea
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

Big Mother Ocean shut the stereo down
He traveled 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 is never coming back
(x3)
