Kate Bush - "Babooshka"

Feb 27, 2011 03:02

she wanted to test her husband
she knew exactly what to do...
a pseudonym to fool him...
she couldn't have made a worse move

she sent him scented letters
and he received them with a strange delight
just like his wife...
but how she was before the tears
and how she was before the years flew by
and how she was when she was beautiful

she signed the letter
"all yours, Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka, ya-ya!
all yours, Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka, ya-ya!"

she wanted to take it further,
so she arranged a place to go
to see if he
would fall for her incognito

and when he laid eyes,
he got the feeling they had met before
uncanny, how she
reminds him of his little lady
capacity to give him all he needs
just like his wife before she freezed on him
just like his wife when she was beautiful

he shouted out
"I'm all yours, Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka, ya-ya!
all yours, Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka, ya-ya!"
