Oh Karibou, Karibou
I love your call
For every forgotten tune
You still sing along
Your sweet velvet voice
Like a flute in the dawn
Your record is one that’s worth hearing
Each track is my favorite
It’s too hard too choose
A slave to your voice, Karibou
Oh Karibou, lover
And painter of art
Impressionist expert
Of colors beyond
The canvas your city
The brushstroke your bond
Both my favorite painter and painting
Monet and Renoir don’t got nothin on you
My impression of you, Karibou
(Harmonica Break)
Oh Karibou, scholar
A brain like Einstein
If knowledge is power
Than you’re set for life
Unlike those of us who let history rewind
The owner of what you are thinking
You fight for the facts
That have made this world true
A wordsmith by name, Karibou
Karibou, Lover
I’ll stand by your side
When the rest follow gray
We select black and white
We speak the same language
Conversing in rhyme
No force can divorce what we’re making
Unlike the two timers and lovers they lose
We stay thick as thieves, Karibou

Kidnapped me
The afternoon saw us catching up
Talked for hours as the sun went down
You told me about lost love
And I spoke of my own
And by nightfall, the music had begun
We're down here in Houston
Pretending things are fine
And for a weekend they are
You get the melody, and then I'll harmonize
We're down here in Houston tonight
Afterwards, we drove around
Exploring the town
And at the shady motel, we passed out
In the morning, we arose
To lousy cups of joe
Blasting Flaming Lips and Leonard Cohen
Rides and tides, they passed us by
On Kemah Boardwalk
Filming dolly shots out by the docks
We head out to Cedric's house
To work he's gotta go
Hunger Games and editing unfold
We drive back on Exxon gas
A few more hours to go
Recommend movies and TV shows
Standing on my driveway
Share a goodbye and a hug
Carved our names one weekend...
In Houston
