M.I.A. Lyrics

"Mango Pickle Down River" lyrics


(with The Wilcannia Mob)

First of all I wanna say I don't even know why you act that way
My name is maya and people always say
I act kinda strange like a dooba weh
I like fish and mango pickle
When I climb trees
Them feet them tickle
I'm broke this month didn't pay rent
I had to jump town and my money's all spent 2x

Rode the bmx we walked through the bush
The boys fight to ride it, but I just let em push
Keith stole an egg from a lil kookoo
Kept it safe in his mouth, while he danced the jookoo jookoo

There's only one ocean that got fish left
One day we'll have to be a really good chef
And I don't mean us in the bush making meth
Boys if you catch meth you catch your death
When I said that Keith sneezed and had a chick
Broke the little egg in his mouth in little bits

When it's hot we go down the river and swim
When we go fishing we 're catching a brim
When the rivers high we jump off the bridge
And then we go home and play some didge
