Momus – The Baobab Tree

From the album ‘MomusMcClymont Two‘ (2014).

Lyrics

Agatha Moudio
Widow of a Romeo
Her jealous husband murdered me
They hanged him from the baobab tree

Agatha Moudio
Thought that God had video
So she acted honestly
To the point of cruelty

Morals now are on the slide
We’ve all got stuff to hide
Some have lovers on the side
Others just lie for the sake of lying

If you wish to push and poke
Push and poke like decent folk
Then you’ve got to learn to lie
Learn to live a double life

At the big antheap and by the bridge
I see him all around the village
Sometimes wearing devil horns
Sometimes with nothing on

The little white lies you refuse to tell
Sometimes lead to bloody hell
When your husband murders me
Under the baobab tree

Agatha Moudio
Widow of a Romeo
Her jealous husband murdered me
They hanged him from the baobab tree
