My Mother once told me of a place |
| [00:13.63] |
With waterfalls and unicorns flying. |
| [00:18.33] |
Where there was no suffering, no pain. |
| [00:21.99] |
Where there was laughter instead of dying. |
| [00:26.34] |
I always thought she’d made it up. |
| [00:29.54] |
To comfort me in times of pain. |
| [00:33.29] |
But now I know that place is real, |
| [00:37.45] |
Now I know it’s name. |
| [00:41.35] |
Sal Tlay Ka Siti, |
| [00:44.66] |
Not just a story Mama told. |
| [00:48.52] |
But a village in Ooh-tah, |
| [00:52.17] |
Where the roofs are thatched with gold. |
| [00:56.42] |
If I could let myself believe, |
| [00:59.62] |
I know just where I’d be |
| [01:03.38] |
Right on the next bus to paradise. |
| [01:07.57] |
Sal Tlay Ka Siti. |
| [01:15.02] |
I can imagine what it must be like, |
| [01:17.73] |
This perfect happy place. |
| [01:21.18] |
I bet the goat meat there is plentiful |
| [01:24.74] |
And they have vitamin injections by the case. |
| [01:28.74] |
The warlords there are friendly. |
| [01:32.25] |
They help you cross the street. |
| [01:35.50] |
And there’s a Red Cross on every corner |
| [01:38.86] |
With all the flour you can eat! |
| [01:43.07] |
Sal Tlay Ka Siti, |
| [01:46.37] |
The most perfect place on earth. |
| [01:49.79] |
Where flies don’t bite your eyeballs |
| [01:53.84] |
And human life has worth. |
| [01:57.45] |
It isn’t a place of fairy tales. |
| [02:00.90] |
It’s as real as it can be. |
| [02:04.60] |
A land where evil doesn’t exist. |
| [02:09.10] |
Sal Tlay Ka Siti. |
| [02:15.16] |
And I’ll bet the people are open minded, |
| [02:18.51] |
And don’t care who you’ve been |
| [02:22.41] |
And all I hope is that when I find it |
| [02:26.02] |
I’m able to fit in. |
| [02:30.27] |
Will I fit in? |
| [02:35.02] |
Sal Tlay Ka Siti, |
| [02:38.43] |
A land of hope and joy. |
| [02:42.18] |
And if I want to get there, |
| [02:45.39] |
I just have to follow that white boy. |
| [02:51.15] |
You were right, Mama, You didn’t lie. |
| [02:54.71] |
This place is real, and I’m gonna fly. |
| [03:06.57] |
I’m on my way. |
| [03:11.22] |
Soon life won’t be so shitty. |
| [03:16.68] |
Now salvation has a name |
| [03:21.83] |
Sal Tlay Ka…Siti. |
