LYRICS:
12. MUERTO ESCONDIDO
lyrics and music: ithaka c.2004
I know a place that's hot most the time
A spliff cost a quarter, a beer cost a dime
I've roameded the globe, Nairob'to Kyoto
But my favorite ghetto is in the depths of Mexico
Paradise is where you make it, but this ain't for the weak
Where men walk on water and zombies walk the streets
The water's blue, sand black, skin brown
Near a little ghost town that never shuts down
Beauty all around for miles
But there's darkness in their smiles
....there's darkness in their smiles
MUERTO ESCONDIDO.... SU ALMA ESTA EM PElIGRO
LA VERDADE SERA REVELADA EM MUERTO ESCONDIDIO
Muerto's got swells that'll kick yo' ass
Sprain yo' ankles or leave 'em casts
There's tropical rain to wash away the pain
But ain't nothing to keep you from going insane
jacking straight up with a chip on her shoulder
one-woman army, million-gallon liquid soldier
Muerto Escondido, not for the weak
Where men walk on water and zombies walk the streets
Ants the size of roaches and roaches the size of mice
Scorpions in your shoes and beds full of lice
INSIDE: frogs and 'squitos in the shower
OUTSIDE: guns, knives and murder
When a house gets robbed, I mean the house itself
They kick your sorry butt out and move it someplace else
It's no man's land, It's no thugs land
It's no one's land...e' LOCOLAND
MUERTO ESCONDIDO.... SU ALMA ESTA EM PELIGRO
LA VERDADE SERA REVELADA EM MUERTO ESCONDIDIO
Suicide and homicide
With dead dogs by the roadside
The river runs with blood the sixth of the month
Coinciding with the local eclipse of the sun
Took shrooms at dawn and thought I saw god
Told me to drink more tequila, stop drinking so much rum
Went to a party at that house up on the hill
With lizards on the walls and ghosts in the halls
Sat down to a plate of fishead stew
Sucking on an eyeball, I'd been trying to chew
Saw ants moving bread across the floor
Through the dining room the kitchen and out the door
They didn't even wait 'til we got to desert
But neither did the skeezer with me trying to flirt
She said, I'm from Italy, but I've lived here ten years
Now I have two husbands and I have six kids
Her mouth was melting as she tried to speak
Said, Caro Ithaka let me give you a treat
She started unzipping, but I was not with it
had a chancre the size of a quarter
on the outside of her lippage
Left the room, left the house
But that ghost in the hall followed me out
He said, you can run, but you cannot hide
From that little dark lie you call your life
Wontcha come back in and stay awhile
drink some blood with Tequila, Escondido style
MUERTO ESCONDIDIO NOT FOR THE WEAK
WHERE MEN WALK ON WATER
AND ZOMBIES WALK THE STREETS
MUERTO ESCONDIDO...SU ALMA ESTA EM PELIGRO
LA VERDADE SERA REVELADA EM MUERTO ESCONDIDIO
MUERTO ESCONDIDIO NOT FOR THE WEAK
WHERE MEN WALK ON WATER
AND ZOMBIES WALK THE STREETS
MUERTO ESCONDIDO...SU ALMA ESTA EM PELIGRO
LA VERDADE SERA REVELADA EM MUERTO ESCONDIDIO
