Lyla Songtext

von CocoRosie

You wanted to buy me
For a hundred euro
You said you'd take me
To your little car
Your friend lived nearby
He had a house and all
Where was I from, you said
You guessed Yugoslavia
Well, it's not Yugoslavia
It's not Yugoslavia at all
It reminded me
Of a movie I just saw
About a little girl
From Yugoslavia
She got sent away
They made her prostitute
She ate McDonald's all day
And never had a chance to play

Lyla?

You wanted to buy me
For a hundred euro
You said you'd take me
To your little car
Your friend lived nearby
He had a house and all
Where was I from, you said
You guessed Yugoslavia
But it's not Yugoslavia
It's hardly Yugoslavia at all
