-
Buzz, buzz buzz, the bees go buzz
Quemby the Queen Bee, she got buzzed
The Queen Bee was buzzed,
and you know this happened when she was buzzed
The bees by the lake hid under a fallen log
waiting for me, the breezes swayed
Zip Zap stingers in my skin
I was under attack (and I thought)
Why am I under attack? Why? Why?
I was so sticky sweet, showered in pink lemonade
You spilled it on me, riding on the bus
did you want me, to get bit by stinger bees
or was it to get close to me
Stingers in my closed-toed shoes
and I ran into the shower and I yelled out to you
but Quemby was in her hive
she heard me yelling
she wanted me alive
because she knew that ...
I was so sticky sweet …
(music & lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: charlas
-
tienes ganas de charlar, charlas
pero en esta fiesta, no hay nadie
entonces vamos
pero no, pero no, estoy en mi casa
no puedo, no puedo irme
proximamente en un bosque
veré a toda la gente que toca, que canta, que bate sus palmas
entonces vamos
pero no, pero no, estoy en mi casa
no puedo, no puedo irme
tendré ganas de quedarme...
tendré ganas de quedar...
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: la bête mouffette
-
Je ferme mes yeux pour la trouver (la bête mouffette)
J’enlève mes lunettes de l’an quatre-vingt (la voilà la bête mouffette)
La bête mouffette était jeune et n’avait pas besoin de lunettes
La bête mouffette se considérait si satisfaite
Bête mouffette sans chouettes lunettes
En fait t’inquiètes quand sa tête s’arrête
Je suis la bête mouffette et je jette ma jeunesse
Je souhaite ne perdre ma tête et je dors pendant toute ma trentaine
La bête mouffette n’est plus jeune elle a besoin de lunettes
La vieille coquette, bête mouffette
Bête mouffette sans chouettes lunettes
En fait t’inquiètes quand sa tête s’arrête
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: don't trust the butcher
-
I got my pjs on and I pick up my charango
‘cause I don’t wanna think about you
You’re a mean old man and I’ll keep playing charango
so I don’t think about you
I’m not thinkin’ ‘bout you
I never do, I never do
Don’t trust the butcher, he wants to sell you more meat
than you’ll ever eat
Just be kind and tell him that there’s two of you when really you are eating in eight
And if he doesn’t want to give you that amount you must
go frittata
Frittata for eight, frittata for eight
Don’t trust the butcher, your local macellaio
And don’t trust the butcher, have a frittata on me
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: usain bolt

Lördag klockan två
Vad ska du göra?
Lördag klockan två
Jag ska springa, lycka till
Kör mej till, hastighetsbegränsningen
Flera ögon på mig
Snabbare än ett stort flygplan
Var glad, var stark, kom hit snabbt
Hej, mitt namn är Usain Bolt
Hej, jag sprang 100 och 200 meter
Hej, låt oss dansa till Jimmy Cliff
Hej, ikväll måste vi ses i en timmerstuga
Klockan fyra över två, gå gå gå!
Klockan fem över två
Jag vann, Nytt världsrekord
Det var ofattbart och häftigt
Ja det kan, du hoppa upp och sätta dig på
Snabbast på jorden
Imorgon till Jamaìca
Hej…
Tusen tack, tusen tack, ni är så snygga
Jag älskar er alla
Jag kan inte tala svenska så bra
för att jag är från Jamaica
Hej…
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: tommy
-
Tommy little friend, my bag is out the door
Just ready is the car, we really must go
The sun over us, the road ends
We sing this little song
Tommy little friend, your face is my landscape
So pure, simple, intense, we go as a daydream
The sky up above, inside of me
A feeling of free … and this little song
(music and lyrics by Paola Mirabella) - Track Name: pequenino frango
-
muito prazer em te conhecer
folia raparapidinho nas folhas dos jornais
natureza fomos, falou amo' falou
comercio justo, voces são testemunhos
mandar adeus os safadinhos
concomitantemente, a gente junto em malmö
nosso momento vai chegar
muito prazer em te conhecer
o mundo pelo avesso
meu parachoque tem que rolar
o frango tá doido, sabe bem brincar
alem disso, quem não deseja
que as portas-voz portem paz?
temos vontade de falar, de cantar, de voar devagar
nosso momento vai chegar
quem tá maluco?
pequenino frango, pequenino frango
quem tá maluco?
pequenino frango, quem é?
é o chefe do estado novamente, o chefe do estado
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: b (an homage to the bagel)
-
bagel, borscht, bubbu mayse, bubkes, balabusta, bagel
you're my bagel with cream cheese - Track Name: sexy tour guide / tutto al limone
-
Sexy tour guide, who's your tour guide?
Sexy tour guide, I'm your tour guide
unni semu, unni semu
semu ‘ccà cu vuacci, stamu ‘ppi sunari,
e unni sù l’aceddi?
formality is a frothy lonely dragon, born to obey
questioning origin
hair falls like traces of abstinence, one too many drunk dialings
hair sprouts like traces of abstinence, one too many drunk dialings
(Carfagna)
to meet, met, to make, wet
to meet, met, to mate
ink across my hands, the countryside looks bland
I'm your sexy tour guide, through the Tuscan sunflower fields,
get off get on, get on get off
on the corner of frivolity, balding souls get social
by a row of cypress trees, sprouting souls sow
lo que sea, todos enloquecen
whatever works, whatever words work (°•–+§°)
chorus
Tutto Tutto Tutto al Limone
Talía Tutto Tutto al Limone!!
whatever works, whatever words work (°•–+§°)
chorus
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: maximon / guatemala feliz
-
(Tzutujil lyrics & rap by Rene Dionisio)
Guatemala Feliz con sus Mayas
Enriquece el suelo en Pana
Guatemala Feliz con sus alas
Un chuchito a tres quetzales
(spanish lyrics and music by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: those who never made it back home
- those who never made it back home
- Track Name: dolores inside
-
Dolores native of Oaxaca
Zapotec woman of CIPO-RFM
In Etla prison for doing nothing wrong
La Guelaguetza can't get her out of there
CELL #5, otra Magonista encerrada
su fuerza indigena amenazada
School teacher put in a cage for six long months
her children worried --- will she ever come back?
we don't have sixty-one thousand pesos for bail
but she's not guilty, can't anybody see
CELL #5…
Dolores, I can still hear your voice
Dolores, I know you had no choice
but to protect your kids from
the Mexican government that locked you in
(music and lyrics by Monique Mizrahi) - Track Name: shrinking mind
-
Alone at home my mind is shrinking
Littler and littler and littler and littler and
The chessboard's staring at me, waiting for a sign
Gaze in grace while all is hazy, I think ink
This shrinking mind can't analyze
drawing goofy monsters to animate me
Alone at work my mind is shrinking
Littler and littler and littler and littler and
Fifteen inches glaring at me, none of them alive
That bitch is poking out my eyes to make me blind
chorus
This shrinking mind is overfed
I can sound it out but all meaning has fled
