"Wa yeah!" - Antònia Font

Song: Wa yeah!
Written by: Joan Miquel Oliver
Artist: Antònia Font
Album: Batiscafo Katiuscas (2006)

I sing the the moon and the star
the jungle and the lively forest
the train, the boat, the small plane
and your submarine parked here
I sing the coffee and the biscuit when you say "you could be mine"
how sexy, how sweet, and how cold, oh yeah!
the zebra that goes through a stoplight
and how to dismantle a bidet
cosmetics and Margaret Astor
I already know how to spell "Juliette"!
I sing the rose and the cactus
and many more things, too
a pencil from IKEA, a pistachio, oh yeah!

How amusing,
the things I write when I'm bored,
for example your body,
the faded sweater,
the street white with sun,
my body on top of,
for example, your bed
of semidarkness and sheets
with the thermos broken,
for example, asleep.

I sing the the moon and the star
the jungle and the lively forest
the train, the boat, the small plane
and your submarine parked here
I sing the red fruit
and when I finish I'll laugh
toads, lilypads, princesses, oh yeah!
