Lyrics: Devendra Banhart. Michigan State.

My friend has my favorite teeth
They bend backwards when she breathes and it whistles
Sweetness is all sweetness was
Bees are black eyed birds that buzz

My love has my favorite ears
They lean forward when she hears
Well, evil is all evil was
Bees are blue eyed knees that buzz

And I said, ?Oh, Michigan, Michigan state
How I'd love to live in you
I've never been to Michigan state
Still I want to live in you?

Oh, you can't speak without your tongue
Don't try to drown without your lungs
Well, my snail has my favorite slow
Shell helps the snail still the skin lays low

And if my snail has my favorite slow
Then my cold has my favorite snow
But if my snail's cold and comes to a halt
Then my sea has my favorite salt

The salt keeps the sea from feeling sweet
And my toes have my favorite feet
And if I sweat salt
And the Earth sweats heat

Oh Michigan, Michigan state
How I'd loved to live in you
I've never been to Michigan state
Still, I'd love to live in you, Michigan st-st-state
