Lyrics
Hey gather 'round brothers and sisters
This one's called "Oh Savanna"
Comment sava, savanna?
Hey, mon ami McGuire is gonna lay it down
And tell you how it is in this autobiographical song
I say, a-that girl she was so New Orleans
She even had a pet crayfish on her shoulder
That she later ate
I could not believe my two eyes
We were setting the world to rights
We drew up a deal and a clementine peel
And some jobs to do before we die, yea
(What a day, and I feel what?)
It was one year ago to the day (one year ago to the day)
I was a golden haired super saiyan singing machine
But three-six-five and a quarter just slipped away
And then to my surprise
I find myself at my lowest ebb again
Say, savanna, I'm lost, I could use a friend
Oh savanna, I lost my way
I'm hurtling towards my judgement day
Oh savanna, I lost my way
It's Lundi Gras and I'm getting further away
A further away, further away
From the joy of just having that moment, is all there is
And that ain't the way experience goes
And that's just what I said
But I ain't been living well cooped up in my head
I couldn't even enjoy the shred
It's a beautiful world
But I've been locked down in my shed
I got a life to live
But I'm fixing some inconsequential trinket instead
Oh savanna, I lost my way
I'm hurtling towards my judgement day
Oh savanna, I lost my way
It's Lundi Gras and I'm getting further away
Oh savanna, I lost my way
I'm hurtling towards my judgement day
Oh savanna, I lost my way
It's Lundi Gras and I'm getting further away
Further away, further away
Further and further away
I forgot about something
(What did you forget about?)
Something real strong (something real strong)
If singing and dancing is still alive, alright
I think I understand-a
Gonna get back to the plan-a
I think yes well maybe maybe I can-a
I'm taking it back, savanna
I'm taking it back
I'm taking it back, savanna
I'm taking it ba-a-a-a-ack
Savanna, I'm taking it back
I sure done lost my way
But I'm getting on track, savanna
I'm taking it back
I'm taking it back, savanna
I'm taking it ba-a-a-a-ack
Savanna, I'm taking it back
I sure done lost my way
But I'm getting on track, savanna
I'm taking it back
I'm taking it back, savanna
I'm taking it ba-a-a-a-ack
Savanna, I'm taking it back
I sure done lost my way
But I'm getting on track
(I'm taking it back, I'm taking it back)
I'm taking it back (I'm taking it back)
I'm taking it back
Savanna, savanna
I sure done lost my way
I'm taking it back
No, no
