babas tutsipop
“ babas tutsipop is about seeing each other again/ passing through each other/ & laughing// it’s about the neon of nails/ torn socks/ & pizza as a joke// it’s about inventing/ secret passages/ & magic tricks// it’s about the sun’s rays/ deforming/ when we kiss/ & the invisible drunken tiger// it’s about the names of things/ in other languages// it’s about bad translations/ the musty smell/ of burnt houses/ & a lot of dancing// it’s about leaving it all behind/” — Discover more on Spotify.
