Black Mambo - Live At SXSW

This is Black Mambo

"What'll it be now, Mr. Mole?"
Whispers sloth in curls of smoke
"Take a back seat, or play pharaoh
Dance with me and shake your bones"

Slow down, it's a science
He's been waiting to bring you down
Snake eyed with a sly smile
He can hold you and shake you child

Leopards laze each on plush pillows
Slender capes of red and chrome
Paperback dreams in their deep doze
Twitch their toes to black mambo

Slow down, it's a science
He's been waiting to bring you down
Snake eyed with a sly smile
He can hold you and shake you child

"Wanna play cheat, now?" says the sloth
A domino flush to his nose
Tickle that cheek and take your throne
Pump your veins with gushing gold

Slow down, it's a science
He's been waiting to bring you down
Snake eyed with a sly smile
He can hold you and shake you child

We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you

Sadly, everyone, we've only got one more track for you
I'm sorry we've had to cut it so short
But hopefully we'll see you another time this festival
