The inspiration for “Ethiopia” originated from a life-changing “musical field trip” that bassist Flea and guitarist Josh Klinghoffer took to the African country.
As Flea told The Sun, many of the emotions he experienced while lost in the country are reflected in the album:
I got lost in a city cal...
[Verse 1]
E I O I E I A
When you give your love away
You get a feeling for
E I O I E I A
Live to love another day
Even when you feel unsure
[Verse 2]
More and more I want to raise
Raise my bar and raise your stay
E I O I E I A
When I lie there wide awake
For my son I'll make
[Chorus]
Tell my boy I love him so
Tell him so he knows
Lost in Ethiopia
Walk out in that road
[Verse 3]
E I O I E I A
Something good going to come your way
Just look out your door
E I O I E I A
Tell 'em what you wanna say
No matter what you might incur
[Chorus]
Tell my boy I love him so
Tell him so he knows
Lost in Ethiopia
Walk out in that road
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
E I O I E I A
Steal my heart to give away
Make me want to say
E I O I E I A
You and I are sewn the same
More and more and more each day
[Chorus]
Tell my boy I love him so
Tell him so he knows
Lost in Ethiopia
Walk out in that road
