Originally released on The Red Shoes in 1993, “Song of Solomon” is the second track from Kate’s first 2011 album Director’s Cut.
Much like the rest of the album, the track features many of the original performances but has had new “scenes” and textures added. However, it is the only one to feature...
[Verse 1]
Song of Sol
The Song of Solomon
Solomon
The song of everyone
Everyone
Who walks the path
Walks the path
Of the solitary heart
Of the heart
The soul cries out
Soul cries out, soul cries out
And here's a woman singing
[Chorus]
Don't want your bullshit, yeah
Just want your sexuality
Don't want excuses, yeah
Write me your poetry in motion
Write it just for me, yeah
And sign it with a kiss
[Verse 2]
Just take
Mmm, just take any line
Any line
"Comfort me with apples
Comfort me
For I am sick of love
Sick of love
His left hand is under my head
His left hand
And his right hand
His right hand
Doth embrace me"
Song of Sol
This is the Song of Solomon
Solomon
[Chorus]
Don't want your bullshit, yeah
Just want your sexuality
Don't want your excuses, yeah
Write me your poetry in motion
Write it just for me, yeah
And sign it with a kiss
[Bridge]
I'll be the Rose of Sharon for you
I'll be the Lily of the Valley for you
I'll be Isolde or Marion for you
Oh, I'll come in a hurricane for you
I'll do it for you
Wop bam boom
Wop bam boom
[Outro]
Don't want your bullshit, yeah
Just want your sexuality
Wop bam boom
Write it just for me
And sign it with a kiss
