Babushka-Yai Ya - Fionn Regan

He got one eye sealed over

From the corner of a sovereign ring

He was dancing on the table when the bouncer took his swing

And the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya

He was drinking down that Stolichnaya

Rabbiting like a gun in a tower

It comes in waves in a tsunami

Living a life on the culls of danger

Did you go home with a complete stranger?

Chopping out lies in the back of a manger

Who gave who French

In the back of the car down by the sea

And the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya

He was drinking down that Stolichnaya

Your father sung in the mother tongue

Babushka, Babushka, Babushka-Yai Ya

Looking for our hands like castenetas

Sitting in a circle like Geneva

With the Berlin Wall falling in her head

On the Mexican day of the dead

Say a loyal hound never leaves his master’s grave

Stay with him if he falls underneath this wave

When the jukebox went Babushka-Yai Ya

He was drinking down that Stolichnaya

She sees a cross at the window

On the Mexican day of the dead
