Oysters Songtext
von Meshell Ndegeocello

Somebody′s wishing on a shooting star
Shooting star streaming cross the sky
You know it's just a meteorite

People throwing pennies in a wishing well
Wishing well is gonna run dry
But I ain′t gonna leave you tonight


Everybody talking about changing the world
World ain't ever gonna change
But you can always change in front of me

I'll shuck all the oysters and you can keep the pearl
I do my shucking and my jiving for free
Free like walking down the beach at night

Put a bunch of lines out to the one you want
Till you get it right
Sometimes you don′t get it right
Sometimes you won′t get it right
But when you do it's out of sight
Sometimes you do get it right
