Call Me Up Lyrics by Shekel - שקל

Radio Junam - רדיו ג’ונאם

2016

[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I feel almost
Never shared posters on our walls, not even close
Hoping someday home will find me and I won’t be ever lost
[Verse 1]
He’s got these hands, he’s black and I’m beige
And I like the way we turn together ancient gray
Absorbing the city drills hoping to find the groove within
I’ve got roots in the snowy north
Only potato and coleslaw or both
But I feel my ass, my heart in the jungle
In the hood, in the ghetto
In the 7/11 down one 168th street
Flushing, Queens, New York
Big leaves will be my clothes
He’ll put his arms around me and I’ll brag that he’s my swag
Denying how rookie I lookie
I think I finally found my place
I think I finally found my place?
[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I feel almost
Never shared posters on our walls, not even close
Hoping someday home will find me and I won’t be ever lost
[Verse 2]
These teachers try to tame me, to name me
Lazy and angry, these bosses make me feel shitty
I don't smile enough
And I wonder, do boys get these kinda remarks?
Girl are always expected to be suggestive
And If I don’t smile to an older cigar smoker
Sketchy broker that needs my dress to brush his permeative ego
No thanks, I’ll go before you’ll need to fire
My need to please the man has expired
Maybe I’m not smart in which battles I choose to fight
But I’d rather be a refreshing surprise, than a dish on the side
On the usual easy to swallow, no trouble to follow
Pretty but shallow, Kind of toothless shark
[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I feel almost
Never shared posters on our walls, not even close
Hoping someday home will find me and I won’t be ever lost
[Verse 3]
Late night surprise, early morning rise
When he closes the door I never know when’s the next show
He makes me glow, but I don’t even tell my mo’
I didn’t plan to meet this man, I didn’t think I’ll turn to pink
Each time he makes his smooth, Persian dark and silky move
I feel how all my rational cells go to hell the minute I ring the bell
Walking up six floors while peeling off slowly my shell
We think we can buy new beginnings like cheese
Old habits have a way to push and squeeze
Bulling all my…
Chill out you live for the tease!
What have we got if not to just
Ease in, and enjoy whatever comes along
[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I feel almost
Never shared posters on our walls, not even close
Hoping someday home will find me and I won’t be ever lost
