Donkey Kosh

Little donkey on my shoulder

And a jackal on my back

I carry these, my children

Keep them safe from attack

Donkey makes it hard to dance

The jackal sings too loud

The donkey cries when it's alone

And the jackal is too proud

Little donkey's getting restless, getting heavier as it grows

And the jackal is so spiteful, keeps biting at my nose

Oh, I'd have a lover, a husband and a child

But the donkey is too jealous

And the jackal is too proud

You ask me why I keep them

And why I love them so

Why they get away with murder

As they grow and grow and grow and grow

I keep them 'cos I made them

They come from within my heart

With each mistake I make, create and tear apart

And when it's time to feed them, before they go to bed

I give them my confessions baked within their bread

Little donkey's getting restless, getting heavier as it grows

And the jackal is so spiteful, its body ate my nose
