Babooshka - Kate Bush

She wanted to test her husband.

She knew exactly what to do:

A pseudonym to fool him.

She couldn't have made a worse move.



She sent him scented letters,

And he received them with a strange delight.

Just like his wife

But how she was before the tears,

And how she was before the years flew by,

And how she was when she was beautiful.

She signed the letter



"All yours,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

All yours,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"



She wanted to take it further,

So she arranged a place to go,

To see if he

Would fall for her incognito.

And when he laid eyes on her,

He got the feeling they had met before.

Uncanny how she

Reminds him of his little lady,

Capacity to give him all he needs,

Just like his wife before she freezed on him,

Just like his wife when she was beautiful.

He shouted out, "I'm



All yours,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

All yours,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

All yours,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"

Elle voulait tester son mari.

Elle savait exactement quoi faire:

Un pseudonyme pour le tromper.

Elle n'aurait pas pu faire pire.



Elle lui a envoyé des lettres parfumées,

Et il les a reçus avec un étrange plaisir.

Tout comme sa femme

Mais comment elle était avant les larmes,

Et comment elle était avant que les années passent,

Et comment elle était quand elle était belle.

Elle a signé la lettre



"Tous les vôtres,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

Tous les vôtres,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya! "



Elle voulait aller plus loin,

Elle a donc arrangé un endroit où aller,

Pour voir s'il

Je tomberais pour son incognito.

Et quand il a posé les yeux sur elle,

Il a eu le sentiment qu'ils s'étaient déjà rencontrés.

Incroyable comment elle

Lui rappelle sa petite dame,

Capacité à lui donner tout ce dont il a besoin,

Tout comme sa femme avant qu'elle ne gèle sur lui,

Tout comme sa femme quand elle était belle.

Il a crié: "Je suis



Tous les vôtres,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

Tous les vôtres,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

Tous les vôtres,

Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya! "
