paroles de chanson Intro to the Bottle (Live 1983) - Gil Scott-Heron

We'd like to take you into rhythm
That is about the rhythm of rebirth and regeneration
The rhythm is called guan guan guanco
Named after the snake
Because you-you-you see the Africans believe
That snakes had magic powers
That every year, the snake would shed its skin
And appeared to be reborn
And so, the word for snake became synonymous
With the rhythm for rebirth and regeneration
I say guan guan guanco
Sehey, sehey, sehey, say, say way um
Got me, got me, got me, got me, won't let go
Sehey guan guanco
Got me, got me said won't let go, got me
Guan guanco, got me, got me, got me, got me
Got me, got me, got me say well
Got me, won't let go
So, we would like to take you to an idea
About the end of everything being in the beginning
Of something else
And each new day, bringing new opportunities
Rebirth and regeneration
Song is about guan guan guanco
The spirit of rebirth
And it's called The Bottle
