Lyrics:

I'll never have to fake a smile anymore
With that man complaining while I scrub the floor
And I can't help it, now I'm done with this
I got my pride and I did my time

I'm done with tyrannical men
And the way they talk to me
But I just wonder if they understand
How mean they were to me
Oh ain't that funny
How this ever tends to be?
But I just wonder if you'll understand
What it means to me

I heard on a radio song
What an old Friend said to me
And I just wonder if you'll understand
What it means to me
Oh ain't that funny
All these words are made for me
And I just wonder if you'll understand
That was meant to be

I've Never ride on this side of the shore
Where you play around and go with the flow
I can't hear nothing but joy and tweets
I'm on a cloud and I dream out loud

I heard on a radio song
What an old Friend said to me
And I just wonder if you'll understand
What it means to me
Oh ain't that funny
All these words are made for me
Andi I just wonder if you'll understand
That was meant to be

I'm done with tyrannical men
And the way they talk to me
But I just wonder if they understand
How mean they were to me
Oh ain't that funny
How this ever tends to be?
But I just wonder if you'll understand
What it means to me

I heard on a radio song
What an old Friend said to me
And I just wonder if you'll understand
What it means to me
Oh ain't that funny
All these words are made for me
And I just wonder if you'll understand
That was meant to be

For those of you music nerds...
"My Hi-De-Ho Man" is the interpolated sample in the vocal chorus.
This is also directly sampled in "Jimmy's Gang" by Parov Stelar (subtle) and "The Big Swing" by Fab Samperi (obvious).
But CP is genius in how they use the melody with different lyrics and make it completely their own.

[tiggatar]

This one is my favourite! It´s just the perfect amount of funky and chill!

[realShadowKat]

Great arrangement... feels like some flashbacks to Moonshine here.

[nugget]

There are some pieces that are just... epic from the very beginning !
Caravan Palace will stay for a long time, because of the quality of the music they make. We are witnessing history, lads.

[Sezario]

Le premier sample qui est directement sorti de Strip-Tease avec le chef français à New York, c'est du grand génie ! Merci pour cet album de qualité les chefs

[katiaplantscientist]

I can personally relate to this song, I cut a tyrannical man who was mean to me out of my life and I've never been happier.

[asyuh]
