Here's just some random Devendra Banhart lyrics:

This one is the first I heard by them, [B][SIZE="2"]Long Haired Child[/SIZE][/B]. (I changed the first line from "Maybe (something)...", but a lot of other lines I took their version as it seemed better.

[COLOR="black"][B][SIZE="2"]Mid-winters day; it's cold, and I know for certain
When I go outside and my head started hurtin

It's a winter's day and I know for certain
When I go outside my head starts hurtin

So I wrap it up in materials
Keep my hair from getting cold
I'll wrap it up in materials to
Keep my hair from getting cold

And I said tell my friends when I have kids
Yeah I said tell my friends when I have kids
I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child

When I go outside to mingle in the snow
My head look like a globe
Ain't no hair on it at all
Do I buy a wig? Wluah!
Should I grow my beard,
And comb it upwards
And around my ears?

Well I can't wait for the kids to come
I can't wait for the kids to come

Say hey babe you gonna know no barbershop

'Cause I want- yeah I want- I know for certain
I want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
Baby that's for sure

When the snow it hits my temple
I want to rush home
Put on the kettle now
And warm my little brain
And bald head
I'm too cold to know if I'm alive or dead

But when my baby slips out my mama's womb
When my baby slips out my mama's womb
We're gonna enter a new life
Enter a new life, that's for sure

You're gonna enter your self back through your baby's front door
Now if you want that child to be a long-haired child
You're gonna make that baby be a long-haired child, that's for sure
Baby, baby, that's for sure

Shoobop, shoobop
Shoobop, shoobop [/SIZE][/B][/COLOR]

(Hey Mama Wolf)[/SIZE][/B]
[COLOR="DarkSlateBlue"][B][SIZE="3"]
When I'm in the woods
I know what to call you now
When I'm in the woods
I know what to call you now
Hey Mama Wolf
Hey Mama Wolf

Well maybe the mountains know what
To call you now
Maybe the mountains know what
To call you now
Hey Mama Wolf
Hey Mama Wolf

When I'm in a womb
I know what to call you now
And when a belly blooms
I know what to call you now
Hey Mama Wolf
Hey Mama Wolf

Well I can say Marie
I know what to call you now
Swimming in the sea
I know what to call you now

And when you swim with me
I know what to call you now
And when you're under me
I know what to call you now
Hey Mama Wolf.. [/SIZE][/B][/COLOR]

[B](Queen Bee)[/B]- this one made me cry a lot earlier today, and a few of the others, but maybe that's just because I'm unstable lately- who knows?
[COLOR="Purple"][B][SIZE="2"]
Well I do like a certain girl
She moves like a dancing dream
I saw everything I've seen
And I meant everything I mean
Oh queen bee you're always happy and free
Oh queen bee land by me, by me

She's kissed everyone I've kissed
She's missed everyone I've missed
And her guess is always as good as mine
And I'm blessed, she treats me so damn kind

She's grown every seed I've grown
She's known everything I've known
And my dreams they always coincide
And bows always float in time
And oh queen bee, I'm always happy to see
Oh queen bee, sting me, sting me[/SIZE][/B][/COLOR]

added something:

[SIZE="2"][B][color="navy"]
Lazy butterfly napping on me
Dreaming of the sky and roly polys
Wake up, wake up, clouds are coming, clouds are coming
Wake up, wake up, rains are falling, rains are falling

Colors in my eye are staring at me
Anchor at my side as sweet as silver
Pleasure, pleasure, don't forget her, don't forget her
Love her, love her, I won't forget her, I won't forget her

Seashell fingernail scratching at me
Brown eyed lullaby singing at me
Come on, come on, try and catch me, try and catch me
Come on, come on, try and catch m, try and catch me

Cotton old cloud smoke I know he feels it
Rising from an oak because I feel it
He burn, he burn, mesmerizing, mesmerizing
He burn, he burn, hypnotizing, hypnotizing

Hopeful wise old worm in his temple
Digging in the dirt staying simple
Married, married, to the desert to the desert
Climbing, climbing, up a ladder up a ladder

Purple hummingbird in the meadow
Suckling at the flow of its shadow
See the day fit your fist in, fit your fist in
It's never too late, I'd like to think so, I'd like to think so

Knife stuck in her paw someone help her
Gather sticks and straw and build it shelter
Don't you, don't you, let her die yeah, let her die yeah[/SIZE][/COLOR]
