Lyrics
Sea lion woman She drink coffee Sea lion woman She drink tea And a rooster crows Sea lion woman She drink coffee She drink tea And a rooster crows Sea lion woman Dressed in red Smile at the man When you wake up in his bed Sea lion woman Dressed in black Wink at the man Then stab him in his back Sea lion woman She drink coffee She drink tea And a rooster crows Sea lion woman Dressed in white Marry the man And you'll spend a long sweet life Sea lion woman Dressed in green Silver lining and golden seams Sea lion woman Dressed in blue Call on the man And hope he knows what he can do Sea lion... Sea lion woman She drink coffee She drink tea And a rooster crows Sea lion woman She drink coffee She drink tea And a rooster crows Sea lion woman Dressed in the blue Call on the man And hope he knows what he can do Sea lion woman Dressed in red Smile at the man When you wake up in his bed Sea lion woman...
About
"Sealion" is a track by Feist, featured on her 2007 album "The Reminder." The song is a contemporary take on Nina Simone's "Sea Lion Woman," and it blends the original's folk roots with indie pop and rock elements. The result is a genre-defying track that honors the past while presenting something entirely new. While Nina Simone's version had a deeper, soulful tone, Feist's rendition is lighter and more playful, demonstrating her ability to reconfigure a traditional song through the lens of her own unique musical sensibilities.
