Lou Monte Babaluci
(spoken) When I was a little boy, my mother used to take me for walks along the beach. And I remember the first time I saw these rocks all covered with these little hard shelled creatures. And I asked her, "Hey mom, what are those things on the rocks over there." and she said to me, "Luigi, they are snails or parywinkles, in the old country they used to be called ? but your grandma had a pet name for them, she used to call them Babaluci. and this song is all about a little snail called Babaluci." (end spoken) I wake up in the morning, look out at the sea Take a walk out on the beach, and set my spirit free I hear the gulls a crying, a flying in the breeze I see my friend the little snail, he smiles and winks at me Babaluci, he's on the rocks making love the whole day long In the worth of summer, all winter long The only time he takes a break is when the tide comes in And when it turns the other way he starts right in again When we first met some months ago, his family number 3 He's been such a busy snail its very plain to see You can hardly see the rock its covered side to side the Babaluci now numbers 95 Babaluci, he's on the rocks making love the whole day long In the worth of summer, all winter long The only time he takes a break is when the tide comes in And when it turns the other way he starts right in again Maybe I should take my girl along the beach with me Have her watch this creature making love beside the sea It lues her imbtitions better luck then free Then I'd be known from her alone as Babaluci
