Samo and Grace Lyrics
Samo and Grace
Where do you live?
Is it under my foot?
Is it over my lips?
Samo and Grace
Well, what can you give?
And where will you wed?
It's not enough to give
'Cause nobody saw you give birth into the night
So Samo and Grace
Would you touch my face?
I gotta know I'm still alive
Just to know I'm still alive
Samo and Grace
Well, how long's it been
Since your baby faced death?
Is it wearing you thin?
Samo and Grace
Got a thick old chin
Got a bucket of soap
Got a reason to sin
'Cause nobody saw you give birth into the night
So Samo and Grace
Will you touch my face?
I gotta know I'm still alive
And nobody saw you destroy your Mr. Right
So Samo and Grace
Can you save me a space?
Well, it'll help me to survive
And the old beaks grow
This is what I'm told
When the rocks break up
And their faces go
And the grass is wet
Like my old steamboat
Well, this is where I've been
In the sleeping tent
All your diamonds shine
What a feel-good time
Gotta add a little lemon to my turpentine
And when the bodies land
You won't understand
I gotta make you a woman
Gotta make me a man
Gotta make me a man
Gotta make, make, make, make
Samo and Grace
Did you check upstairs?
There's a man in your tub
But he says he's not there
Samo and Grace
Where's your old armchair?
I don't know who you are
But I'll see you out there
I guess I'll see you out there
Where do you live?
Is it under my foot?
Is it over my lips?
Well, what can you give?
And where will you wed?
It's not enough to give
So Samo and Grace
Would you touch my face?
I gotta know I'm still alive
Just to know I'm still alive
Well, how long's it been
Since your baby faced death?
Is it wearing you thin?
Got a thick old chin
Got a bucket of soap
Got a reason to sin
So Samo and Grace
Will you touch my face?
I gotta know I'm still alive
And nobody saw you destroy your Mr. Right
So Samo and Grace
Can you save me a space?
Well, it'll help me to survive
This is what I'm told
When the rocks break up
And their faces go
And the grass is wet
Like my old steamboat
Well, this is where I've been
In the sleeping tent
All your diamonds shine
What a feel-good time
Gotta add a little lemon to my turpentine
And when the bodies land
You won't understand
I gotta make you a woman
Gotta make me a man
Gotta make me a man
Gotta make, make, make, make
Did you check upstairs?
There's a man in your tub
But he says he's not there
Where's your old armchair?
I don't know who you are
But I'll see you out there
I guess I'll see you out there

I love this song! It's the song that got me completely addicted to CBB.
i think this song is about a mother and father having a child- "Cause nobody saw you, Give birth into the night," and then they killed the baby- "Samo and Grace, How long’s it been? Since your baby faced death, Is it wearing you thin?"
and then maybe somebody finds out, and they go to jail? idk ive never written on this site before
tell me if im wrong?
i think this may be nonsensical, but i like the way it rhymes. nice song

Milonakis - "Throw the baby out with the bathwater."
I could be completely off but to me this song seems like it's in the point of view of the dead baby that samo and grace had. I think the baby could of been a still birth. She seems to be hovering around the house still as a spirit and I think she's trying to tell them to try and move on from the death of the baby and that she will see you out there could be a referance to heaven. Also I think the man in the tub who says hes not there is some other spirit in the house also.
I think hateme. is onto something. I'm thinking more along the lines of an abortion though with the child. I feel like Samo and Grace are a young couple, perhaps just married "all your diamonds shine, what a feel good time" and they had a baby they weren't ready for because they felt as if they weren't ready "gotta make me a woman, gotta make you a man". But the imagery is dark, and not exactly pitying Samo and Grace, but more against them for their decision with regret and this lack of a soul that could have been....
