I live cement
I hate this street
Give dirt to me
I've got lament
This human form
Where I was born
I now repent
Caribou
Caribou
Caribou
Ooh
Repent
Repent
Give me white
Ground to run
Air for guns
Lets me knife
Knife me, let's
I will get
What I like
Caribou
Caribou
Caribou
Ooh
Repent
Repent
I hate this street
Give dirt to me
I've got lament
This human form
Where I was born
I now repent
Caribou
Caribou
Caribou
Ooh
Repent
Repent
Give me white
Ground to run
Air for guns
Lets me knife
Knife me, let's
I will get
What I like
Caribou
Caribou
Caribou
Ooh
Repent
Repent

I’ve no idea what the song “means” as it were, I know better than to try and ascribe deeper meaning to Pixies lyrics which are often (but not always) meaningless...
I did want to say that this is a SUPER fun song to sing along with... right up there with “I bleed”, “Motorway to Roswell” and of course “Where is my mind?”.
