about

Bang Bang is the first single from the Swedish-Indian musician Ishaaq's sophomore album Andra, the world's first(!) plant-based vinyl album. Ishaaq is based in Stockholm and has a distinctive style, mixing his geographical roots into music, and on Bang Bang, Indian elements such as tabla, flute and strings set the tone. The lyric also has an unusual perspective, as it is narrated by two female rhinos, the last two of their specie.

lyrics

BANG BANG

Vi kommer från en annan era
Vi kommer från en annan tid
Miljoner års erfarenheter
Som kunde ta sig ända hit

Här gick gränsen,
Precis här gick gränsen
Här gick gränsen,
Precis här gick gränsen

Bang bang pigga pigga
Bang bang pigga pigga

Vi är dom sista exemplaren
Vi är Fatu och Najin
mor och dotter utan partner
utan chans att bli gravid

Det blev för trångt på savannen
å alla bang bang pigga
Alla bang bang pigga pigga pigga

Fanns inte rum för kvalitetstid
ingen ro för hederligt samliv
alltid lätt paranoid f
örbannade jägare och (krig)

Bang bang pigga pigga
Bang bang
Bang bang pigga pigga

vi brukar rulla oss i dyn
det ser gulligt ut på bild
med horn av keratin
dyrt som guld och koka(in)

Bang bang pigga pigga
Bang bang
Bang bang pigga pigga

vi kommer inte skynda oss
Här gick gränsen,
vi kommer inte skynda oss
Precis här gick gränsen
Här gick gränsen
vi kommer inte skynda oss, ska bara ni
vi kommer inte skynda oss ska bara

Bang bang pigga pigga
Bang bang
Bang bang pigga pigga
