"Oral" lyrics
Björk & ROSALÍA Lyrics
"Oral"
Your mouth floats above my bed at night
My own private moon
Just because the mind can make up whatever it wants
Doesn't mean that it'll never come true
Whatever happened? (Just because she can)
Please, could I change that?
Is that the right thing to do? (Oh, oh)
Oh, I just don't know
I just don't know
Is that the right thing to do? (Oh, oh)
Oh, I just don't know
I just don't know
Let me introduce one to the other
The dream and the real
Get them acquainted
Just because she can
Introduce
Just because she can
A mouth to a mouth
Is that the right thing to do? (Oh, oh)
Oh, I just don't know
I just don't know
Is that the right thing to do? (Oh, oh)
Oh, I j-just don't know
I just don't know
Can I just sneak up from behind?
To the back of his head
And then I lift up his hair
And live forever so lightly
That's where her hair starts
Just because she can
Now please can I kiss him?
Just because she can
Yo quiero besarle
Just because she can
Come on, please? Can I kiss him?
Just because she can
I just don't know, oh
Just because she can (Can)
There's a line there, I can't cross it (Ooh)
Just because she can
There's a line there, I can't cross it (Come)
Just because she can
There's a line there, I can't cross it
Just because she can (Oh, it must come)
There's a line there, I can't cross it
There's a line there, I can't cross it (Just)
Just because she can
There's a line there, I can't cross it
There's a line there, I can't cross it
There's a line there, I can't cross it
There's a line there, I can't cross it
Björk had written "Oral" 20 years prior to its release on the 21st of November, 2023. As she explained to Pitchfork, she wrote it between her "Homogenic" and "Vespertine" albums, but lost the song's original tapes.
"I like the fact that it's happy," said Björk about the song which was produced by both her and
Rosalía. The song was accompanied by the
music video.
With this track, Björk and Rosalía raise money for the legal fight against penfish farming in Iceland. They donate all their rights to income generated by the song to the AEGIS non-profit organisation. "We would like the profit from the song to go to help these people win this court case. It will take two or three years, and when they win it, we can use that as an exemplary case to other fjords and hopefully the world," Björk explained in an interview.
