Lyrics
WE KNEW not the eating of bread and
We knew not the wearing of garments;
Eating plants with our mouths like sheep.
The wise MAMI from the house of SHIMTI
Sent the ADAM to the watering hole;
A pleasure girl to entice ENKI DU,
Share her ripeness is you want to KNOW.
Shake the booty, shake the booty, bump.
Sent down from the Land of URUK; She bared her bosom, a woman's task.
But, when they start to boogie, watch the savage become a man.
Six days and seven nights filled with her charms;
Until his wild beasts fled away in alarm.
Now he had vision, a broader understanding.
The harlot said, The food of elect, now you are KNOWING.
