Black Sheep feat. Nico Segal

from The Joy by M&O

lyrics

[Chorus]
Bah bah Black Sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
I've got a whole head full
(and you can't touch it)

No You Can't Fucking Touch My Hair

[Verse 1]
I like to keep it curly like Angela and Nikki
But stranger fingers come round, and that's when shit gets tricky

Do I look like a petting zoo to you?
My head is not a book you can peruse

People wanna finger ride a hairline safari
People wanna trick or treat buckets of black kink

Well read my lips when I say this yeah
Read my lips when I say this

No You Can't Fucking Touch My Hair

[Chorus]
Bah bah Black Sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
I've got a whole head full
(and you can't touch it)

No You Can't Fucking Touch My Hair

(hey boy) I'd keep my hands to myself if I were you
(hey boy) I'd keep my hands to myself if I were

[Verse 2]
Usually I don't have to say these things
But some folks need a reminder cause they think
My hair is an open invitation, and I can't understand this odd infatuation

See, since I cut my perm off life ain't been the same
I been taking long showers and long walks in the rain
I rock my pick with a fist on the daily
Cause I ain't Rapunzel I don't need a prince to save me

[Chorus]
Bah bah Black Sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
I've got a whole head full
(and you can't touch it, no you can't touch it, no you can't touch it, no you can't touch it)

No You Can't Fucking Touch My Hair

(Hey boy) I'd keep my hands to myself if I were you
(Hey boy) I'd keep my hands to myself if I were

[Outro]
Wash your hair put the oil on
Go to bed put the scarf on
Braid it up in the winter
Use a comb but be gentle, heyyyy

These are the waves / These are the waves
That the lord has made / That the lord has made
Let us rejoice / Let us rejoice
And be glad in it / And be glad in it

M&O image

M&O Chicago, Illinois

In an era dominated by manufactured noise, M&O fka Milo & Otis have carved out a musical haven for listeners seeking an authentic respite. Jamila Woods (“Milo”—vocals, loop pedal, poetry) and Owen Hill (“Otis” — bass guitar, imagination, production) are the two behind this earthy sound, which harks back to the heyday of R&B with a blend of what can only be labeled “Adventure Soul.” ... more
