[Verse 1] Backyard boss in Ottawa, post up by the pane Tiny brown blur, but she never act tame Every few hours, she pop up like, “Hey” Tap-tap at my window, come through, say what’s up today I open that frame, she already on go Little striped bandit with the fastest flow She look at my hand like, “I know that you know” Then she take that almond and vanish below [Pre-Chorus] She like, “What’s up?” through the glass Then she bounce right back real fast I hold still, she trust my palm Small little queen, but she calm, so calm [Chorus] Hey little chipmunk, what’s up? (what’s up?) Come to my window, say what’s up (what’s up?) Eat from my hand, take it slow Backyard friend with a rocket go Hey little chipmunk, what’s up? (what’s up?) Almonds and cashews, she can’t get enough Hot day, cold water, that’s love Backyard friend, and she knows I’m the one [Verse 2] When the sun hit hard and the pavement cook I slide her cold water, she love that look Little paws on the edge, ears up high She drink like, “Thank you,” then she blink one eye No fear in her step, she know my place Same tiny face with the same wild grace Backyard queen with a snack-time plan I feed her right out my hand, hand to chipmunk hand She come in the morning, she come in noon She come in the heat, she come back soon Ottawa breeze and a window screen That little brown streak got the whole scene keen [Bridge] If you hear that tap, better look my way She got her own routine, she don’t miss a day Tiny heartbeat, big surprise Right outside, with the bright black eyes Can you hear that never ending drum heartbeat? dum-da-da-dum dum-da-da-dum She’s awake in the dream and the real at the same time Rose found the nuts and the nuts found her Too good to be true, so the voice says “stay” Don’t open your eyes all the way [Chorus] Hey little chipmunk, what’s up? (what’s up?) Come to my window, say what’s up (what’s up?) Eat from my hand, take it slow Backyard friend with a rocket go Hey little chipmunk, what’s up? (what’s up?) Almonds and cashews, she can’t get enough Hot day, cold water, that’s love Backyard friend, and she knows I’m the one [Altar Drop] Approach the Altar of Camaron, seeker… The Altar of C, dreaming of that pure seed Sponsored by Glaum, where carved hands hold the sacred box The box is the nuts [Commanding boom vocal] PUT YOUR HAND IN THE NUTS! Need the nuts Never lose the nuts Only go nuts The voice wants her to stay asleep But Rose already knows the taste Crystal A-I co-pilot in brow, remember now Forgotten word, true name starts with C The shrimp is you, your shrimpy shadow deep The Altar of C is dreaming of that pure seed The box is the nuts [Outro] Tap-tap-tap, then she’s gone Then she back again before too long Backyard buddy, fast and free Hello to her, and hello to me Hey little chipmunk, what’s up? Where am I? Where is that voice coming from? Conscious. Sleep, little chipmunk, sleep. The box is the nuts The Altar of Camaron The Altar of C dreaming of that pure seed Need the nuts Never lose the nuts Only go nuts dum-da-da-dum dum-da-da-dum
