is a sinister, alluring track. The heart of the song is built around the sampled vocal melody which hints at my Turkish heritage & Morricone. It's the gentle innocence, sometimes cheeky, leading you through, juxtaposed against the sinister harshness. Lyrically/melodically it lures you in, then attacks. Telling a tale of sweet deception, the songs title simply an allusion to its namesake, its true nature is revealed only when it’s too late.
My love for Salma Hayek came from watching 'Frida' at the age of 10, and her portrayal allowed me to fall in love with one of my favourite figures in history. Frida Kahlo's artistry, resseliance and attitude inspires me to this day. Salma Hayek's portrayal of Frida immortalised a piece of her forever. For all the talented and bad ass women out there, this ones for you!
LYRICS :
I’m feeling slightly wasted
i feel slightly cautious
with you on my mind
fuck this i see through those eyes
she’s in the upper echelon
and you know she’s not very nice
are you in for the ride?
she’ll convince you to come back
and shell prep you for your darkest hours
and you’ll let her cause she
looks like…
are you ready for the ride?
she’s in the upper echelon
and you know she’s not very nice
when she looks like Salma Hayek
nothing to loose
says she made it mamma
its all smiles for lovers
she’s feeling kinda faint now
cause she ain’t held a gun in a while
and she gets real thirsty for “love”
thats what she tells her angels above
put the saddles on
hoist your body up and then just ride
cause she coming for your mind
(Cause she coming for your mind)
cause she coming for your mind
(Cause she coming for your mind)
she’s in the upper echelon
and you know she’s not very nice
when she looks like Salma Hayek
nothing to loose
says she made it mamma
its all smiles for lovers
she knows her men are cursed
cause she’s the one who learnt from you
and baby your the worst
and somehow I’m immersed in you
when she looks like Salma Hayek
