Artist/Band: Devendra Banhart
Lyrics for Song: Pumokin Seeds
Lyrics for Album: Oh Me Oh My... [2002]



Oh

There's a lot of love

But not the kind I need

Have you ever made soup-out-of pumpkin seeds

There's a lot of skin and flesh i never should have seen

There's too many half-ways-in-betweens



There's a lot of stays

I think i wish i'd done

There's a lot of leaves my true love gave to me



There's a lot of stays

I think i wish i'd done

There's a lot of leaves my true love gave to me



There's a lot of birds

That people like to draw

There's a lot of sees

I wish i never saw.



There's a lot of birds

That people like to draw

There's a lot of sees

I wish i never saw.


About Pumokin Seeds

Devendra Banhart's "Pumokin Seeds" stands as a quintessential example of his early indie-folk and experimental pop style, released on the 2002 album *Oh Me Oh My...*. The track showcases Banhart's signature vocal delivery, characterized by its conversational tone and melodic unpredictability, which became a defining trait of his discography. Recorded during a pivotal era for the lo-fi and bedroom pop movements, the song reflects the raw, unpolished aesthetic that Banhart championed, blending acoustic instrumentation with eccentric lyrical themes. It captures the spirit of his work from the mid-2000s, where he frequently explored surreal imagery and personal introspection without adhering to conventional song structures. The recording remains a notable song in his catalog, illustrating his ability to create memorable, atmospheric tracks that resonate with fans of alternative folk and indie music.
