about

Nanankepichu, meaning "not a home," was Anais Nin's nickname for her houseboat which she kept on the Seine in Paris.

lyrics

Black tar might crumble on your feeble roof
Lights may sway and burn themselves out
Nothing shines brighter than this tiny houseboat
Magical space the keeps me afloat
Stepping of earth and into the water

Nanankepichu my secret Inca garden
Nanankepichu the jewel of the sea

Big wooden beams belie the strength
Of this hiding place palace for our dreams
With curtains draped and alcoves made
We pass through time in subterranean ways
Rocked by the current of distant waves
Byzantie lamp sways above my head

Nanankepichu my secret Inca garden
Nanankepichu the jewel of the sea
Home that is not a home on the banks of the river Seine
Rescuing me again and again
