Zayanes (Berber: Azayi (singular), Izayen (plural)) are a Berber people in the Khenifra region in the central Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco.
Zayanes tribes are known for their attachment to ancestral land and for their tenacity as warriors, especially during the colonization led by Mouha ou Hammou Zayani. Thus they have prevented many invaders from easily seizing Khénifra. Despite the French defeat in the Battle of El Herri, November 13, 1914, the colonizers were determined not to abandon the fight against the Zayanes, but concerned French troops in invading Morocco in coming face to face with the Zayanes.
The tribes of Zayanes live in the Middle Atlas mountain range in the area of Khénifra. The Zayanes belong to a large tribe that twice a year wanders toward Azaghar, where the climate is milder in contrast to Adrar where the winter is very severe.
The Zayanes speak Tazayit, or Central Atlas Tamazight, which is one of the Berber languages.
The Zayanes enjoy goats and ewe's milk and Ahriche, a dish of tripe consisting usually of ganglion, caul, lung or heart of an animal wound with intestines on a stick of oak and cooked on hot coals.
if you wanna be the star
just get the big guitar
a pair of leather jeans
lends credibility make all the critics cream
just get down on your knees
learn how to scream and seize
every "opportunity"

you're one tough rockin' bitch
you got a lot to show
on college radio
so drop all the petals soft as velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate
they're falling
now I know you wanna be the rage
wanna live inside the formaldehyde cage
i know your mind's made up
your breasts tattooed
the power won't rub off
now it's part of you
you got nothing to prove
you got nothing to prove
you've shown to those pricks once more
made them beg for it
you're one bad bitchin' whore
so drop all the petals soft as velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate drop all the petals soft as
velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate
rip up the petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals
rip up the petals
