|
Until the philosophy which hold one race superior |
|
And another |
|
Inferior |
|
Is finally |
|
And permanently |
|
Discredited |
|
And abandoned - |
|
Everywhere is war - |
|
Me say war. |
|
That until there no longer |
|
First class and second class citizens of any nation |
|
Until the colour of a man's skin |
|
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes - |
|
Me say war. |
|
That until the basic human rights |
|
Are equally guaranteed to all, |
|
Without regard to race - |
|
Dis a war. |
|
That until that day |
|
The dream of lasting peace, |
|
World citizenship |
|
Rule of international morality |
|
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, |
|
But never attained - |
|
Now everywhere is war - war. |
|
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes |
|
That hold our brothers in angola, |
|
In mozambique, |
|
South africa |
|
Sub-human bondage |
|
Have been toppled, |
|
Utterly destroyed - |
|
Well, everywhere is war - |
|
Me say war. |
|
War in the east, |
|
War in the west, |
|
War up north, |
|
War down south - |
|
War - war - |
|
Rumours of war. |
|
And until that day, |
|
The african continent |
|
Will not know peace, |
|
We africans will fight - we find it necessary - |
|
And we know we shall win |
|
As we are confident |
|
In the victory |
|
Of good over evil - |
|
Good over evil, yeah! |
|
Good over evil - |
|
Good over evil, yeah! |
|
Good over evil - |
|
Good over evil, yeah! /fadeout/ |
