Mecca Normal - The Message lyrics

Mother Africa walking along with Stephen Lewis The dancers are dancing towards the camera Hips moving real fast A young woman in a school uniform Is singing in front of the choir Singing a song perhaps she wrote For this occasion this television opportunity Make no mistake it's directed at you and me She sings, "Why me, why him, why her? Why me, why him, why her?" But the real question underlies the theme We know you have the d** You keep them under lock and key In the west away from us And you choose who lives and dies Why him, why her, why me? Why her, why him, and why do you choose?" Mother Africa takes off her large lens gla**es And wipes her eyes Stephen Lewis doesn't look he's going to cry He takes the message back Back to where it's heard Why me, why him, why her? You choose who lives and dies Why do you choose who lives Who dies? Who dies?
