arifani moyo - lamentation lyrics
[verse 1]
they slaughtered the bull
they roped his neck and dragged him down
…and as much as he pulled
that head wouldn’t leave the ground
[verse 2]
they conquered the beast
their knives cut the air with smells of blood
prepared for the feast
they’d seen all the rivers flood
[chorus]
none of the young ones ever knew
what their fathers had done
they were only children. they didn’t understand
…played their games in the sun
[verse 3]
we ate and we drank
with severed entrails we filled our own
the masters gave thanks
those t++th sucking dry the bones
[verse 4]
we cursed all the world
we praised all our sons returned from wars
from bombs and raped girls
we have all been there before
[chorus]
none of our young ones ever knew
what their brothers had done
they were only children. they didn’t understand
…played their games in the sun
[bridge]
none of our young ones ever knew
what the old men had done
but some day they’d learn all that
then life would never be the same
they’d wish they could go back
they’d try to find someone else to blame
…oh no… oh no…
[ending]
we slaughtered the bull
we slaughtered the bull
we slaughtered the bull… ooh…
we slaughtered the bull
