In this part of Africa, we all have a saying
Whenever something bad happens
We just throw our hands to the sky and say "Hasa Diga Eebowai!"
Hasa Diga Eebowai?
It's the only way to get through all these troubled times
There's war, poverty, famine
But having a saying makes it all seem better!
There isn't enough food to eat
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
People are starving in the street
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Well, that's pretty neat!
Does it mean no worries for the rest of our days?
Kind of!
We've had no rain in several days (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
And eighty percent of us have AIDS (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
Many young girls here get circumcised
Their clits get cut right off (Way oh!)
And so we say up to the sky
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Now you try!
Just stand up tall, tilt your head to the sky
And list off the bad things in your life
Somebody took our luggage away (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
The plane was crowded and the bus was late (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
When the world is getting you down
There's nobody else to blame (Way oh!)
Raise your middle finger to the sky
And curse his rotten name
Wait, what?
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Am I saying that right? (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
Excuse me, sir
But what exactly does that phrase mean?
Well, let's see "Eebowai" means "God"
And 'Hasa Diga' means "F*ck you"
So I guess in English it would be
"F*ck you, God!"
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
What?!
When God f*cks you in the butt (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
F*ck God right back in His cunt (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
Hasa Diga Eebowai! (F*ck you, God!)
Hasa Diga Eebowai! (F*ck you, God!)
Excuse me, sir, but you should really not be saying that
Things aren't always as bad as they seem
Oh, really? Well, take this f*cking asshole, Mutumbo, here
He got caught last week trying to rape a baby
What!? Why?
Some people in his tribe believe that having sex with a virgin will cure their AIDS
There aren't many virgins left, so some of them are turning to babies
But that's horrible!
I know!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Here's the butcher, he has AIDS
Here's the teacher, she has AIDS
Here's the doctor, he has AIDS
Here's my daughter she has a
Wonderful disposition
She's all I have left in the world
And if either of you lays a hand on her
I will give you my AIDS!
If you don't like what we say
Try living here a couple days
Watch all your friends and family die
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
F*ck you!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a
F*ck you in the eye!
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a
F*ck you, God, in the ass, mouth, and cunt-a (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
F*ck you in the other eye!
F*ck you, f*ck you, God (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
F*ck you, f*ck you, God (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
F*ck you, f*ck you, God (Hasa Diga Eebowai!)
Hasa Diga!
F*ck you, God!
In the cunt!
