African Convention Video (MV)

The African Convention is going to take place in the nation
There will be delegations from one and all African stations
(We're sending invitations) To people of African vibrations
(Open up all relations) Come on and hear our syncopation

Every organisation, musicians and politicians
Peasant and high society, the country and the city
Come on and shake off your frustrations
There's going to be some heavy libation
We're gonna dance the blues away
We're gonna stop the pain to this day

Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Mandingo, Hawza, vulani (Beating on the tom-tom)
Beat mix from the Congo (I'll be making sweet harmony)
Well, number one on the agenda is music (Sing your song, you mighty Zulu)
Number two on the agenda is rhythm (Be-be-be-be-be-bebop in Dixieland)
Number three on the agenda is dancing (Shake your body to Hamba Mama)
Well number four on the agenda love (open up all relations)
