Hello Afrika

(album: Hello Afrika - 1991)

Yo! My name is Dr. Alban, the MD microphone doctor.
This song is dedicated to the people of Afrika.
SweMix Gimme some drums!
Yo! Afrikan People! Unite
Come together for the sake of your future!
Yo! Afrikan People! Unite!

Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!

Hello Nigeria! That's my Motherland.
Coming to Sweden now causing hysteria.
Takes a long time to travel the globe, so why be shy?
Why be humble? I just came straight out the jungle.
You can't compete with me cause you know I got the rhythm.
I did it before and I'll do it again, so listen watcha say.
Yeah hear my point of view.
Not everyone can do this.
In fact only a few sophisticated, hardcreated,
that's who I am, and you know
I've been waiting, so start pumping make some noise!

The Mandika tribe, the Hausa tribe,
the Fulani tribe, the Gooya tribe, the Zulu tribe.
Mi no live in a house mi live in a tree.
Electricity can give you a shock.
Mi no smoke no cig mi no take no coke.
All me take is a glass of juice.

Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!

I'm calling on the big guys from the pyramid top,
to join bits and pieces of our Fatherland Afrika.
Cause without boundaries we can move the mountains.
Drop your personal individual ambitions.
Chase the devil off and purify our Fatherland.
Afrikan people, crawl from your vultures, stand affirm.
'Cause you are the aura of mankind.
You are the dreams, you are the hope, you are the future,
you are the past, you are the grandfather of civilization.
That is why ANC wants old dogs to sit.

The impossible just takes a little longer.
Out of this world and inta another world.
The earth is spinning round and there's so much to discover.
The Afrikan man seems to be everywhere.
If there are people in the world
who knows that right is never wrong.
Stop the fire burning in my home Afrika.
Martin Luther King, Mandela you had a dream,
self-evidence and quality for men.
Afrika for me and Afrika far you de Klerk.
It doesn't really matter whether a cat is black or white,
what really matter is to catch the mouse,
I'd rather do it in an Afrikan way,
hello Afrika tell me you you're doin'!

Mmm, jumping on the mike 'cause me a rocking up affection.
When I'm holding me a mike 'cause me awesome affections.
What you say to me. Me a fun and me warm.
Spend some me a time on the "tresittia" dime,
Don't you try to follow me you ought to realize what me are,
what me a realty want. Me not fly.
No I am just cooling come on now just set it off!

Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!

I have been mourning, I have been grieving,
I have been crying, no more tears in my eyes.
There's a hottie, hottie wind blowing south to north
following on my head, drying all my plants,
if there's a mercy in the clouds,
You know right is never wrong?
Move the sadist off my back
and stop the fire burning in my home Afrika.
Here comes the news from mighty Lord.
Transqualation is about to come to Earth.
Right, rapping is digging down river from north to south.
To let milk & honey flow side to side.

My name is Alban, mi is a dentist, mi DJ here, mi DJ there.
Mi have a shop on Slojdgatan, Alphabet St. is da name,
Mi live in no house, mi live in a flat. Electricity can give you a shock.
Mi smoke no cig, mi take no coke, all me takes is a glass of juice.

Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
Hello Afrika Tell me how you're doin'!
