Boogie Boogie Boogie
I love to dance, I want to dance
But for what? Independence Day?
Independent from what?
From foreign rule? No we aren’t
I still see foreign troops keeping our peace
And foreign jafay keeping us alive
You no body unless you travel abroad
Political independence? Not really
We are still not free politically
Only one group can really be head
They still rob Peter to pay Paul
Economic independence? No way!
It is still smell no taste
Monkey works baboon draws
Everyone for himself, God for us
From kpablee to Nepuenklee,
From Trugbor to Tenebur
Broken faces, dried skins and empty bags
Burst trousers, patched pahpah and gyc
Aren’t really feeling independent
How can they celebrate Independence?
How can they shake it way, way down?
When deep down their deflated bellies
They feel dependent and economically in captivity
