Come and dine with Africa.

 

Come and dine
Come and dine 
Come and dine
On the table of corruption  !

Drink the wine
Drink the wine
Drink the wine of government  malady

Fill the mouth
Fill the hands
Fill the eyes 
With a pint of the masses sweat!

Come and dine
Come and dine
Come and dine
On our government  stolen nectar!

Feel the pain
Hear the strain
Touch the stain
Of the carcass  of the dead butterfly !

Drink the wine
Drink the wine
Drink the wine
Our leaders have made for us all!

See the dead
View it decayed body 
Touch the hole
Of their brandish bullet in the hand!

Where are they 
Where are they 
Where are they
That wants to dine?

Oh they are dead 
Oh they are dead
Oh they are dead 
In the dark street
Like mortuary 
Built by our leaders for them.

Come and dine
Come and dine
Come and dine
From the table of corruption!
