Had they fed you swine and fed you shame, hey-hey.

As the people you disrespect and disdain,
You have been brainwashed to call each other bushman.

Four hundred and forty years you're telling I:
You said as savages our forefathers died.
But the savagery of your now city streets today,
Makes me wish to be back in the bush, now I say.
You are worried about the state, where you reside,
What about the state of your mind.
You are living in scenic places, with good graces,
While there is chaos among the races.

And to our little one.
They said: if she learns how to eat,
From her downpressors hand,
Her regeneration will be perpetuation.
For she, she will teach our little one.
Man forced to stud and move on along.
Lived so long, without community,
And then the damage of your false, Christianity.

Watching tell-lie-vision.
