We thought
that he was a bright and tough guy
So we voted
him in to the kitchen of national pie
Then he
turned greedy and parasitic like a louse fly
He hastily ate
everything leaving plates bone dry
On the new
parliament sofa seat with a loose tie
Mouth opened,
cloud of sleep in his heavy eyes
It is like
the speaker is singing a lullaby
His tempting
promises he failed to gratify
His failures
he confidently tried to justify
In the
streets we started singing our battle cry
“Haki yetu,
haki yetu, tunataka haki yetu”
When we
stood up to him and asked why
He did not
get done all that he promised to do
Covering his
lies with more lies he testified
Our determined
thoughts he then petrified
That our united
minds could not even identify
What to
believe or what to nullify
