Latin Quarter Radio Africa Lyrics

Radio Africa Lyrics

I'm hearing only bad news from Radio Africa,  

  I'rn hearing only sad news from Radio Africa  

  

  They've still got trouble with a monster in the South  

  Heads buried deep in that lion's mouth  

  Like a jaw snapped shut, it keeps them apart  

  If that jaw got broke it would be a start.  

  

  The West still complains about the foreign aid  

  They'd do better to change the terms of trade.  

  More tanks than food in the Ogaden  

  It looks like Moscow got it wrong again.  

  

  Mozambique and Mugabe  

  Still got Frelimo I hear them say  

  But "Exchange" means...  

  Recession" means",  

  It all means "Harder to take".  

  Tanzania should be moving up a gear  

  Instead they've got to step on the brake.  

  

  Can't stop a movement that's come this far  

  But "Lending" means."  

  "Interest" means",  

  "Harder to Fight"  

  Independence has a hidden expense  

  When the hands on the purse strings are white
