BORROW BORROW
Mebo mebo
Borrow borrow nation of the world
They cant stop
The wont stop
The whole nation is plunged in debt
The nation never stops borrowing
The world keeps lending
The agony is never ending
Billions today
Trillions tomorrow
But we still need more
Pouring money into meaningless pursuits
If a nation plunges her people into debts
One expects developments
But none in sight
Please what animal is accused again?
Okay lets go for another two billion dollars
This time we use it for farming
Along the way
An antelope will come and eat the money
An antelope building a multi-billionaira mansion in his village
Or one adding to his fleet of cars
At the end when appropriation is done
Only one percent development is recorded
Shall we go for another loan?
This time for education
Pay educators well
Or continue the same tradition?
Meeeh! Educators are good
Because tomorrow
A snake will do the swallow
And we continue promising everybody a better life.
Shall we go for another loan?
