Wild Safari In West Africa

Twelve men louder than cowboys engage in a wild safari
on a plain of West Africa where the grass is yellow and dry,
they chase after gazelles slender and swifter than tigers...
run gazelles, don't let hunters capture you in this wilderness!


Africa is your home, and you were raised being totally free 
as others animals are...these mad hunters have no pity for you,
they're after huge profits and don't care if your cubs get hungry;
they will capture you by inducing pain and sell you to a zoo!
