| Mimi ni mchizi, kama ndizi
|
| Wewe ni mbaya, kama nfiya
|
| Wake up at midnight, under the starlight
|
| Hack out my heart & use it to make the sun rise
|
| Mimi naweza (x3)
|
| Sijui, sijui oh (x3)
|
| You thought that I would stand up and sit this one out
|
| You thought that I would wear it like a blistering shroud
|
| You thought that it would fit but then the fit wore out
|
| And the whalebone was so tight that it made me scream and shout
|
| But did you listen, listen?
|
| Did you listen, listen?
|
| Got on a plane (How did you get here?)
|
| Hack off a leg (How did you get here?)
|
| Left off my finger at the jewelry shop
|
| Hatari hatari danger at the spot, jam hop
|
| Mimi naweza (x3)
|
| Sijui, sijui oh
|
| Naweza
|
| You thought that I would stand up and sit this one out
|
| You thought that I would wear it like a blistering shroud
|
| You thought that it would fit but then the fit wore out
|
| And the whalebone was so tight that it made me scream and shout
|
| But did you listen, listen?
|
| Did you listen, listen?
|
| Did you listen, listen?
|
| Did you listen, listen?
|
| There is a natural sound that wild things make when they’re bound
|
| It rumbles in the ground, gurrah gurrah we all fall down
|
| But when you hear the sound, ten thousand voices lost and found
|
| Your rumble in the ground, gurrah, gurrah we all fall down |
