Lyrics
Hearing only bad news
From radio Africa
I'm hearing only bad 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
I'm hearing only bad news
From radio Africa
I'm hearing only sad news
From radio Africa
The West still complains
About the foreign aid
They'd do better to change
Ihe terms of trade
It's more tanks than food
In the Ogaden
It looks like Moscow
Got it wrong again
I'm hearing only bad news
From radio Africa
I'm hearing only sad news
From radio Africa
I'm hearing only bad news
From radio Africa
I'm hearing only sad news
Mozambique and Mugabe
Still got Frelimo I hear them say
But exchange means (exchange means)
Recession 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
(I'm hearing only bad news)
So many movements have come this far
(I'm hearing only bad news)
But lending means, interest means it's harder to fight
(I'm hearing only bad news)
Independence has a hidden expense
(I'm hearing only bad news)
When the hands on the purse strings are white
Hearing only bad news
(From radio Africa)
Hearing only bad news
(From radio Africa)
Hearing only the bad news
(From radio Africa)
Hearing only the bad news
(From radio Africa)
Hearing only the bad news
(From radio Africa)
