[lyrics originally transcribed by Jimmy Dyna, onesecbeforetheend & etze]
Yo, Strange Universe in Africa
The amba**ador, the anthrax in Addis Ababa
Greeted by flashing cameras
Politician and talking drums
Dirty cops walking with guns -wow!-
It's all good, the convoy is waiting
The Sheraton hotel, the swell [?] destination
Keep the feet up
The vanguard loose [?] to reel up in the city for real
Fools better be getting keys cut
Poolside in the sweltering heat
Got the king-size canopy, sheltering the jeep
Dr. Z, I see you're busy with the parkour
Catch you later on, I have some business in Port Harcourt
Live in a three piece by the river
Balling like Obama on tour with Ginger Baker
[about to send you to your maker]
Bout to vacate the plane when it landed
I went to a village to make it rain
Sat inside the Benz with the diplomat plates
Sipping Dom P, eating crab cakes
Why the sad face, we're going international
Haters wanna diss, but the flows are incompatible
Now the coulda, shoulda, woulda
E.T's gotten broke spending money in the [???] -for real-
Stay up without the balancing beam [?]
Like Akeem Joffer: "The royal phallus is clean"
I'm going back to the motherland..
Yo, living maximum's the axiom
For Atlantean pan-African adamantium
Don't be mad at him for brandishing his talons
To drip the Sazerac [?] and leave the Heineken [?] in the balance
Quinjet flight to Mombasa
Eating at the Blue Nile Ethiopian restaurant
-about to order me some good food-
Trying to find Wakanda, trying to find the Black Panther, king T'Challa!
Devil politician k**s the rebel opposition
The rebel opposition k**s the devil politician
Both diabolically corrupted
They want the devil's seed to be the n***a not to f** with
Irrelevant, riding upon an elephant
Then in a helicopter over the Cape Peninsula
Police commisioner downtown in Tangier
Catching a camel ride on the beach with Pam Grier -yeah!-
Making moves the African and the Arab rule
All across the continent, cuff talling the scarab
Zanzibar luxurious private islands
All up in the crosshairs of furious nine-to-fivers
Spend the Sterling by the thousand
ET's going hiking in the Drakensberg mountains
A beautiful place despite all the challenges
Pretty good for uncivilized savages
