Simple Minds - Sun City lyrics

South africa away to south africa Got to say i ain't gonna play sun city Chorus: I ain't gonna play sun city I ain't gonna play sun city (everybody say) I ain't gonna play sun city (no baby) I ain't gonna play sun city Relocation to phoney homelands Separation of families i can't understand Twenty three million can't vote 'cause they're black We're stabbing our brothers and sisters in the back i'm gonna say Out government tell us "we're doing all we can" Constructive engagement is ronald reagan's plan Meanwhile people are dying and giving up hope This quiet diplomacy ain't nothing but a joke Chorus: It's time to accept resposibility Freedom is a priviledge nobody rides for free Look around the world baby it cannot be denied Why we're always on the wrong side Chorus: Boputhuswana is far away But we know it's in south africa no matter what they say You can't buy me i don't care what you pay Don't ask me sun city 'cause i ain't gonna play Chorus: Relocation to phoney homelands Separation of families i can't understand Twenty three million can't vote 'cause they're black We're stabbing our brothers and sisters in the back i'm gonna say Chorus: Written by little steven (c) 1985 blue midnight music/warner bros music ltd reproduced without permission
