|
You have to wash with the crocodile in the river |
|
You have to swim with the sharks in the sea |
|
You have to live with the crooked politician |
|
Trush those things that you can never see |
|
Ayeye ayeye jesse mfana (jesse boy) ayeye ayeye |
|
Chorus: |
|
It's a cruel crazy beautiful world |
|
Every time you wake up i hope it's under a blue sky |
|
It's a cruel crazy beautiful world |
|
One day when you wake up i will have to say goodbye |
|
Goodbye -- it's your world so live in it! |
|
Beyond the door, strange cruel beautiful years lie waiting for you |
|
It kills me to know you won't escape loneliness, |
|
Maybe you lose hope too |
|
Ayeye ayeye jesse mfana ayeye ayeye |
|
Chorus |
|
When i feel your small body close to mine |
|
I feel weak and strong at the same time |
|
So few years to give you wings to fly |
|
Show you the stars to guide your ship by |
|
Chorus |
|
It's your world so live in it |
