Biafra


Black were the people in the country of Biafra
On the continent of Africa, where the sun beat down like fire
The people and their babies had teeth and mouths and bellys
Like all people on the planet it was food that fueled their bellys

They worked and farmed and traded so that not a mouth went empty
For everyone was plenty when the wealth has shared out fairly
They were diligent and peaceful, quite content resourceful
Like all the people on the planet they had a fate most foul and dreadful

??? And black is the petrol were they flown around in engine ???
Transported very quickly to another destination
It's important, it's vital, it's the drug and we're the addicts
More and more and more must come to satisfy the habits

Now people of the kingdom that have lakes of oil beneath them
If you look on maps of Africa you will find Biafra on them
People of the kingdom that have lakes of oil beneath them
'F you look on maps of Africa you will find Biafra on them
People of the kingdom that have lakes of oil beneath them
Look on maps of Africa you will find Biafra on them

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Zounds are an English anarchist band formed in 1977 from loose jamming sessions around the Reading area. Originally they were part of the cassette culture movement, releasing material on the F**k Off Records label, and were also involved in the squatting and free festival scene. The name of the band is derived from the old English minced oath coined by William Shakespeare: "zounds", which is a contraction of "God's wounds", referring to the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ, formerly used as a mildly blasphemous oath.
