Lyrics

Many African children, Living in a concrete situation African children Living in a concrete situation African children I wonder do they know where you're coming from African children Down there yes in a concrete situation African children I wonder do they know where you're coming from The whole of the nation Living in these tenements, Crying and applying to their council For assistance every day Now that their tribulation so sad Now that their environment so bad High rise concrete No back yard for their children to play African children I wonder do they know where you're coming from, African children In a concrete situation African children Wonder do they know where you're coming from All of the nation are living in these tenements Precast stonewall concrete cubicals Their rent increases each and every other day Structural repairs are assessed yet not done Lift out of action on the twenty-seventh floor And when they work they smell African children Living in a concrete situation African children I wonder do they know where you're coming from African children Living in a concrete situation African children I wonder do they know where you're coming from African children Down there down there in a concrete situation African children Wonder do they know where you're coming from Where you're coming from African children REPEAT Sometimes wanting to party late into the night And when they're out of sight The neighbours' complaining again And its a place where You don't even know your neighbour's name It's a ghetto in the sky
