Look at him cryin'
Just like a western child
'Neath the blazin' sun though he would not run
He could not run as we would
His tears the only rain, the earth will know
Wish I could go to hi-im
But what would I say to him then?
Oh Africa
Let's not forget their need for lo-ove
Before we turn our heads, close our eyes
Forget what we despise
Should I offer assistance
Should I say I care for you
Denyin' the others
His sisters and brothers too
Or leave it for someone else
Like it's been left for me
It's just so easy to say-ay-ay
Another time, another day-ay
Oh Africa
Let's not forget their need for lo-ove
Before we turn our heads, close our eyes
Forget what we despise
Look at him cryin'
Just like a western child
Wish I could go to hi-im
But what would I say to him then?
So I'll leave it for someone else
Like it's been left for me-ee
It's just so easy to say-ay-ay
Another time, another day-ay
Oh Africa
Let's not forget their need for lo-ove
Before we turn our heads
Close our eyes
Look away and ignore the lies
Feed ourselves and enjoy our lives
Forget what we despise
