Ten Years

The people of this country don't want to get along
The people of this country don't want peace
We've been fighting for ten years now
We've been fighting for ten years now
Oh, ten years we've been killing each other in this place
Oh, ten years we've been killing each other in this place
What is the cause?

It's over Phuzekhemisi
Oh, he really hit you hard my friend Majaza
Down there in Durban I heard down there
The river I drink from I drink Makhoya-Kade
I kept telling them that they will catch the Mamba
Phew!
Get up there my friend Ngwazi up there on the buses
Shut up and close up there, pitch the tents you'll hear from me
Hop hop!

The people of this country don't want to get along
The people of this country don't want peace
Until when will we be killing each other
Until when will we be killing each other
It will end, ten years we've been killing each other (ten years we've been fighting)
It will end, ten years we've been killing each other (ten years we've been fighting)

You see in this place of ours we are ruled by thugs
People sleep during the day and roam around at night with guns
Boo! Mafumadi is quiet, he doesn't say anything, hhobh!

The people of this country don't want to get along

The arm of the law must really work, man
I see thugs in this place of ours, thugs are increasing
Thugs walk around, poking their noses into people's houses
Boo!
This country of ours that can no longer lose Nkonyane, men, the country
This country of ours is ruled by thugs?
Hey you thugs go back where you came from
Boo!
