Ibokwe (Goat)

Uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni na
Yewen' uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni
Uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni na
Ndamlungisa ngaphandle kwebokwe
Lona ndamlungisa tyini ngaphandle kwebokwe
Yabona uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni na
Ngoku uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni
Uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni na
Yewen'uzawndazi uk'ba ndibhinqe ngantoni na
Eyintakulungiswa ngaphandle kwebokwe
Yabona lona yena ndizamlungisa ngaphandle kwebokwe
Coz I'm an African flying machine
Ungandibona xa ndithi do my thing
Sukhathazeka intweyincane lezi
Asifuni kuthi ide ilale ibokwe aph' ekhaya
Zintweyincane lezo asifuni kuthi bude buphekwe utywala aph' ekhaya
Zintweyincane lezo

Description
It is common in African cultures that when we encounter difficulties
or problems in our lives that we appease to our ancestors by
slaughtering a goat,brewing traditional beer and burning incense.
In this song Thandiswa Mazwai is saying that she'll fix this
situation she has found herself in without slaughtering a goat or
brewing traditional beer because it's a minor
problem that doesn't need to involve the ancestors.

Ibokwe (Goat)

What do I know about the UK?
What do I know about the UK?
What do I know about the UK?
I prepared him out of Bokwe
I made it out of the box
What do I know about the UK?
What do I know about the UK?
What do I know about the UK?
What do I know about the UK?
Which is an adaptation without Bokwe
I'm trying to fix it out of the box
Coz I'm an African flying machine
You can see me when I say do my thing
We're worried a little bit of these
We don't want to sleep at home
A little bit of that we don't want to even cook alcohol at home
There are a few of those
Oh little ones
Which is an adaptation without Bokwe
See what I'm going to fix
Without alcohol
I'm going to fix the situation outside of Bokwe
I prepared him without alcohol
That's what you're sorry for (...)
That's what you're tough, (because they've long been crying babies)
I'm not afraid of you
Mmm ye ye ye ye ye ye oh What am I wearing
What do I wear
Mmm ye ye ye ye oh What am I wearing
What do I wear
Oh without Bokwe
It lives outside Bokwe
Outside Bokwe
It lives outside Bokwe
Oh yeah what do I wear
Woh woh woh Woh what do I wear
What do I wear
What's the belt
Woh ndibhinqe ngantoni bhinqe ngantoni na
Ngaphandle kwebokwe
Yeh mmm yeh mmm
Woh woh mmm
Yeh mmm ×2
Woh woh mmm
Yeh mmm× 2
Woh woh mmm
Yeh mmm ×2
Woh woh mmm
Yoh yoh yoh yoh yoh yoh
