Gorilla beating that banana
Beautiful scenes everywhere you look
As pretty as in any travel book.
No one here wants for anything
And you hear the kids playing.
Nobody would complain about
Alittle work before lights out.
Really, there is nothing to the rumors'
Everyone loves our foreign consumers.
Please buy our oil, exotic fruit or stones
Umm don’t worry about the camera drones.
Brothers only watching for our safety
Looking after his people is stately.
Ignore the monkeys fighting soon they will stop
Cause the guerrillas are deciding who’s next on top
