David Bowie - African Night Flight [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
African nightmare one-time Mormon
More men fall in Hullabaloo men
I slide to the nearest bar
Undermine chairman
I went too far
Bent on a windfall
Rent a sony
Wonder
How the dollar went down
Got to get a word to Elizabeth's father
Hey no, he wished me well
Seemed like another day
I could fly
Into the eye of god on high
His burning eye will see me through
One of these days, one of these days
Got to get a word through one of these days

[Chorus]
Asante habari habari habari
Asante nabana nabana nabana

[Verse 2]
Getting in mood for a Mombasa night flight
Pushing my luck, going to fly like a mad thing
Bare strip takeoff
Skimming over Rhino
Born in slumber less than peace
Struggle with a child
Whose screaming dreaming
Drowned by the props all steely sunshine
Sick of you, sick of me
Lust for the free life
Quashed and maimed
Like a valuable loved one
Left unnamed
Seemed like another day
I could fly
Into the eye of god on high
Over the bush land over the trees
Wise like Orangutan that was me
His burning eye will see me through
One of these days, one of these days
Got to get a word through one of these days

[Chorus]
Asante habari habari habari
Asante nabana nabana nabana
