XTC - It's Nearly Africa [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(andy partridge)
Chant your spirit free;
Rush to greet truth like a dart
Shake your bag o'bones
Shake your bag o'bones
That's not traffic roar
That's a leopard in your heart
Shake your bag o'bones
Shake your bag o'bones
Go tell your stale friends
Go tell false prophets
And drug traffickers
Not to try to push our bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly africa
Oh-oh
It's nearly africa
Oh-oh
Any day now
Any day, now now
Unplug future plans;
Finger-paint the sun on you
Shake your bag o'bones
Shake your bag o'bones
Mend your missing links
I think trust should be the glue
Shake your bag o'bones
Shake your bag o'bones
Go tell your warboys
Go tell all leeches
And blind panickers
Not to try to push your bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly africa
Oh-oh
It's nearly africa
Oh-oh
Any day, now
Any day, now now
Our civilisation car is running wild
Who did you give the wheel to?
The fat man driving us over the edge of the nearest cliff-face
Is he the same God that I've seen you kneel to?
