"rainin' in paradize" by manu chao

Welcome to paradise (2x)
Today it's raining (4x) (Welcome to paradise)
Today It's raining (Welcome to paradise) (4x)

In Zaire, Was no good place to be
Free world go crazy, it’s an atrocity

In Congo, Still no good place to be
They killed Mibali, it’s a calamity

Go Maasai go Maasai be mellow, Go Maasai go Maasai be sharp (2x)

In Monrovia, this no good place to be
Weapon go crazy, it’s an atrocity

In Palestina, too much hypocrisy
This world go crazy, it's no fatality

Go Maasai go Maasai be mellow, Go Maasai go Maasai be sharp (2x)

Today it’s raining (4x), in paradise
Today it’s raining (4x)

In Baghdad, it's no democracy
That’s just because, it’s a US Country

In Fallujah, too much calamity
This world go crazy, it's no fatality

Go Maasai go Maasai be mellow, Go Maasai go Maasai be sharp (2x)

Today it’s raining (4x)

In Jerusalem, in Monrovia, Guinea-Bissau, today it's raining (3x)

Welcome to paradise, Come to the fairy lies
Welcome to paradise
Today it's raining (4x)
