Lyrics Biko

September seventy-seven
Port Elizabeth, weather fine
It was business as usual in police room six one nine
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja
Yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead
Ale, ale, ale, ale, ale
When I try and sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white with only one colour dead
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja
Yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead
You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch the wind will blow it higher
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Oh, Biko
Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja
Yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead
And the eyes of the world are watching now watching now
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Aah oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh
