Lucky Dube - Mickey Mouse Freedom

Put his coat on his shoulder
And slowly he walked away
Behind him he could hear those innocent voices
Crying out so bitterly - saying
We did not start the war, but we fighting now
We did not start the fire, but we burning now
They were told many years ago
That their country is free
But they didn't understand
That it's not real

They never knew it was a
Mickey mouse freedom, yeah
I tell you it is a mickey mouse freedom, yeah
I tell you it is a mickey mouse freedom, yeah
It is a mickey mouse independence, yeah
It is a mickey mouse independence, yeah
I tell you it is a mickey mouse independence, oh!

(..)

Me come inna you country
That is said to be free
Me come inna you country
That is said to be free
Me sight corruption, me sight starvation
Walking like a millionaire
'Cause you think your country is free
One thing you don't know is that
Your country is being remote controlled

It is a mickey mouse freedom, yeah
It is a mickey mouse independence, yeah
It is a mickey mouse freedom
It is a mickey mouse independence, yeah
Listen to me!
It is a mickey mouse independence, yeah
