Tambariza Lyrics
"Nunua Mango"

CHORUS

nunua mango
hapo kwangu
karibia
msichana mrembo

nunua mango
hapo kwangu
kila siku
si ta kudanganya

VSERSE 1
thats what my uncle mwangi said
on the road with his fruit shop every day,
in the middle of town dressed so well
all his clothes fit in every way

and me on the corner next
looky looky for da fish fresh
looky looky for the business
looky looky for the interest

living with mwangi under the palm tree,
everything he showed me everything he told me
what to grow up to be
end lessly he would TELL me

live up Nairobi like obi wan Kenobi
work for the star fleet, driving a harley
sting like a bee from cassius clay Mohamed ali

but my shirt had one sleeve missing,
im not even kidding, my heart said listen,
nothing wrong with selling a little mango
do it with a twist though, follow this tempo

CHORUS

VERSE 2
Thats what I would stand there and say,
on the road with my fruit shop every day,
in the middle of town dressed so well
all my clothes fit in every way

and my kid on the corner next
looky looky for da fish fresh
looky looky for the business
looky looky for the interest

working with the kid had given me the hope back

everything he said had made it so clear what
he should grow up to be
end lessly he would TELL me

Im not gonna be like you dad
Everyone can hear that I rap like 2pac
Im not selling mango here forever
My lifes already... looking so much better

But no schooltime would not make him shine
He thought he would make it really big
now he's just like me getting a kick
From living on the street shouting to the beat

CHORUS

VERSE 3
Thats what the cool kid would say,
on the road with his fruit shop every day,
in the middle of town dressed so well
all his clothes fit in every way

and me on the corner next
looky looky for da fish fresh
looky looky for the business
looky looky for the interest

Its exactly the same in Mombasa and Havanna
Working on the street or for dolce and gabbana
Tech nology is just a spice but endlessly,
they will advertise

I don't think im being rude (b), but
Happiness comes from an attitude of gratitude
Floating around in sweet paradise
You always get what you want if you ask really nice.

Its time to party louder turn on the power
Im taking a shower I be there in one hour
Im gonna dance like Michael Jackson all night
Coz I refuse to get another mosquito bite

do you want a cigarette - yeah
well you cant get it from me - arhh
Ok you can have a cigarette from me –thanks
But not now – ahh come on
Ok you can have cigarette from me right now – thanks
But not here – arrrhhh come on man
Have a mango........
