AIDS oh AIDS, The mention of your name, scares me out the darkness. You crept in and swept our continent. From North to South and from East to West Thousands and thousands you've killed, Spoiled the beauty of our continent curse no meaning to life Yet you are no sacrifice. AIDS do you have Mercy? AIDS, oh AIDS, You are a deadly monster, you've taken our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters, homes left full of grace, why? Just because of Mr. Slim. Others call me Mr. Kill me quick, Scientists have gone to the moon, made nuclear weapons, yet you are no sacrifice. AIDS, do you have mercy? Dear brothers and sisters, Friends and relatives, Sons and daughters And my loving parents, Lend me your ears And get this message right, With your broken heart I am asking you, Please take care of the youth, Stop bad habits, be faithful to each other. This monster never sleeps, there is no cure For AIDS, oh AIDS, do you have mercy? « return. |
