Rainin in Paradize Lyrics

Welcome to paradise
Today it's raining
(Welcome to paradise)
Today It's raining
(Welcome to paradise)

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 kill me buddy, it’s a calamity

Go Maasai go Maasai be mellow,
Go Maasai go Maasai be sharp

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

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

Go Maasai go Maasai be mellow,
Go Maasai go Maasai be sharp

Today it’s raining
in paradise
Today it’s raining

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

Today it’s raining

In Jerusalem, in Monrovia, Guinea-Bissau,
today it's raining

Welcome to paradise, Come to the fairy lies
Welcome to paradise
Today it's raining

Probably the best song of Manu Chao. Lyrics are simple but the whole song is really catchy. And it's about war...does that make it more important - hard to say, but for most bands it works. Anyway, good song.

That's wrong, he doesn't say "The kill me buddy", they say "They killed Mibali", Mibali is a word in Lingala, a language spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It means "The men".
