Tanzania this is one of your biggest mistakes

The Maasai are up in arms

and why wouldn’t they be

Tanzania is rippling its muscles

we see

600 square miles

of a wild life corridor

they are setting aside

and we all know what for

 

next to the Serengeti National Park

and the conservation area

Ngorongoro

no lark

 

thousands of Maasai

told they  must go

from their homes

and their farms

its going to show

 

 

Tanzania up for what it does do

encourage the hunters

the canned hunters too

Ortello Business Corp

a UAR team

will get the concession

and thus all the cream

 

 

we know trophy hunting is

vile to the extreme

Botswana is banning it

I hear the scream

 

of Afrika rising above the marula

the baobab trees

where the branches are cooler

we have to realize

Afrika cries

canned hunting is evil

the collective sighs

 

of the maasai  people

who know it is bad

Tanzania your error

of judgement is sad

 

avaaz throws its gauntlet

down into the sand

the world will respond

for we are a band

 

pf people who care about people

who care

and Afrika cries loud

now in despair
