Waka-waka is Do It, Do It!!

When I was in the stadium, waiting for the kicks off, this song were playing repeateadly (plus the catchy Coke commercial + UN advert) So now I can never listen to this song like I listen to any other song. Some feelings are just to hard to fathom....

Waka-waka (This time for Africa) by Shakira

You’re a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle

You’re on the front line
Everyone’s watching
You know it’s serious
We are getting closer
This isn’t over

The pressure is on
You feel it
But you got it all
Believe it

When you fall get up, oh oh
If you fall get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Cuz this is Africa
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Listen to your God
This is our motto
Your time to shine
Don’t wait in line
Y vamos por todo

People are raising
Their expectations
Go on and feed them
This is your moment
No hesitations

Today’s your day
I feel it
You paved the way
Believe it
If you get down get up, oh oh

When you get down get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

(Lady Singing)

Voice:

Tsamina mina,
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina
Tsamina mina,
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina, eh eh

Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
Django eh eh

Django eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
Django eh eh

Django eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
(2x) This time for Africa
(2x) We’re all Africa


*I definitely lived up to the song!! ;)
