Françafrique Lyrics

Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Kill,Kill,Kill

The color of the collar
Trumps the skin
No matter what state is in
The congo's wealth will do just fine
With cold war status in decline
Sycophant
Cleptocracy built on the graves
Of IDPs
A blanket stitched with national pride
Look beneath it's genocide

Françafrique
Françafrique
The congo basin bleeding still
Françafrique
Françafrique
The congo basin bleeding still
Genocide was Paris' will

Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Murder
Kill,Kill,Kill

Mobutu congo pimp and whore
As Paris' puppets guard the door
Twenty years on the earth still bleeds
Nine million less mouths to feed
Hollywood brutality tribe and race
Is all we see
The final word on french cuisine
Bokassa's freezer in guide Michelin

Françafrique
Françafrique
The congo basin bleeding still
Françafrique
Françafrique
Genocide was Paris' will
Françafrique
Congo-Belgique

Just another world for genocide
Just another world for genocide
Just another world for genocide
Just another world for genocide
Just another word for genocide
Just another word for genocide

Just another word
Just another word
Just another word
Just another word

Just another word for genocide
Just another word for genocide
Just another world for genocide
Just another world for genocide

Just another word
Just another word
Just another word
Just another word

Murder,Murder,Murder,Murder,Murder,Murder
Kill,Kill,Kill

Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes

Go
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes

Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
Exterminate the brutes
Exterminate all the brutes
