Dreams Of My Beaded Pondo Hat

Wake up at 3am in the morning
Write down your dreams
Light the fire down in the kitchen
Have a sacred steam

Tell the bad spirits to fuck off
Burn your spliff
Eat more millipap

Baby bathin naked in the river
Walk down haul water from the river

The ganga must be cut down
Before the rains starts
Dry the aloe and tobacco
Crush to make the snuff

Suck your spliff
Eat more millipap

Chop down dead wood round forest
Collect the medicine on the mountain

Dance around the sacrificed cow skin drum
Come on clap along
In trance the ancient words are sung

Burn your spliff
Drink umqombothi

Dance and clean in the cream of mphepo’s dream
Shake the rope rash cymbals strapped around your ankles
adorned with beads

Wake up at 3am in the morning
Write down your dreams
Light the fire down in the kitchen
Have a sacred steam
Makhosi
Makhosi
