“Sisi, do you hear me?
Don’t joke around
We’re dying Mr. President

Sisi, didn’t you tell us
That you’ll spoil us?
How about it, Mr. President?

Sisi, do you hear me?
Don’t joke around
We’re dying Mr. President

Sisi, didn’t you tell us
That you’ll spoil us?
How about it, Mr. President?

Petrol got expensive
Foul^ followed it
Flour got expensive
So bread got expensive
And whoever spoke out
Ran off
Before getting beaten up
And two celebrities got married

Life is now shit
We’re all depressed
Bills are piling up
Why has electricity gone up?
A water bottle is five pounds
Why are you arresting people for dancing?
Taxes don’t do anything
And loans are going up
Do you hear me?
There’s no more money
I did the impossible
But there’s no money
No this isn’t funny
The tablet [iPads] won’t work
Believe me, honey

Sisi, do you hear me?
Don’t joke around
We’re dying Mr. President”
