Song Lyrics:
[Bono=Normal, Various=Italics]
This song, written by Little Steven…called Sun City
I…I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Yeah… hey-hey-hey
I…I…I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Yeah-hey…oh
Relocation to phony homelands
Separation of families I can’t understand
22-3 million can’t vote because they’re black
We’re stabbing our mothers, our sisters in the back
I…I-I…I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Nona Hendryx, Little Stevie
I, I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Sing for me
Our government tells us we’re doing all we can
Ronald, Ronald, what is Ronald Reagan’s plan
Meanwhile people are dying and giving up hope
Well this quiet diplomacy ain’t nothing but a joke
I…I…I ain’t gonna play Sun City
No-no-no-no-no-no
Yeah I, I-I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City, yeah-heh
Soweto….South Africa
Soweto….South Africa
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na yeah
Ruben Blades
Na-na-na-na, na-na yeah
Mr. Lou Reed
You gotta sing it
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-yeah
1-2-3-4
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na yeah
Yeah…ah
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na yeah
1-2-3-4
It’s time to accept our responsibility
Freedom is a privilege, nobody rides for free
Look around the world, baby, it cannot be denied
Why are we always on the wrong side
Say I, I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Yeah-heh-heh-heh-heh
I, I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Naw-naw-naw baby
Sing it
I, I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Oh no, no, no, no
Say I, I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Yeah-heh-heh-heh
I, I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Yeah-heh-heh-heh
I, I-I, I ain’t gonna play Sun City
Thank you, good night
God bless you
Thank you
Thank you very much
Good night
