[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Heat shimmers
Hips quiver
Open smother
Lipped lover
[Chorus 1]
Dead in the middle of the C-O-double-M-O-N
Little did I know then that the Mandela Boys
Soon become Mandela Men
Razor blades on a melted toothbrush
Assassin de la police
[Verse 2]
Heat shimmers
Silky glistener
Open smother
Lipped lover
[Chorus 2]
Dead in the middle of the C-O-double-M-O-N
Little did I know then that the Mandela Boys
Soon become Mandela Men
Silent knife, unholy knife
I’ve fallen for the black outside my window
On the C-O-double-M-O-N
On the C-O-double-M-O-N
[Refrain]
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
A flood of blood to the heart
Quelea, quelea

Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
Quelea, quelea
