Biko Lyrics

September '77
Port Elizabeth, weather's fine
It was business as usual
In Police Room 619

Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
The man is dead
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
The man is dead

When I go to sleep at night
All my dreams are red
The outside world is black and white
With only one colour dead

Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
The man is dead
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
The man is dead

You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the wind begins to catch
The flame will blow higher

Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
And the world is watching now, watching now
And the world is watching now, watching now
