[00:11.83](With Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Vusi Mahlasela)
[00:17.83]I knew a man who lived in fear
[00:22.95]It was huge, it was angry,
[00:26.23]It was drawing near.
[00:29.52]Behind his house a secret place
[00:34.84]Was the shadow of the demon
[00:38.19]He could never face.
[00:41.63]He built a wall of steel and flame
[00:47.57]And men with guns to keep it tame
[00:53.51]Then standing back he made it plain
[00:58.79]That the nightmare would never ever rise again
[01:05.51]But the fear and the fire and the guns remain.
[01:12.36]It doesn t matter now it s over anyhow
[01:18.30]He tells the world that it s sleeping
[01:24.32]But as the night came round I heard
[01:28.13]It slowly sound
[01:30.32]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping
[01:36.44]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping.
[01:43.19]And then one day the neighbours came
[01:48.31]They were curious to know about the smoke and flame
[01:55.13]They stood around outside the wall
[02:00.27]But of course there was nothing to be heard at all
[02:07.07]"My friends," he said, "We ve reached our goal
[02:13.11]The threat is under firm control
[02:19.02]As long as peace and order reign
[02:24.36]I ll be damned if I can see a reason to explain
[02:30.98]Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain."
[02:37.97]It doesn t matter now it s over anyhow
[02:43.81]He tells the world that it s sleeping
[02:49.57]But as the night came round I heard
[02:53.57]It slowly sound
[02:55.87]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping
[03:02.00]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping.
[03:06.62]Say ah, say ah, say ah
[03:12.65]Say ah, say ah, say ah
[03:30.93]It doesn t matter now it s over anyhow
[03:37.02]It doesn t matter now it s over anyhow
[03:44.00]It doesn t matter now it s over anyhow
[03:49.78]He tells the world that it s sleeping
[03:55.81]But as the night came round I heard
[03:59.53]It slowly sound
[04:01.81]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping
[04:07.81]It wasn t roaring, it was weeping.
[04:12.88]Say ah, say ah, say ah
[04:18.66]Say ah, say ah, say ah (to end)
