Made In Malawi
Factory works 24 hours, never ending,
Production checks are done every now and then
Emergency pills and abortions
Those lucky enough will make it to the end of the assembly line
But no warranty is given
Birth mortality rate on the rise
If that doesn't get you malaria or AIDS will be on your neck
But don't quiver you might make it
Maintenance should be made regularly
Food for the body,
Bible for the soul
But even that is scarce
Food prices on the rise
And the country turned Godless
Homos and lesbians on the prowl
The product expires at 42
The Whiteman's math says that
But still raise your head up high
For you were made in Malawi
