Divorse Party
Lucky Dube · Other Side [2004]
Divorce Party
It is not the 4th of July
but we're celebrating Mr BB and Mrs BB have decided to call it a day
after so many years, living together
they have called us here today
to witness what they call freedom from each other
they've been living in style, they wanna end it in style
they wanna end it with a bang.
chorus
divorce party, divorce party
we see them now
in the middle of the room
holding glasses so high
they not renewing their sacred vows, not at all
but they're telling everybody
what they didn't like about each other
one says, do you remember that day I said that
do you remember that day (x2) you did that
I hope our paths will never meet again
