Lyrics: Taunting from the hill tops, just out of reach Smiling pretty smiles, telling your white lies Stringing me along on your sweet promises Humi you sure know how to Tantalize You give yourself to those who dont deserve you You go where you are not supposed to be I know someday that I am going to have you Someday youll have to give yourself to me Amandla, Amandla dancin in the distance, sayin Ill be free Amandla, Amandla its time to change your partner Its time to dance with me Amandla, Amandla youre hanging with the wrong crowd You need a change of scene Amandla, Amandla dont lose all your self-respect You know just what I mean Standin on Commissioner street, in the pouring rain Tappin my toe, tappin my toe This time I was so sure that you would be here But once again you decided not to show Amandla, Amandla dancin in the distance, sayin Ill be free Amandla, Amandla its time to change your partner Its time to dance with me Amandla, Amandla youre hanging with the wrong crowd You need a change of scene Amandla, Amandla dont lose all your self-respect You know just what I mean Youre running with the fools, You know Im more your style Driving me crazy with that someday smile Amandla, Amandla dancin in the distance, sayin Ill be free Amandla, Amandla its time to change your partner Its time to dance with me Amandla, Amandla youre hanging with the wrong crowd You need a change of scene Amandla, Amandla dont lose all your self-respect You know just what I mean Youre hanging with the wrong crowd You need a change of scene Dont you lose your self-respect You know just what I mean Amandla Amandla Amandla Amandla Amandla Amandla Amandla Amandla |
