[idi * spoken]
okay, right now, here we goin’ again from de top. now dis time the first violins, uh, i want you to plug, uh, plug de instruments into de gas main because, uh, i’m not gettin’ de sound i am liking
and de wives who are forming the backing group, uh, you come ’round to de front of me where i can keep my eye on you. that’s better
now here we are goin’. stop, now, stop now when i am tellin’… listen! stop! shut up! thank you
now, i am counting you in with the well*known counting tings. here we go
one

…
(ooh no, what come after two?)

he de general, de president
he king of the scene
idi, idi, idi amin
[idi * verse]

what risin’ to de top an’ gettin’ chopped again
no*one fathomin’ de secret of de whole d*mn ting
you got to give the population something to sing
[chorus]
idi, idi, idi amin
most amazin’ man there’s ever been
he de general, de president
he king of the scene
idi, idi, idi amin
[idi * verse]

he de general, de president
he king of the scene

[idi * verse]
a modern leader got to twist and shout
gotta tell de people “let it all hang out”
if you don’t want to vanish with a boot up de bum
you got to give the population something to hum

keep on goin’ there, lads!
