about

A tounge-in-cheek roast of South African "President" Jacob Zuma

lyrics

Dancing ‘round the Firepool
You’re such a dick; you think you’re cool
But we all know that you’re a fucking imbecile
A prick, a tool

Privileged pirates sit secure
And squander all we struggled for
Your ghastly deeds we can’t ignore
While you recline and laugh -
Hey, fuck the poor!
Fuck ‘em!

Get down in the Firepool
Burn in hell in the Firepool

The left, the right, I don’t, you might
You tussle with your demons
You struggle in the night

The up, the down
You’re such a fucking clown

Always in the headlines
Dealing golden handshakes
Riddled with corruption
Rolling with the punch lines
Never mind the school grade
Need another upgrade

Public condemnation
Disregard for legislation
It’s a sore-point of the nation
As the legacy dies in a fire

The legacy dies… in a fire

Dancing ‘round the Firepool
You’re such a dick; you think you’re cool
But we all know that you’re a fucking imbecile
A prick, a tool

Privileged pirates sit secure
And squander all we struggled for
Your ghastly deeds we can’t ignore
While you recline and laugh

The legacy dies…

Get down in the Firepool
Burn in hell in the Firepool
The legacy dies… in a fire
