The singing

[Googly]

Here's a big ask.

Taps can you please shed some light on the singing. The white boys want to know the words of the songs.

I learnt a fair amount yesterday but can’t say I know what much of it means I think some of them are war songs and some are hunting songs

There are various versions of baya wabaya recorded over the last 40 years, but its origins are much older...not sure the crowd is doing much more than singing the chorus!

The fan favourite basically goes like "why do you give him alcohol, why do you give him booze, look now he is drunk he is talking nonsense". I think it comes from the chorus of a song

The good thing about Zimbabwe is that anyone who went to a boys school understands the process of support. This is why you see that even in Australia they were going off. Its part of our DNA

My fav is the Raza chant, it basically goes,"Raza is full of Cremora on his balls" its vulgar and the best part is Raza knows this chant and he actually sings it as well!

Part of his half-century celebration is mimicking a person drinking a cup of tea, I suppose with some Cremora in it.
