Promises

We all have a story in the name of Job offers

Bena ina pasa Bena we are street soldiers

Yanga ili common tonse tinakapitamo

nika interview after that nikupyamo

What did you study? Una graduata liti

Call me on Tuesday Monday nimankala busy

Infact I will call you just keep your cell on

Here let’s do this put your number my phone

Ah Naise tamvelela ati finally yapasa

Kansi niku moba nima story yapa nsaka

After one bottle abo beve niku soba

Tuesday ikafika bana ngeneka pa bowa

Phone niyozima week yonse mpaka Friday

Babwela na story uzamvela ati mwaiche

Sorry I was busy nenzeli ku sinazongwe

Network kwenzelibe ina bwelela pa Chongwe. but

(Chorus)

You can bring your papers

Fakamo na CV, Reg isa shote

When you are done just call me

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises

Call me on Monday or Come to my Office

Apa I am busy let me call you back shortly

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises

first nikambeko, awe sininga suleko

I am tired of what I see I am fuming mumveleko.

Nisakila ka job I wanna work for my money

But daily nima boza but mukonda tu nkani

Naineh niwameko mwati ni iyi gender ina

Kuti baitenge chabe nchito niku limba

She looks representable mu wig no vikuti

Asikila nchito imwe muyangana tupi

She really needs the job but you see an opportunity

What choice does she have afuno chokamu poverty

Think about your daughter your wife or your sister

It is really sickening now listen to me mister

Nivi nchito chabe it is all about the money

On a serious note Chief, I doubt this is funny

Shez a human being but you take her for a tool

Now she hates all men and it’s all because of you but

(Chorus)

You can bring your papers

Fakamo na CV, Reg isa shote

When you are done just call me

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises

Call me on Monday or Come to my Office

Apa I am busy let me call you back shortly

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises

(Verse 3)

One last problem and its name is politicians

Ku winako kamozi banankala ma magicians

Ba bwela na ma story nizami sebenzelani

Nivotelenkoni nizami kondwelesani

I promise you money ma nchito siyo Kamba

Dollar nizagwesa Eh Tekanyani bakamba

Dollar ili peh ingo kwela malupili

Kuti ukwele che ka bus manje ufunika zambili

Ndise beti voter boss timvelelenikoni

Poti laya vintu mwati muma mvela nsoni

you promise us the world mu ka wina mu fimbapo

we are one country mwati muma ganizapo

When you go abroad imwe simuma kumbwako?

Or you play a blind eye aweh Simuma onako?

I know it’s not easy sinchito yaba baby

Talemo chinja bantu nangu uyu Ah Maybe

(Chorus)

You can bring your papers

Fakamo na CV, Reg isa shote

When you are done just call me

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises

Call me on Monday or Come to my Office

Apa I am busy let me call you back shortly

Promises eh, promises

That’s all you are good at making fake promises
