Hasa Diga Eebowai
MAFALA: In this part of Africa, we ALL have a saying-
whenever something bad happens, we just throw our hands up to the sky and say
HASA DIGA EEBOWAI
ELDER CUNNINGHAM: Hasa Diga Eebowai?
MAFALA: It's the only way to get through all these troubled times.
There's war, poverty, famine... but having a saying makes it all seem better!
There isn't enough food to eat!
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
People are starving in the street!
UGANDANS and MAFALA: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai
Hasa Diga Eebowai
ELDER PRICE: Well, that's pretty neat!
ELDER CUNNINGHAM: Does it mean no worries for the rest of our days?
MAFALA: Kind of!
We've had no rain in several days!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
MAFALA: And 80% of us have AIDS!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
MAFALA:Many young girls here get circumcised,
Their clits get cut right off. ( ALL: Way oh!)
WOMEN: And so we say up to the sky-
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Hasa Diga Eebowai
Hasa Diga Eebowai
MAFALA: Now you try!
Just stand up tall, tilt your head to the sky,
and list off all the bad things in your life!
ELDER CUNNINGHAM: Somebody took our luggage away!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
ELDER PRICE: The plane was crowded and the bus was late!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
MAFALA: When the world is getting you down,
There's nobody else to blame ( UGANDANS: Way oh!)
MAFALA: Raise your middle finger to the sky,
And curse his rotten name!
ELDER PRICE: Wait, what?!
ELDER CUNNINGHAM: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
Am I saying it right?
ELDER PRICE: Excuse me sir, but what EXACTLY does that phrase mean?
MAFALA: Well, lets see...
"Eebowai" means "God".
And "Hasa Diga" means... "F*ck You".
So I guess in English it would be "F*ck you, God!"
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
ELDER PRICE: WHAT?!
MAFALA: When God f*cks you in the butt-
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
MAFALA: F*ck him right back in his c*nt!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai
Hasa Diga Eebowai
Hasa Diga Eebowai
F*ck you, God!
ELDER PRICE: Excuse me, Sir, but you should really NOT be saying that.
Things aren't always as bad as they seem!
MAFALA: Oh really? Well take this f*cking asshole, Mutumbo here
He got caught last week trying to RAPE a baby.
ELDER PRICE: What?! Why?!
MAFALA: Some people in his tribe believe having sex with a virgin will cure their AIDS.
There aren't many virgins left, so some of them are turning to babies.
ELDER PRICE: But... that's horrible!
MAFALA: I know!
UGANDANS: Hasa Diga Eebowai!
MAFALA: Here's the butcher, he has AIDS.
Here's the teacher, she has AIDS.
Here's the doctor, he has AIDS.
Here's my daughter, she has A... wonderful disposition.
She's all I have left in the world.
And if either of you lays a hand on her...
I will give you my AIDS!
UGANDANS: If you don't like what we say,
Try living here a couple days!
Watch all your friends and family die!
Hasa Diga Eebowai! (F*ck you!)
Hasa Diga Eebowai!
F*ck you God in the ass, mouth and c*nt-a
F*ck you God in the ass, mouth and c*nt-a
F*ck you God in the ass, mouth and c*nt-a
F*ck you in the eye!
Hasa- Diga Eebowai
Hasa- F*ck you in the other eye!
Hasa- Diga Eebowai
Hasa- Diga Eebowai
Hasa- Diga Eebowai
Hasa Diga-
F*ck you God-
In the c*nt!
