[intro]
who will tell africa’s story?
who will stand proudly and proclaim the greatness of this

who’s ready to fight for a greater africa, a greater uganda?
you are! !

arch nemesis loving uganda
[hook]
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders

[verse one]
the 9th of october, 1962
after some dependence, we gained independence
end of colonialism, british imperialism
birth of a nation, then our true ascendence
all across africa were the same power struggles
making history with the black victories
then mutesa ii became our first president
then came milton obote, 1966
then idi amin dada, king of the stigmata
then later on came the one museveni
the man with the power since 1986
and real headmaster of these politics
the city is called kampala, the code is 256
when you land in entebbe, it’s the pearl of africa
when you drive into jinja, it’s the source of the nile
and if it’s gulu where you at, celebrate matthew lukwiya
[hook]
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders
put your hands up
if you’re loving uganda
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders

if you’re loving uganda
[verse two]
the crested-crane is the emblem, we never complain
we got the kob, nah, it’s not all over the globe
we got the drum, yeah, the true african drum
we got the spears, the shield, true power revealed
lake victoria is the third largest in the world
and mabira is the largest natural forest in uganda
the mountain rwenzori is the place of glory
and the river nile is the longest one in the world
we got so much to see, so much to explore
national parks delight, and make you come back
historical sites with more than you can ever write
archeological sites from back in the ancient nights
like the bigo bya mugenyi, the land of the chwezi
the first human beings to master mystical powers
the land of the great bunyoro-kitara
it’s uganda of the great, like the king kabalega
[hook]
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders

the land of the wonders

[verse three]
there’s poverty eradication with the right education
need to teach more thinkers, really need innovators
teach kids to write books, not merely read them
educating boys and girls to build a greater nation
used to be a large producer of cotton and coffee
but now that’s all history like colonel gaddafi
with everything we own now being made in china
we need to wake up and, start producing for ourselves
we got the albertine oil, hoping it’s a blessing
we got salt in katwe, since the dawn of time
we got clean electric power, but there’s still load shedding
and we produce more sugar than we can pay for
there’s africa all around us, let us celebrate her
with religion and beliefs from our very own past
preserve the culture and languages of our own fathers
and never let go of the science and tech
[hook]
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders
put your hands up
if you’re loving uganda
we need a better uganda
the land of the wonders
put your hands up
if you’re loving uganda
[outro]
africa’s greatest problem is a lack of self-pride, a
suppression of imagination and the refusal to celebrate and
encourage thinking
we’ll see more positive change if we turn off the tv set
than if we burn down the witch-doctor’s shrine
let’s go create a nu africa
