Man created Gods, the reverse is laughable
Believing is as hazy as ganja
Take a hit from your joint, poor rasta
And inhale your parables

Over there in Ethiopia is a dark idol
Haile Selassie, Negus, King of Kings
Descendant of Moses, according to some
As for me, I take their word for it

Slaves protect him under black parasols
From the white sky of Addis Ababa
At his feet, a lion cub, emblem of Judah
Symbol

In his distant palace, the Negus isolates himself
Prisoner after a new coup d'état
Maybe executed, who knows by whom or what

So ask the C.I.A. or Interpol
