I am here to tell you a tale of a male killer whale
Swimming and bleeding in the waters of this nations well
Making it pink like ink and unfit to drink from the well
This whale is interfering with our nation’s wealth
NHIF it contaminated so we can’t have good health
Those ridding on the whale say SHA is the way to better health
But SHIF shifted our attention from the real deal now we can’t heal
Come, help me purge this whale from waters of our nation’s well.
That road leading to market is nothing but a thicket
Milk vendors it ties on sight in thick tight bra-cket
They slide wide with no pride spilling the milk from the bucket
Some escape with physical injuries while others kick the bucket
But all suffers from financial injuries because they broke the bucket
The money set to build the road is resting in few people’s pockets
Listen, this is the whale I am talking about…it swims in every docket
And without brain and bargain it drains our nation’s pocket
Come, help me purge this whale from waters of our nation’s well.
Well, for the future generation I wish everything was well
But now we can’t really tell, just the other day we heard CS finance tell
THIS NATION CAN NO LONGER SUPPORT FREE EDUCATION
Yet the president is giving out free millions in Harambees and the stars
Which is not bad, but what should be our priority as a nation aiming for the stars
The future of our nation or pleasing of a few stars
This will unite us for a moment but even Alicia can unite us with ka nini
We are funs but not only….we are the citizens of this nation
Come, help purge this whale from the waters of our nation’s well.
I’d like to tell you more about the whale but you know it well
Remember, remember that relative, that friend that cuzo of yours
Tarmacking looking for a job in government offices
Only to be told to get the job he must pay some bob and buy that job
Is this the ordeal Job went through but still he had faith in God
Unfortunate for us we can’t have faith in our government
So we paid school fees took educational loans only to buy a job
This whale is slowly drowning this nation in the deep end
Come, help me purge this whale from the waters of our nation’s well.
Let’s take a moment
Let’s take a moment as a nation to reflect on our actions
The actions that drives and controls the reactions of this killer whale
If we want to save this nation we must kill the killer whale
Before it kills our dreams as a nation and make us fail
Let this piece of art written from my heart open our eyes as a nation
And make us take a stand against this killer whale called corruption
Come, help me purge this whale from the waters of our nation’s well.
