Were you here five thousands years ago?
Promising the Promised Land
Corinthians, Corinthians
Dancing on unbroken burning sand

Where no trees or living things would grow

Selling the romantic dream
Phoenicians, Phoenicians
Real estate is hard to find, ideas undermined
Wrong place and wrong time

Goodbye, good thing
Africa's a lonely place
Goodbye, good thing
Missionaries in position pray
Oh! Israel!

Yeah, once more

Have you lost what others never find?
Blame the unforgiving sun
Arabians, Arabians
Neighbors are so hard to tame
When you don't look the same
Give them a smile say

Goodbye, good thing
Africa's a lonely place

Goodbye, good thing
Missionaries in position pray
Oh! Israel!

Goodbye, good thing
Africa's a lonely place
Goodbye, good thing
Missionaries in position pray
Goodbye, good thing
Israel!
Goodbye, good thing
Israel!
