September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In police room 619
/ A - / D - / :
{Refrain}
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
The man is dead, the man is dead
/ A - D - / / G Bm / D - A - /
When I try to sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one color dead
{Refrain}
You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
The wind will blow it higher
{Refrain}
And the eyes of the world are
Watching now
Watching now
/ D - / A - / D - A - /
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, na na na na na
Oh oh oh, na na na na na
So Biko, Biko
Oh Biko, Biko
