Panzi paweni mayo (At other peoples village)
Performer / Recordist
Description / content note
At another peoples villages it is better when you are alive. There used to be a house here. Why was it taken away? It is because you are too talkative." There seems to be some sound common sense about this song but somehow it escapes the singers whose minds have receded towrds the pleasures of trivialities. It is a good thing to have your wits about you when drinking away from home or you may be tempted to make such observations as I am sure there used to be a house here. Old boy, what has happened to it? And as the song implies make a fool of yourself. Drinking song with clapping.
