People making lists, buying special gifts,
Taking time to be kind to one and all.
It's that time of mwaka when good Marafiki are near,
And wewe wish wewe could give zaidi than just presents from a store.
Why don't wewe give upendo on krisimasi Day
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if wewe would bring
him upendo on krisimasi Day,
No greater gift is there than love.
People wewe don't know smile and nod hello,
Everywhere there's an air of krisimasi joy.
It's that once of mwaka when the world's sincere,
And you'd like to find a way to onyesha the things that words can't say.
Why don't wewe give upendo on krisimasi Day?
The man on the mitaani, mtaa and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone who cares.
Give upendo on krisimasi Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs zaidi love.
Why don't wewe give upendo on krisimasi Day
Every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your upendo underneath his tree
Give upendo on krisimasi Day
No greater gift is there than love.
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs zaidi love.
Taking time to be kind to one and all.

I don't like it baby
When your stopping me on the floor
'Cause the zaidi I keep on dancin'
The zaidi I keep wanting some more
I don't care what your saying
You're talking in my ear much too loud
And the music's taking my body
On a trip from nine to five
Keep me dancin' all night
All night, all night
Gonna dance up fire
Calling engine number 109
There ain't no chains to hold me
Gonna burn this place down till five
wewe can't stop this fever
'Cause my temperature is burning hot
And all I want to do is dance, dance
Sweating from my face to my feet
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night
When your stopping me on the floor
'Cause the zaidi I keep on dancin'
The zaidi I keep wanting some more
I don't care what your saying
You're talking in my ear much too loud
And the music's taking my body
On a trip from nine to five
Keep me dancin' all night
All night, all night
Gonna dance up fire
Calling engine number 109
There ain't no chains to hold me
Gonna burn this place down till five
wewe can't stop this fever
'Cause my temperature is burning hot
And all I want to do is dance, dance
Sweating from my face to my feet
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night
Keep me dancin' all night

OOH, I'VE GOT YOUR PICTURE HANGIN' ON THE WALL
BUT IT CAN'T SEE au COME TO ME
WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME (WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME)

BUT THEY DON'T ME AND THEY DON'T GROOVE ME
LIKE WHEN I HEAR (WHEN I'M IN YOUR ARMS)
YOUR SWEET VOICE WHISPERING IN MY EAR (IN MY EAR)
NO OTHER SOUND
IS QUITE THE SAME AS YOUR NAME (QUITE THE SAME AS YOUR NAME)
NO TOUCH CAN DO HALF AS MUCH TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER
SO LET'S STAY TOGETHER
OOH, I'VE GOT MEMORIES (MEMORIES)TO LOOK BACK ON
THOUGH THEY HELP WHEN YOU'RE GONE
I'M WELL AWARE (I'M WELL AWARE)
NOTHIN' CAN TAKE THE PLACE OF wewe BEING THERE (BEING THERE)
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL, BABY (AIN'T NOTHIN'
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL THING, OOH BABY
