Pushing my luck, gonna fly like a mad thing
His burning eye will see me through
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
One of these days, one of these days
Wise like Orangutan that was me
Hey ho, he wished me well
Bent on a windfall rent a Sony
Over the bushland, over the trees
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
Undermine chairman I went too far
Into the eye of God on high
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
Into the eye of God on high
Drowned by the props all steely sunshine
One of these days, one of these days
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
Born in slumber less than peace
His burning eye will see me through
Seemed like another day I could fly
Into the eye of God on high
Gotta get a word to Elizabeth's father
One of these days, one of these days
Struggle with a child whose screaming dreaming
Sick of you, sick of me
Lust for the free life, quashed and maimed
Gotta get a word through one of these day
Gotta get a word through one of these days
Wonder how the dollar went down
Gotta get a word through one of these days
I slide to the nearest bar
Seemed like another day I could fly
His burning eye will see me through
Gotta get a word through one of these day
Bare strip take-off skimming over Rhino
Like a valuable loved one left unnamed
One of these days, one of these days
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
Asanti habari habari, asanti nabana nabana
His burning eye will see me through
Getting in mood for a Mombassa night flight
Seemed like another day I could fly
