Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everybody has a heart
Everybody gets a feeling
Let's play!
Sound box!
Rock, reggae, jazz, mbalax
All around the world, the same
Pachanga, soul music, rhythm and blues
La samba, la rumba, cha-cha-cha
The same
Sound is the same for all the world
Everybody has a heart
Everybody gets a feeling
Mbaqanga, ziglibiti, high life music
The same
Merengue, funk, Chinese music
The same
Bossa nova, soul makossa, rap music
The same
Come on people, dance
Everybody in the world has a culture
Believe what you believe
Respect your customs
Everybody must do what the heart says
Don't cause trouble
Treat people well
Be sociable
Exchange ideas
