“On Sunday (Jumapili), Rooney’s mother will come, and so we should prepare our drums and music, because she has to come and it is important for her to come. She is our biggest supporter and we know she will bring us goodies, so let us prepare our Marimba because music is something to be don when she comes.” This is a song that praises a wealthy lady who is about to visit the village, and she supports the musicians when she visits. So the musicians are talking about getng ready for hr and making good music for her.

Lyrics: Shamba Boy
“When Malimbo was employed by Dula to work as his farm-hand (shamba boy), Dula made it a living hell for him. He wanted him to work on every single thing on his homestead, including work that was not meant for him. To be born poor, you must be ready to go through a lot of trouble. It is beter to be without food and be hungry than to work for Dula.” This song critcizes the nature with which some employers treat their workers. It encourages people to stand their ground and void being used.
