Be part of the tradition and promote Uganda’s culture.
Culture, culture, culture!
The roots of culture are gone.
Its wonders are no more.
Its treasures were rooted,
Its heritage is hanging-
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! The promoter of social integrity...
Murdered by the invaders,
Slaughtered by its own people,
Smuggled by thy friends,
Cursed by its own blood-
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! The promoter of peace and unity...
Ignored by thy citizens,
Escaping like gasses,
Leaking like a liquid,
Uprooted like weeds-
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! The promoter of communal understanding...
Blocked as water in the reservoir,
Captured as a prisoner of war,
Tested as if it had no value,
Naked as a birthday suit-
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! The promoter of entertainment...
The endangered culture,
The melting culture,
The culture downcast like a shadow,
The winding culture,
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! Shapes moral identities and attitudes...
Artificial like an invention,
Taking refuge like immigrants of war,
Encroached upon like a forest,
The culture with no hope-
The hanging culture.
Oooh, culture! The promoter of tourism and development...
