[00:00.81]In this part of Africa, we ALL have a saying
[00:04.11]whenever something bad happens
[00:06.57]we just throw our hands up to the sky and say
[00:10.07]HASA DIGA EEBOWAI!
[00:12.17]Hasa Diga Eebowai?
[00:14.04]It's the only way to get through all these troubled times.
[00:17.44]There's war, poverty, famine…
[00:20.69]but having a saying makes it all seem better!
[00:25.04]There isn't enough food to eat.
[00:27.24]Hasa Diga Eebowai.
[00:29.34]People are starving in the street.
[00:31.94]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[00:34.14]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[00:38.44]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[00:43.44]Well, that's pretty neat!
[00:44.94]Does it mean no worries for the rest of our days?
[00:48.39]Kind of!
[00:49.84]We've had no rain in several days.
[00:52.20]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[00:54.35]And eighty percent of us have AIDS.
[00:56.80]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[00:58.75]Many young girls here get circumcised,
[01:01.25]Their clits get cut right off.
[01:02.42]Way oh!
[01:03.52]And so we say up to the sky
[01:05.97]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:07.97]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:12.57]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:17.52]Now you try. Just stand up tall
[01:20.92]tilt your head to the sky,
[01:22.82]and list all the bad things in YOUR life.
[01:26.07]Somebody took our luggage away!
[01:28.62]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:30.79]The plane was crowded and the bus was late!
[01:33.24]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:35.54]When the world is getting you down,
[01:37.59]There's nobody else to blame.
[01:39.24]Way oh!
[01:39.84]Raise a middle finger to the sky,
[01:41.74]And curse his rotten name.
[01:43.39]Wait, what?
[01:44.19]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:46.19]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[01:46.99]Am I saying it right?
[01:48.69]Excuse me, what EXACTLY does that phrase mean?
[01:52.64]Well, let's see…'Eebowai' means 'God'
[01:57.04]and 'Hasa Diga' means 'FUCK#YOU'
[02:01.31]So I guess in English it would be,
[02:03.56]'FUCK#YOU, God!'
[02:05.76]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:07.61]What?
[02:08.06]When God fucks you in the butt.
[02:10.31]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:12.41]Fuck God back right in his cunt!
[02:14.86]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:16.76]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:21.01]FUCK#YOU, God
[02:21.91]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:25.31]FUCK#YOU, God
[02:26.71]Excuse me sir
[02:27.81]you should really not be saying that.
[02:29.96]Things aren't always as bad as they seem.
[02:32.11]Oh really? Take this fucking asshole, Mutumbo.
[02:36.36]He got caught last week trying to rape a baby.
[02:39.52]What? Why?
[02:40.57]Some people in his tribe
[02:42.22]believe having sex with a virgin will cure their AIDS.
[02:45.32]There aren't many virgins left
[02:47.37]so some of them are turning to babies.
[02:50.07]But…that's horrible!
[02:51.22]I know!
[02:52.27]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[02:54.52]Here's the butcher, he has AIDS.
[02:56.77]Here is the teacher, she has AIDS.
[02:58.92]Here is the doctor, he has AIDS
[03:01.17]Here is my daughter, she has A…
[03:05.17]…Wonderful disposition.
[03:08.12]She's all I have left in the world.
[03:11.57]And if either of you lays a hand on her
[03:18.08]I will give you my AIDS.
[03:21.43]If you don't like what we say
[03:23.33]Try living here a couple days.
[03:25.43]Watch all your friends and family die.
[03:28.08]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[03:30.13]FUCK#YOU
[03:32.87]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
[03:35.12]FUCK#YOU God in the ass, mouth,and cunt –a
[03:37.52]FUCK#YOU God in the ass, mouth,and cunt –a
[03:39.72]FUCK#YOU God in the ass, mouth,and cunt –a
[03:41.92]FUCK#YOU in the eye!
[03:44.83]Hasa Diga Eebowai!
