what do the lyrics of waka waka mean
Waka Waka (This Time for Africa) The lyrics of "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" compare football (soccer) players to soldiers on a battlefield and encourage them to fight for their goals.[9] Fraser McAlpine from BBC Music Chart Blog described them to be "about an undisclosed event which is about to happen for Africa, in which everyone gets together and enjoys the fruits of their hard work, even though there have been many hardships along the way."[10] The Spanish version of the song does not contain a war metaphor and instead "talks about walls coming down."[9]
