As the start of the World Cup looms, K'Naan's profile stands to grow exponentially, as his "Wavin' Flag" is the World Cup's official anthem. But he had to make one crucial change to accomplish becoming the World Cup's shill: He had to change the lyrics to "Wavin' Flag" to make them more positive and to get them to jive with the campaign that Coke has lined up for the World Cup. According to Billboard, K'Naan did it willingly.
SLAVING SLAG
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
Squat on the throne, pissing out foam
Di'betes prone, poor people moan
But biodromes, all have been blown
Where corn got grown, beets no more loamed
Out of the darkness, no more cane sugar
Among the soda survivors
Learn from these treats, Pepsi be bleak
Except for the sweet, corn syrup replete
So we chugglin', citing the sheet
And we wonderin', that it's fat-free
So we patiently sate til that fateful day
We're too fat to weigh, but for now we say...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
Ohhhhhhh...
So soda wars, settlin' scores
Bringin' us promises, leavin' us poor
I heard 'em say, Coke is the way
Coke is the answer, that's what they say
But look how they treat us
Make us but fevered, we bite their bottles
Peeing relieves us
Tried to control us, so then they sold us
Cuz we just moved forward like buffaloed soldiers
So we chugglin', citing the sheet
And we wonderin', that it's fat-free
So we patiently sate til that fateful day
We're too fat to weigh, but for now we say...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
Ohhhhhhh...
Ohhhhhhh...
Ohhhhhhh...
Ohhhhhhh...
And everybody will be drinking it
And you and I will be drinking it
And we all will be drinking it
Ohhhhhhh...
Ohhhhhhh...
Ohhhhhhh...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow...
When I get older, I will be monger
For Coca-cola, just like a slavin' slag
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
And profits grow black
Ohhhhhhh...
When I get older, said when I get older,
When I get older, just like a slavin' slag
Just like a slavin' slag,
Just like a slavin' slag
Sag, sag,
Just like a slavin' slag
