“Party @ Parktown Mansions” was released as a single on the lead up to the South African general elections on 7 May 2014. This was a time when political parties were out dishing out manifestos and canvassing for the elections.
The song addresses the plight of the apathetic voter which best characte...
[Verse 1]
Soul agents on a mission to save the planet
No longer lost in the doubt of it being an illusion
We’re moments of evolution in motion
We’ve come to terms with the soul never eroding
Pink people at night in Parktown Mansions
Skin lightening just cause it’s in fashion
Pink people happy brown things do happen
Believe in this revolution and not this party
[Chorus]
(Party)
Not this (party, party)
Not this (party, party)
Not this (party, party)
(Party, party)
Not this (party, party)
Not this (party, party)
Not this (party, party)
(Party, party)
[Verse 2]
I’m eating sushi in paradise with whoever (whoever)
And loaded cause it don’t last forever
The chivalry of whisky on her lips (It's on her lips, it's on her lips)
She’s lost in the cars it’s the sound of her hips
Brown people at night in Diepkloof Mansions
You’re hanging with him cause he’s in fashion (Fashion)
Brown people, happy pink things do happen
Believe in this evolution and not this party
[Chorus]
Party
Not this (Party, party)
Not this (Party, party)
Not this (Party, party)
(Party, party)
Not this (Party, party)
Not this (Party, party)
Not this (Party, party)
(Party, party)
[Bridge]
What happened after the accident
My whole concept of rhythm shifted
I’m over the anger of not being on their hit-list
What happened after the accident
My whole rhythm of concept shifted
She’s in the bedroom with him and there’s no party
[Chorus]
There’s no (Party, party)
There’s no (Party, party)
There’s no (Party, party)
Party, party
There’s no (Party, party)
There’s no (Party, party)
There’s no (Party, party)
(Party, party)
[Outro]
Party, party, party, party

Firstly let us clear one thing up, this song is not anti-ANC it rather speaks to the ideals of the liberation movement and asks if this is what we fought for. Being anti-ANC is so 1998 and we try our best to not be stuck on the Groundhog day antics of celebrating youth culture and the lack of evolut...
