[Verse 1]
Did we ever meet in Zanzibar?
Two Caucasians at the town bazaar
Are you who you say you are?
Did you offer me a Dutch cigar?
You must have thought you were so bourgeois
Are you who you say you are?
[Chorus 1]
After all these years, you haven't changed at all
But I can't say you look the same
Summer days are hot in Zanzibar
And at night the sky is filled with stars
Listen, you can hear guitars
[Verse 2]
Native people, skins as black as tar
Wear bright-coloured robes in Zanzibar
They've never even heard of ska
On a guided tour of limestone caves
Did we see where the traders kept their slaves?
Was that how we spent the day?
[Chorus 2]
After all these years, you haven't changed at all
But I can't say you look the same
I have never been to Zanzibar
I have always thought it was too far
You're not who you say you are
[Outro]
You're not who you say you are, oh
You're not who you say you are
