Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a place where the crazy moon
Makes the monkeys sing
And the baboons swoon
And the sultry scent of the lotus bloom
Will carry you away
While the hippos swing
From the jungle vines
And the rhino rumba in a conga line
All the pink flamingos are intertwined
As the stars come out to play, uh
[Verse 2]
In Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two to make it true
Your heart will lead you there
In Upendi
In Upendi
[Verse 3]
You better watch your step
'Cause the path is steep
Better hold your breath
'Cause the water's deep
It's a long way down over Lover's Leap
But falling's half the fun
[Verse 4]
In Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two to make it true
Your heart will take you there
[Verse 5]
You can bet the bush like there's no tomorrow
From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro
But you'll find Upendi wherever you are
Oh, underneath the sun (Sun, sun)
[Verse 6]
In Upendi
Where the passion fruit grows sweet
And it's so divine
That you lose your mind
As it sweeps you off your feet
In Upendi
Without a worry or a care
It just takes two to make it true
Your heart will take you there
Upendi
[Verse 7]
Down in Upendi
Way down in Upendi
Down in Upendi
Way down in Upendi
Down in Upendi
Way down in Upendi
Down in Upendi
Way down in Upendi (In Upendi)
(In Upendi, in Upendi)
Down In Upendi (In Upendi)
Way down In Upendi
(In Upendi, in Upendi)
(In Upendi, in Upendi)
