I heard this song for the first time, and I kept hearing

My lover’s got no money, he’s got his thrombolyse

Turns out it was "strong beliefs", and not a medical term

I love that lyric, it's so supid.

I know that I must do what's right, sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti.

Mount Olympus (assuming we're talking the one in Greece and not the one on Mars) is like 3,000 feet tall, Kilimanjaro is 7,000 feet tall. Kilimanjaro would put Olympus to shame, except Olympus is whiter than Kilimanjaro.

Also, you can't see Kilimanjaro from the Serengeti. There's a small area where the summit is above the horizon but the air is too hazy.

    Even more reason why it should have been a lepress!

    Also, if he knows he must do what’s right “as sure as Kilimanjaro rises… above the Serengetil”, and it doesn’t, I guess that means that he must not do what’s right? Or only a little bit, and it’s a bit hazy… 😋

    Thanks for the great info!
