Ilé ayé

She is moving by remote control
Hands that move her are invisible
Sometimes a world has a load of questions
Seems like the world knows nothing at all
The world is near but it's out of reach
Some people touch it but they can't hold on
She is moving to describe the world
She has messages for everyone
She is moving by remote control 
Hands that move her are invisible

Hey
Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli
Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli
Zo yéli yéli
Zo yéli yéli
Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli

The world has a way of looking at people
Sometimes it seems that the world is wrong
She loves the world and all the people in it
She shakes them up when she start to walk
She's only partly human being
She defines the possibilities
Holding on for an eternity
Gone, ending without finishing

Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli
Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli
Zo yéli yéli
Zo yéli yéli
Tin guidi guidi guidi tingui tingui
Zo yéli yéli

The world moves on a woman's hips
The world moves and it swivels and bops
The world moves on a woman's hips
The world moves and it bounces and hops
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna hold it, move it
Hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it and move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She is moving to describe the world
She has messages for everyone
She is moving by remote control (remote control)
Hands that move her are invisible
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna hold it, move it
Hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it and move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
