    It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you
    There's nothing that a hundred men or more could
    ever do
    I left the rains down in Africa
    Gonna take some time to do the things we never
    have

    The wild dogs cry out in the night

    Artist: Toto
    Song: Africa
    Real Lyric: It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never have The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

    The story:

    Wow, I never once thought about what I was singing
    until I saw "I left my brains down in Africa" and
    wondered exactly what the lyrics are.

    "rises like a lepress?" Kilimanjaro is like a
    rising leper? Who, that's not right! Anyway "left
    the rains down in Africa" sounds fine though as it
    comes after "It's gonna take a lot to take me away
    from you"

    which I thought meant he was leaving and missing
    it and the rain.
