Chorus:
Anansi – he is a spider, Anansi – he is a man
Anansi – he is a lazy one, do little as he can
Yeah, do little as he can
Anansi has a mango tree, he loves the fruit so ripe
He cannot reach the mangos but he longs to have a bite
(chorus)
So – Anansi tells his friend the crow, “You’re beautiful
to me.”
Old crow calls her friends so they can hear his flattery
The crows fly to the mango tree, they bend the
branches down
Anansi watch them swing and sway and mango hit
the ground
Anansi – he is a spider, Anansi – he is a man
Anansi – he is a clever one, he always have a plan
(chorus)
