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

Or the pink flamingos are intertwined

As the stars come out to play

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)

You better watch your step 'cause the path is steep

You better hold your breath 'cause the water's deep

It's a long way down over Lovers' Leap

But falling's half the fun!

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

You can beat the bush like there's no tomorrow

From Tanganyika to Kilimanjaro

But you'll find Upendi wherever you are

Oh, underneath the sun (sun)

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
