Build it up with Nkandla money,
Nkandla money, Nkandla money,
Build it up with Nkandla money,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Nkandla Money was washed away,
Washed away, washed away,
Nkandla Money was washed away,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Build it up with E-Toll Money,
E-Toll Money, E-Toll Money,
Build it up with E-Toll Money,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
E Toll Gantries will not stay,
Will not stay, will not stay,
E Toll Gantries will not stay,
Oh Jacob Zuma.

Nuclear Budget, Nuclear Budget,
Build it up the Nuclear Budget,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Nuclear Budget will be Rushin' away,
Rushin' away, Rushin' away
Nuclear Budget will be Rushin' away,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Set a man to watch all night,
Watch all night, watch all night,
Set a man to watch all night,
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Suppose the man should steal the steel,
steal the steel, steal the steel,
Suppose the man steal the steel?
Oh Jacob Zuma.
 
Give him a RDP to make it right,
make it right, make it right,
Give him a RDP to make it right,
Oh Jacob Zuma.[2]
