    I know the song thanks.

    The point is everyone knows it, that’s why the joke lands. So saying “I blessed the rains” is enough that they’ll piece it together. Trust the audience a bit > saying Aafrica twice

      i get what you mean.

      “Have you forgotten what happened down in Aafrika?”

      “I blessed the rain”

      would have been a better punchline, but it’s still really good
