Where to start? Kilimanjaro doesn’t rise above the Serengeti. You can't even ''see'' it from the Serengeti, unless you get in a hot air balloon and take a telescope - They're about 300km from each other. Mount Olympus ''definitely'' doesn't rose above the Serengeti. It’s in Greece. To the extent you could say that something that has just sat there for millions of years, does anything as energetic as "rising", then Kilimanjaro doesn’t rise ''like'' Olympus either.  They don’t look anything like each other.

I know that I must do what’s right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti[1]

Kilimanjaro rising like itself above the Tsavo.
Olympus, rising like Olympus, above - I don't know - Thessaloniki or something.

Where to start? Kilimanjaro doesn’t rise above the Serengeti. You can't even see it from the Serengeti, unless you get in a hot air balloon and take a telescope - They're about 300km from each other. Mount Olympus definitely doesn't rose above the Serengeti. It’s in Greece. To the extent you could say that something that has just sat there for millions of years, does anything as energetic as "rising", then Kilimanjaro doesn’t rise like Olympus either.

Plus, they don’t look anything like each other. I mean, look.

And we haven't even got onto the fact that the line doesn’t scan.

  1. Toto, Africa, allegedly by David Paich (well: no one else in Toto seems prepared to claim responsibility for it).
