This year same troubles
Nothing has changed
A cue at our temporal sanctuary
Oozing from crude produce
Coupled with an unpleasant smell from various outlets.
I am ready to make a purchase
Make it available
If it's not
We will fight for it
On comes ALAGBADA
he needs the liquid
he ignores his voters signal
He asks FIJABI to get his barrel filled
FIJABI in his patterned clothes
Happy to impress his master
Happily flogs the voters
EVERYBODY OUT!! he shouts
In his hand is a dangling whip
Placing marks on disobedient folks
He buys his portion while we all fled
Shoulder high he bounces off
Our struggle continues
Might is right
First though, just get the fuel in
Something to show for invested hours.
No love from our unfriendly rulers
What is love in this region?
Frustration in all our speeches
Let's just get through the red and white vale.
References: ALAGBADA-This is a native word often used to represent the high-classed
FIJABI: A symbolic name for a slave
