VERSE 1:
This is the black sheep of the family
Finger in the mouth, this is regret
The bean cake(akara) has scattered in the oil, what a problem
The wind has blown, behold the chicken's butt
The cock crows after the Yam roaster
The termite eats out it's own eye and covered in blood
The Bata(a drum) is resounding, a sound of riot
The hunter is disappointed
Sigidi(moulded doll) that is deceiving itself
Wants to be taken to the river
It's too late
It's over
The hunter is disappointed
CHORUS :
When my time to dance came
The drummer took the drum away
When my time to dance came
My backup let me down
When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid (baby goat)
Look at how I turned out
VERSE 2:
The masquerade that dances first
Becomes a spectator
Every day for the thief, one day for the owner
When man has had his fill
He starts looking for a belly slicer
Not knowing that there is more to be seen
He didn't see it
"It is me, no one like me"
Kudos, the powerful one with no thinking, chief of the lazy
If only man had deep thinking, he would tread softly.
CHORUS
When my time to dance came
The drummer took the drum away
When my time to dance came
My Apala (a genre of music) singer refused
When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid
Look at how I turned out
VERSE 3:
Repercussion is busy cooking
It's pounding yam, succulent pounded yam
Please! Please!, this pounded yam of karma prepared,
Who will eat it?
The coat of embarrassment hung on the roof
It has fallen, no answer to the utterance
Full to the brim
The rain of embarrassment is about to start.
CHORUS
Bro you're so good I must meet you very soon
Wow
Nice one❤❤❤❤❤
