Thieves!

Thieves! Thieves!!
Oju ole ree oo
we've seen the face of the thief

Wealth and health stored abroad
All stuffed together, buried in one corner
Leftover stuffed in tummies and cheeks
Head buried in official car boots, with the ac boiling there head
Or is it the heater cooling there freezed end

From Agbado to America; Lagos to London
Rowing in queue, bending like Q
Failed to honour agreement made with the varsity teachers
Which birthed the umpteen strike
Not even made by the best strikers,

................................

Then it was a cat that nibbles currency
Now it a snakes that swallows billions
I wonder the fate of cryptocurrency
Soon it would be the cockroach eating trillions

Rotund cheeks jellies, potted belly with berries
They come in vessels, go with ressles
To and fro in yatchs and ferries
Stuffed up with the country treasure
Oh there wealth as bodija dump!

On our flesh they feast
Their shuttered steps muffled first
Neck hardly visible at all
They swindle like its pendulum in hall

Rapers, Reapers, Rappers
Raping us off our integrity
Reaping us off our first fruit
Rapping and ranting vain talks.

I want to blow a whistle
Yes! I need the trumpeter's trumpet
Or should I wait for the sound of the trumpet?
When the trumpet shall sound...
Thieves!
