On top of the road, on the side people they waka

Office worker, laborer worker, worker's worker
Them go dey waka, inside bus them go dey
Motorcycle them dey ride, plenty, plenty crowd
Inside this crowd, sometimes for one corner
Sometimes for one street, you go dey hear

Oh, yes, them go dey try, to try to make ends meet

I say turn your face small to the right wing
Oga patapata dey for there authority people dey for there
Instead of workers, we have officials, instead of buses
Them dey ride motorcar, instead of motorcycles
Na helicopter, instead of them waka

Authority man no dey pick-pocket

Na petty-cash him go dey steal
Armed robber him need gun
Authority man him need pen
Authority man in charge of money

Him no need gun, him need pen
Pen get power, gun no get
If gun steal eighty thousand naira
Pen go steal two billion naira
