This song is dedicated to a musical legend, Ras Kimono,
may your soul rest in perfect peace
[Verse 1]
Oh oh, see them crying, police are shooting innocent people
Oh oh, see them looting our country money yeah, take it to overseas
A lot of killing inna me country, oh what a pity inna me city
Give us little sugar inna we tea, that is not too much
Give us little sugar inna we tea, yea yea yea, we no want no gbege
Give us little sugar inna we tea eh, we don’t want bread oh oh
Give us little sugar inna we tea please and that would be okay
The smoke of generator’s killing my people and our water be smelling Sh!t
[Chorus]
Where is the love? where is the love? tell me, where is the love?
Where is the love? where is the love?
[Verse 2]
I say give us little sugar inna we tea, we don’t want no bread oh
Give us little sugar inna we tea please, we no go complain o
Dem say Fela don sing am before before, won ni ki la tunma ko fun won ti wa fi gbo
Poor man dey hustle wetin wife and pikin go chop
Salary no fit solve all the bukata at once
Bagging the first class still you no fit get good job
Each and every day our crude oil dey fall oh
(?)
[Chorus]
Where is the love? where is the love? tell me, where is the love?
Where is the love? where is the love?
[Verse 3]
Under pressure, Nigeria is under pressure, Under pressure, my country is under pressure
Under pressure, my people is under pressure, Under pressure, our government is under pressure (Me tell you)
There’s no food in our pikin belly, too much fighting and problem in our National Assembly
Because some money disappear with no traces
Them say Fela don sing am before before, won ni ki la tun na ko fun wan ti wan le gba o
One man Dey hustle and em salary no dey come
As this country Dey go omo ko ye mi mo o
