Ehen! (wahala!)
Listen close, make I tell you story of the jar...
No dulling, look up!
Red ant dey, black ant dey inside one bottle
Living in peace, no wahala, no struggle
But one big hand come carry the glass
E shake am hard, e shake am fast
Now red dey bite black, black dey bite red
They forget the hand wey dey shake their head!
Omo, who dey shake the jar? (Who dey shake am?)
Who dey make us fight ourselves from afar? (Oga at the top!)
We dey fight our brother, we dey fight our sister
While the politician dey laugh, dey drink minister!
Open your eye, no be me be your enemy
No be me be your enemy, oya make we agree!
Dem divide us by tribe, dem divide us by church
While dem pack the money, leave us in the dirt
No NEPA light, no water, fuel scarcity hard
But we dey fight ourselves inside the yard
You dey look my face like say I be the oga?
Look up! Na dem dey shake the jar!
Omo, who dey shake the jar? (Who dey shake am?)
Who dey make us fight ourselves from afar? (Oga at the top!)
We dey fight our brother, we dey fight our sister
While the politician dey laugh, dey drink minister!
Open your eye, no be me be your enemy
No be me be your enemy, oya make we agree!
Ah-ah! No more mumu!
Drop the fight! Look up!
Look the hand wey dey shake the jar!
We are one! On God!
E don do!
