Shaykh Life is Vanity don buy Lexus
Now, na Ferrari and Bugatti e dey pray for
Though road rough
Him children get plenty car
Pastor Don’t Visit the Hospital is in India for treatment
His wife, a patient with hypertension, doesn’t seem to need his miracles
In fact, his children work in the health sector
They don’t need to follow what they preach
Àwọn kẹẹ?
Touch not my anointed is what their followers argue
Therefore, they are perfect
We, on the other hand, they say, are hopeless sinners
And whatever wrong they commit
Merely seems wrong to those of us who have something against them
Well, what do I know?
Make I just sit down dey look
Wàhálà mii ti pọju
Gbogbo ẹ ni mi o gbọ ye sha
