I'Ll Be Obidient and Yusful
Nigeria has become like a ware in a jumble sale
Or I'd say a boat that's in need of a bail
A nation that once kept abreast of great countries with aplomb
Is now sitting wobbly on a ticking time bomb
Sadly the managers of this great estate
Know nothing about being persons of estate
With their lack of concern that makes them look like bullock
They overwhelm the masses that voted them in with a feeling of shock
Their daily disconcertion put my kind in a total disbelief
That a population in hundreds of million can't provide any to effect a relief
This is why I join the mission to effect a revamp
Enough is enough to our crestfallenness and damp
You must have heard in their campaign they mock our labour
Cos they believe they can spirit away our votes like an abductor
There're coordinated actions with rallies everywhere to promote adduction
In order to prevent or sensitize the public against ballot abduction
My advice to those youths like software infected with malware
The kinds the politicians pay to cause unnecessary despair
Those punctured with holes that can't make them gain control
I say beware in the end you'll be left to thole
Please don't be like a bull in a China shop
Together we can make Nigeria sit on hilltop
As for me I'll be OBIdient and YUSful
Cos I want to live in a Nigeria that's beautiful
