One Thousand Naira
One thousand naira
For one thousand dreams
One thousand hopes
Punctured by one thousand spears
For one thousand naira
One thousand faces
Queued up in one thousand war-ds
For one thousand reasons
One thousand holes grace our thatch-full thatches
Where endless rain and peeping sun cuddle our tattered
mats
One thousands holes rest upon our busy roads
Where we trade and death raids
One thousand naira
For another thousand pains?
Or
One thousand changes?
They've paid
We've bought
