KITTIWAKE
CH: Kittiwake, kittiwake Naija. 2ce
Old man na snake
Young man na fake
Looking for what to rake
CH: Kittiwake...Naija. 2ce
Overtake all overtake
My people awake
Make no mistake
The blows not for our sake
The reason for this quake
Is just the biggest cake
CH: Kittiwake... Naija. 2ce
Overtake all overtake
Waterman for shortcake
Rockman for cheesecake
Water or rock for pancake
Tribe is just the mandrake
Awake, my people, awake
CH: Kittiwake...Naija 2ce
Before, before na handshake
Now e kom be headshake
The headache na the hotcake
Earthquake,Seaquake, Skyquake
Wetin sef no go quake?

Pale turned the bow that
blest the sky
all that was blue at dusk...
did fly,
my mind is blurred and
now I cry:
the mud is dry, the mud is
dry.
Hope was lost within isles
and hills
the water splatters on me
hot chills
felt in a rush, craving
pleasure pills:
my passion distils, my
passion distils.
In this cruise, I seek but a
lake,
to be cocooned like
hotcake,
yet not sure of what is at
stake;
give me a brake, give me a
brake.
The dawn threw in a bait,
now I see
my heart was hooked by a
bee;
sweetness exhaled, bitter
spree
under the tree, under the
tree.
