NNUKWU TE AJUJU - Chris 'n' John (POEM OF THE MONTH)
You said the king learnt a new song
that he sang at this octave
So amazing
so horridly amazing
It kindled terror unspeakable
Then you asked
Who will dance to this beat
I answered
Refrain:
Doh soh doh
nnukwu te ajuju
Doh Re Mi
I juru kam zaa
Doh Fah Mi Re
I jugbuem o
Doh Mi Re Doh
M ga-azalata
I can't sing
I can't even dance
You said the house cat laid an egg
the cock was asked to fetch the hen
So, who will ask the cat
Why it laid an egg?
Refrain
You kindled the flame
you roasted the yam
the oil has got a taste
