[Verse 3: Captain Planet]
Somebody be somebody
You no go fit tell me say me I no be anybody
If your body pass my body
The day you go die dem go call me and you dead body
No matter how you be bibini or broni
You be zombie or sebi you be tsoobi
The madman you dey see get family
Kaya yos all dem get some dignity
And the julɔ boy too get mentality
Don't laugh o, jooe, this be calamity
We be kings and queens from our villages
But I don't know how I turn rapatology
E be my destiny make you no disrespect me
Ah, ah, ah
Kaa na lɛ ni odwɛn nokooo!
