Election Day from Election Day by Avit

I dey ask dem why…
E lef sey my people go start sell the sky
On too many levels we dey compromise
Dey print new money they can’t tell us why
I dey ask dem why…
You have the secretary but get the PA
One do the work, one do the BJ
But those who do the work you leave dem bleeding
When it comes to Election day I go ask you wetin you plan for me
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
You see the politician dey lie we teeee,
Dey chop our money like we just no dey
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
When it comes to Election day I go ask you wetin you plan for me
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
You see the politician dey lie we teeee,
Dey chop our money like we just no dey
Unless you show me
Unless you show me

Yh we just dey watch
Economic crisis go start to buss
Everything around you go too dey cost
Prominent people go start to loss
See we just dey watch
You see the crime rate skyrocketing of course
One man’s gain is another man’s loss
Soon we’d find out who is the boss

When it comes to Election day I go ask you wetin you do for me
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
You see the politician dey lie we teeee,
Dey chop our money like we just no dey
Unless you show me
Unless you show me

Cos the ting you do for show e no convince me
You dey lie to our faces instinctly
Believing your promises too riskyyy
Big man you dey hear…
If Nkrumah come see us today he go dey tear for eye
Cannot cross that motorway without no fear at night
We no get street light
But dem still collecting the tolls
From the Monday to Sunday
But my people no dey do fokko
From that Monday to Sunday
See the roads are still full of potholes
From that Monday to Sunday
Real bad man protected by popo
From that Monday to Sunday
Tak our girl dem go bu them condo
From that Monday to Sunday

But, when it comes to Election day I go ask you wetin you got for me
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
You see the politician dey lie we teeee,
Dey chop our money like we just no dey
Unless you show me
Unless you show me
And if you don’t know, if you don’t know
Now you know AV, Now you know AV
