"Noise For Vendor Mouth" lyrics - FELA KUTI

You no know me before abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Dem no know you before abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Him no know you before. I be a de lie (You no lie)
Dem no know we before abi how dey lie (You no lie)

Dem say we be hooligans, we no talk, we no answer
Dem go call us ruffians, we no talk, we no answer
Dem go call us hemp smokers, we no talk, we no answer
Dem go call us prostitutes, we no talk, we no answer

We dey work oooo, we no talk, we no answer
We dey work very hard oooo, we no talk, we no answer

Now we go answer, now we go talk oooo
Now we go talk oooo, now we go answer

The big big men dey fight, Who I be? Who are you?
The VIP sef dey fight. Who I be? Who are you?
The parliamentarians dey fight. Who I be? Who are you?
Dem break chair, dem break window. Who I be? Who are you?

Now we go answer, now we go talk oooo
Now we go talk oooo, now we go answer

Ariwo ariwo
Ariwo ariwo

I say noise for vendor mouth
I say noise for vendor mouth

Him vendori woooo
Him vendori woooo

Dem no know we before abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Abi how dey lie (You no lie)
Abi how dey lie (You no lie)
