Verse 1
I believe in money, I need some money
I have to be able to feed myself from this occupation
Singing is my occupation from my father’s generation
My uncle is a welder but not in Julius Berger
Oga mei V boot, oga mai Honda, wetin become to hardi
I need that money, give me that money
Before I lose my temper
Come and give the promise my people free education
And free medication, but no occupation
It is only sufferation that leads to my agg

Katupakase, anti lupiya ndaba ne gyetuvudde wala
Kyetulumiririrwa bitone mwekyo mwe bwtuyimbira ubayimbire ebizimba

Tudaaga na dunia, nga tuzaaye amabujje gaffe tegabulwa obutuuliro
Baganda bange tukole namanyi tukolwe obutaweera ebyokunyooma emirimu bya kileela
Tukole namanyi obutaweela ebyokunyoma emirimu byakileela

Efie nipa - idle minds and working hands

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

...Sounds on da ground and seens on the see-ins Almost every month, we hear about workers' strikes, people calling for increased wages, better terms of service, etc, etc. These calls come from the brains that make our economies tick - the doctors, the lecturers, the civil servants, etc. Granted, the cost of living in Ghana is high and the wages of the middle-class do not seem to allow for a good standard of living. However, what about the Ghanaians who have no jobs? And those who have jobs which do not necessarily exercise their brains but keep their hands busy? Have we stopped to think about what our idle minds are up to these days? This realization hit me when I was listening to Okomfo Kwaadee's 'Efie nipa' recently. It shouldn't surprise you to hear the lyrics of the voice of the streets which is increasingly becoming Okomfo Kwaadee's tag.
