I saw a dead man In Oshodi He was lying on the street dead Yet nobody cared His body was decaying His eyes were budging Yet nobody cared
The lawyers passed by The soldiers walked by The policemen passed by The traders strolled by Yet nobody cared
The politicians passed by with sirens The clergy men passed by too The kids were too scared to look The ladies wanted to puke
I saw a dead man I Oshodi Warms were dinning all over his body The dead man was help less Yet everybody cared less His corpse was stinking The maggots were dancing The flies were rejoicing
The professors passed by too It was there I saw it too He was dead Yet nobody cared
By night the vultures came And the dead man became their game Still nobody cared I saw a dead man I oshodi Yet nobody cared
