Four.One.Nine
Local Nigerian woman speaking in pidgin:
419. The Criminal Code
Fraudulent people
People you cannot trust
We're starting ... to see ... exactly how they operate
They lie, they cheat. All for what. In the name of Four.One.Nine
Hook:
Four.One.Nine (repeats 4x before verse drops in)
Nigerian Woman:
Somi come! Come on, come, come!
Somi, listen! Listen, listen, hear them!!
Four One Niners. Eh! Imagine! Imagine the story. Eh!!! You don't believe that!
Verse:
I won't open up heart
Too much wider
No fairy tales, no expectations
So you can decide to slide
And I won't have to pick up the pieces
And you can carry on carryin' on
Chorus:
And I won't have to pick up the pieces
And you can carry on carryin' on
Nigerian Woman:
What did he say?
What did he say?!?
It's a lie
Anything he says, is a lie
They come with their big English ... on you
Verse:
I won't ask you where you've been
Or why you forgot to call
No poetry or songs about you
No sleepless nights wondering if I lost you
You'll have to break my arm before you break my heart
You'll have to break my arm before you break my heart
Chorus:
And I won't have to pick up the pieces
And you can carry on carryin' on
And I won't have to pick up the pieces
And you can carry on carryin' on
Hook/Break:
Four... One... Nine. (repeats)
Be who and what we be
Be who and what we be
Nigerian Woman:
Speak English!
The first time
I know them, I know them, I know them, I'm telling you, I know them. Four One Niners
Unbelievable (echoes into a fade)
Hook/Break:
Four... One... Nine. (repeats)
