lyrics

Chorus:
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori stori plenti
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori stori plenti
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀

Verse 1:
Promises and lies and deceit
There’s so much weeping ‘n’ wailing and gnashing of teeth
There ain’t no work but there’re mouths to feed
You say the future’s bright but it’s all looking bleak
You look me in the eye, slap me with your greed
Saying change’s gonna come if I truly believe
So I keep on hoping, bleeding in need

Chorus:
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori stori plenti
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori story plenti
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀

Verse 2:
Promises rotting at our feet
Wading through the dead who are we destined to meet
There’s only so much they can take before the people break
There’s only so much you can tell before the truth will tell
What has been put in darkness will surely find light
Illuminate the anger, ignite the fight
Illuminate the anger, ignite the fight

Chorus:
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori stori plenti
Stori, stori plenti
Stori, stori story plenti
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀
Ọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀ nínú ìwé kọ́bọ̀

Verse 3:
Fellow countrymen and women
There is no need to panic
There is no cause for alarm
We are on top of the matter
We promise you free health care (Free)
Free education (Free)
Free fuel for all (Free)

Outro:
Àlọ́ Àlọ́ o
Dem go dey lie, dey talk, dey lie lie dey go (x4)
Àlọ́ Àlọ́ o
Dem go dey talk, dey talk, dey lie lie dey go- Àlọ́ Àlọ́ o (x3)
Dem go dey talk, dey talk, dey lie lie dey go
