• Lagos Slums

Lagos Slums
he's had bicycles and sons
he's had salted fish and dark rum
now his days are almost done
in the lagos slums

he was a farmer for a while
growin' plantains by the coastline
and some said he had a smile
like a movie star

la ah la ah ah ah

(he) met his wife one friday night
at a dance hall near the train tracks
and his heart soared like a kite
in the evening light

(he) worked the oil fields once
saved some money for his family
built a house near eden's point
where they raised their boys

la ah la ah ah ah

he says it's hard to be a man
who works and still can't feed his children
but he does the best he can
in the new world plan

we're all forgotten
this road leads nowhere
