Spoof and Lyrics Volume 1

Morning peeps, hope you night was splendid and the traffic this morning to work was light? Getting topics to blog about is actually now becoming a challenge so if you have topics that you think I can blog on, feel free to drop in the comments section. Don’t worry, you don’t need to write, I’ll do that with the research.

Today’s blog, Spoof and Lyrics is kinda like a pet project I have been writing about now. If you read Bubbles magazine regularly, then you are bound to be familiar with a column called Da Nizzle’s Korna. Basically I take hit songs out there and spoof the lyrics, giving my own spin of things and ridiculing the song. So far, so good, the artistes of these songs have not put a bounty on my head yet or threatened to beat me so I guess I am in the clear, at least for now.

Sit tight, relax, minimize your screen so your boss won’t catch you reading and if you are a student in class, make sure your lecturer is none-the-wiser...

Song Title: I Done Did It (Download)

Artiste: Eva

Lyrics: The silly things you thinking of doing, I done did it.

Spoof: I like Eva. I believe she is poised to knock all the present Femcees in the game off their perch. She has this realness about her somewhat like Eve. But then, won’t go into that, artistes absolutely hate to be compared with others. Eva’s hot single I done did it was a solid statement of take-over intent but then when she brags that she has done all the silly things we are thinking, I took umbrage. I know one silly thing she can never do. Get on the stage during a major award ceremony and fart into the microphone. Nuff said.

Song Title: Alabukun (Download)

Artiste: Lynxx featuring Banky W

Lyrics:I can be your everything girl, let me be your medicine girl-Alabukun,Alabukun...

Spoof:Lynxx decided to go with Mr Mushy-Mush a.k.a Banky W on this one. Yeah,yeah,yeah, two supposedly sexy guys trying to woo a girl and stuff but of all the drugs in the world, must it be ALABUKUN!!! Whatever happened to other drugs that sound pleasing to the ear like Actifed, Maloxine??? I use Alabukun to get off my high and clear my head when clubbing for crissakes. Let me be your Alabukun is very corny-I tell you.

Song Title: Salute (Download)

Artiste: Shank

Lyrics:You dey make my soldier salute and I don’t really know what to do...

Spoof:A great comeback song by Shank. He reminded us why he ruled the airwaves with Julie a while back. This song proved he has got his mojo back or so I thought. When you say, a girl is making your soldier salute and you don’t know what to do then it is a very unfortunate situation indeed. How about sweet-talking the girl in question to play with your soldier, how about playing with your own soldier. Jeez! The possibilities are limitless. Get a clue, brother!

Song Title: Shanor (Download)

Artiste: Skuki

Lyrics:Somebody say, I dey craze(x2), I dey mad, we dey mad, I wowo(2), We wowo...

Spoof: Skuki. Ok, this song is supposed to follow in the footstep of your earlier hot singles. No qualms, but then don’t go out there wailing that you are mad and crazy and then trying to get us to do the same all in the name of music. The whole song is like a praise and worship song for Yaba-Left inhabitants. If the pair of you wanna be mad,crazy,loony then be my guest. Thank God, you guys finally admitted that you wowo, makes life better for us all.

Song Title: Run the World (Download)

Artiste: Beyonce

Lyrics:Who runs the world-Girls

Spoof: Mrs Girl Power, Miss Independent. Mrs Run-the-World. Down the years, Beyonce has made a useful habit of releasing singles bordering on girl power and making shitload of cash out of it. Here is another following the trend. I have a message for Mrs Carter Knowles- Who runs the World-Girls but Who runs the Girls-Boys. ‘Axe’ Jay-Z.

Song Title: Don't Dull (Download)

Artiste: Wizkid

Lyrics: Axe your Mummy,Axe your daddy,awon leyi wan bad gan.... Don’t let your mother know,Don’t let your father know...

Spoof: Wizkid!!!! Our own Justin Bieber. Mr.Wellington has hit jackpot with this guy, I tell you. His launch was super; the chics were mental screaming his name and all. During his album launch at Eko and Suites, I used the opportunity to cup some feels off females who were so caught up in ‘Wizkid Euphoria’. But wait! Didn’t the producers in the studio hear when Wiz was continuously saying ‘Axe’ instead of ‘Ask’? Are we supposed to kill our parents because of Wizkid’s lyrics? He further confuses us. After saying we should ask our mummy and daddy how bad he is, he later says, we shouldn’t let them know. So, what are we supposed to do now? I am deeply confused.
