Sugarcane Waist lyrics
Verse 1
Generator hum, orange light for the stall
Sugarcane peel curling, watch it drop and fall
You dey bite the stick, juice run for your chin
Waist beads dey knock under your ankara skin
Night market sweet, pepper soup for the air
Your laugh carry far, I no fit stay there
Come closer small, make I taste the shine
Sugar for your mouth, sugar down your spine
Pre-Chorus
So slow, so slow, why you dey waka so slow
Every step you take, make the whole street glow
Tell me the secret, make I follow the sign
I got time, I got time
Chorus
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweet the way you move, nothing to waste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Bend like the stalk, keep your own pace
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Juice on your lip, put am for my taste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweetest thing wey dey this whole place
Verse 2
Lace wrapper tied low, moonlight for your hip
Waist beads dey answer every small step you skip
Kerosene lamp flicker, shadow on the wall
You dey peel the cane, I dey watch it all
Your finger sticky sweet, you offer me a bite
I taste your sugar and the whole sky feel light
Cricket dey sing but I no hear the sound
Only your waist wey dey turn me round and round
Pre-Chorus
So slow, so slow, why you dey waka so slow
Every step you take, make the whole street glow
Tell me the secret, make I follow the sign
I got time, I got time
Chorus
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweet the way you move, nothing to waste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Bend like the stalk, keep your own pace
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Juice on your lip, put am for my taste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweetest thing wey dey this whole place
Bridge
Forget the market, forget the noise
Just your waist and the quiet it enjoys
Hold my hand, make the sugar melt slow
Nowhere sweet like the place we go
Chorus
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweet the way you move, nothing to waste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Bend like the stalk, keep your own pace
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Juice on your lip, put am for my taste
Sugarcane waist, sugarcane waist
Sweetest thing wey dey this whole place
