Agonizing free fall:
From #75 to $1 in the seventies to #480 to $1 as at today!
Then "tortoise car" went for mere #500;whites trooped in droves
Now, whites detest coming on visits:
Just like a new garment that has faded away
Time was when #1 could buy an elephant 'nd much more!
Tell it not to current generation of Nigerian youths
Re-echo it not in town square in the midst of youths-lest they will be incensed with anger for decades of willful profligacy
Publish it not in streets of London lest they will mock our independent status in derision-still tied to the apron string of Lion Jack
Millions earger to flee to Yankee for survival through arid desert 'nd sharks infested Ocean
Out of gross managerial ineplitude; we've defaced our flag 'nd anthem hollow.
