Fela’s lyrics always cut to the bone.

“Do you know? See, I go London to study 21 years ago. I be student for London 21 years ago. English man go dey take stylie-stylie dey touch my nyash. English man go dey take cunny cunny, dey feel my nyash. Why, why, why? Why English man dey like to touch my nyash very, very, very well? Dem dey like to touch my nyash and my back very, very, very well. Do you know? Ignorance, that is the reason. Dem say I get tail, like monkey tail. You see what I mean? Ignorant action, built on wrong education, wrong information. White supremacy, built on ignorance. Western civilization, built on ignorance. Dem say I get tail, like monkey tail. Wrong information. Now, enlightenment na him we dey now.”
