D’banj – Oliver Twist Lyrics

African

I have a confession
Don't take it personal
I have a confession so you got to listen
I have a confession
Don't take it personal
See I like Beyonce, but she dey with Jigga
I like Nikki, her yansh is bigger
I like Rihanna, she dey make me day go gaga
I like Omotola cos people like her
I like Genevieve cos I think that she's so sweet
And Nadia Buhari
Cos she no dey drink garri
It's not her fault you know
You cannot blame me though
I wanna have them all
I know it but the truth is that
I am just an Oliver
Oliver Oliver Oliver Twist
Just an Oliver
Oliver Oliver Oliver Twist
You're just an Oliver
Oliver Oliver Oliver Twist
I'm just an Oliver
Oliver Oliver Oliver Twist
Rebete rebete rebete
Labata labata labata
Sebede sebede sebede
Rebete rebete rebete
You got a secret but I think I know it
You want to let it out but them go call you ashy
You like to do it
Do the hmm hmmm hmmm
I know you like D'banj
And you like Don Jazzy
You like 2baba
And you like Fally Pupa
And I know you love Trey Songz
But you no fit sing his songs
I thought as much you know
I do not blame you though
You wanna have them all
You know it's wrong
But the truth is that
You're just an Oliver
Oliver Oliver Oliver Twist
Just an Oliver

You're just an Oliver
