Dem come fish our water empty,
Dem come chop our oil plenty,
Come take resources away,
Come take all our riches
Dem come use us as dem store
For raw material to make them rich
Oh brother, brother, bross wetin
Sister, sister, sis
Chorus 2x
Wetin we dey do the the the
Wetin we dey do dem thief thief
Where we dey wen dem own own us
What we sow na I we go reap
Tell me wetin I go do
Cos I dey loss in the sins in the flesh of the world
Lord, forgive wouldn't save my soul from dying
Kai, oga suffri oh, oga suffri oh, oga suffri oh,

Oh but right now I no go take am no more
I go open my mouth go tell u wetin I dey feel
Chorus 2x
Wetin we dey do the the the
Wetin we dey do dem thief thief
Where we dey wen dem own own us

See, tell me, see wen we notice, see wetin dem do us
Where dem come take us, dem take us go iyunda,
Use as dem slave
Choir
Wetin we do dem
Wetin dem do us
