Sand and Garri (Lessons from Haggai) Lyrics

Now, instead of rebuilding the temple, you're working on your own

That's the strategy for disaster

And don't say I didn't warn you

Lessons from Haggai

You be building your business, building your home

You be fixing up your mess, doing your own

You be telling them different on the telephone

You little liar, you little liar

You be stealing the money and chopping alone

You be sounding real funny like a dog with a bone

But we know you're a phony, all your money's gone

You little liar, you little liar

So you chop garri, but na sand e be

You plant egunsi, but na grass you see

And the wind don blow all your property

Oya pay your bill make we see

You be building your business, building your home

You be fixing up your mess, doing your own

You be telling them different on the telephone

You little liar, you little liar

You be stealing the money and chopping alone

You be sounding real funny like a dog with a bone

But we know you're a phony, all your money's gone

You little liar, you little liar

So now you chop garri, but na sand e be

You plant egunsi, but na grass you see

And the wind don blow all your property

Oya pay your bill make we see

You little liar, you little liar

That's what happens when you stop rebuilding

Your whole world's crumbling, won't you start rethinking

the line you've drawn

You be wearing designers, your vanity's shown

You be whistling (whoowhoo) and you're singing to tune

But the pack of cards falling, its the truth, you know

You little liar, you little liar

But you no go gree say na thief you be

And laziness na your philosophy

Kalu kalu don chop all your salary

And you get hole for the pocket of your khaki

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Start rebuilding the temple

You be liar and thief

Na true I dey see

No be say I dey beef

You be liar and thief, thief

Liar liar peck some fire
