While dem fighting fuh power, dem oil company pumping out we oil and smiling all de way to de bank.
Dem gat ah man named Kuff-Man. De man is an expert on how fuh manage oil wealth. He seh de deal wha we sign is not in we best interest. De man know wha he talking. He seh if we want we pickney and dem pickney fuh benefit, we gat fuh ensure far mo transparency by changing we petroleum laws. De man seh de guvment gat to do tings mo in de open rather dan in secret. And dem gat to do de right ting.
