“Low Volume” lyrics

Keep am for low volume
Low volume
The stereo dey whisper for the corner
For the corner
Candle short but e go last
E go last
Low volume till the day break

The neighbours wall thin like paper
So we don learn the quiet art
Your laugh come out as shoulder shake
My jokes deliver for your ear
The stereo dey play the old ones
Songs wey sabi behave
Your bracelet sleep on the table
So e no go make announcement

Talk am for my ear
Make the words waka soft
The wall no go hear
Wetin no reach the door

Keep am for low volume
Low volume
The stereo dey whisper for the corner
For the corner
Candle short but e go last
E go last
Low volume till the day break

Mmm, mmm
Till the day break
Mmm, mmm
Till the day break

You dance with half your body
The other half dey respect the floor
Wooden floor wey dey report movement
To the landlord wey dey below
We slow till we almost still
Na the loudest we been ever be
The candle bend our shadows
Into one shape on the wall

Bracelet quiet on the wood
One shadow-shape on the wall
The stereo don reach the last track
E dey ask if we still dey
We dey, softly, we dey

Keep am for low volume
Low volume
The stereo dey whisper for the corner
For the corner
Candle short but e go last
E go last
Low volume till the day break
Till the day break

One shadow-shape
Low volume
