“Conductor, No Call My Stop” lyrics

Carry me, danfo to the moon
(To the moon)
Conductor, no call my stop
(No call my stop)
Tonight my head dey lightweight
(Lightweight)
Danfo to the moon, drive soft

To the moon!
(Wooo!)
To the moon!
(Wooo!)

The contract sign this afternoon
My signature almost dance
First call na my mama number
She drop phone to go and shout
Now I dey the yellow danfo
Window seat, breeze for face
The driver dey play old Fela
Even the traffic dey feel like parade

Today I no dey count the fare
Give the change to the small boy
Today I no dey count the fare
Give the change to the small boy

Carry me, danfo to the moon
(To the moon)
Conductor, no call my stop
(No call my stop)
Tonight my head dey lightweight
(Lightweight)
Danfo to the moon, drive soft

We cross the long bridge by night
The lagoon dey wear the city light
One woman carry sleeping twins
I help her hold one shoulder
The conductor start to sing off-key
The whole bus join the wrong key
Strangers dey harmonise nonsense
Nonsense never sound so sweet

My stop don pass thirty minutes
I know, the conductor know
Him look me, him no call am
Him sabi say today special
Some nights you ride am to the end

Carry me, danfo to the moon
(To the moon)
Conductor, no call my stop
(No call my stop)
Tonight my head dey lightweight
(Lightweight)
Danfo to the moon, drive soft
(Drive soft!)

Wrong key, sweet key
Danfo to the moon
