[Intro]
Obele! Nshogbu! Obele and Nshogbu! Eh-heh! Troublemakers are coming again! Run, run, everybody run!
[Verse 1]
Early in the morning, trouble don start,
Obele dey run, Nshogbu dey laugh,
Mama dey shout, “What have you done?”
Before you know it, everybody run!
They enter here, they enter there,
Nobody knows where they will appear,
One little problem becomes a big one,
Obele and Nshogbu — here they come!
[Chorus]
Obele! Obele!
Nshogbu! Nshogbu!
Obele and Nshogbu,
Village rascals, troublemakers!
Obele! Obele!
Nshogbu! Nshogbu!
Wherever they go, wahala follows,
Village rascals are here again!
[Verse 2]
Morning blows the whistle, the chaos grows,
They juggle mischief with big bright shows,
Kids are giggling, parents shake heads,
Every corner echoes with bouncing misreads.
[Chorus]
Obele! Obele!
Nshogbu! Nshogbu!
Obele and Nshogbu,
Village rascals, troublemakers!
People are running, people are shouting,
Everybody asking, “Who started this?”
Obele!
Nshogbu!
Na these two boys again!
[Bridge]
If you see them coming, ooh the warnings rise,
Dust in the air and sparkle in their eyes,
But somehow the street keeps a playful beat,
Two little mischiefs turning noise to heat.
[Chorus]
Obele! Obele!
Nshogbu! Nshogbu!
Obele and Nshogbu,
Village rascals, troublemakers!
Obele! Obele!
Nshogbu! Nshogbu!
Wherever they go, wahala follows,
Village rascals are here again!
[Outro]
Obele sine me bike!
Nshogbu, stop that thing!
Village rascals!
Troublemakers!
If you see them coming…
RUN!
VILLAGE RASCALS!
