Take Me Back To The Days Of Daddy And Mummy,
Days Of Computer Socks, When We Still Use Salts To Kill EarthWorms.
Days Of Shuku, Koroba, Patewo And Panumo.
Pako Biscuit Was My Favorite, I Will Never Forget The Coloured Ice Block.
.
Bata Sandal I Love Best, Eleganza Pen Was The Best.
Days Of Limca Soft Drinks And Choco Milo Advert.
When NTA Will Show Rainbow Color For 30 Minutes, Before They Resume Program.
.
I Miss The Days When We Went To School, Lined Up And Headmistress And Teachers Inspect Our Nails And Uniform And Then We Match To Our Classrooms.
When We Say "Leke Leke" Give Me White Finger.
The Days Of Sakobi The Snake Girl, When Edet Still Lives In Calabar.
.
Days When We Used To Build Houses With Sand,
Days When We Used To Fly Kite On Streets, When Boys Used To Use The Paint Bucket Cover As Tire And Their Daddy's Hanger As The Steering.
.
Days When We Used To Drink Water From The Tap, Suck Out The Water If Its Not Coming Out.
When One Naira Coin Was Still Money,
Days of Nasco Biscuit And Trebor,
When Groundnut Was 5 Kobo And Choco Milo Sweet Was 25 Kobo
.
Iced Colored Water Tied In Nylon We Called It "Lolly".
Days Of Messing Game, Police And Thief, Who Is In The Garden
Have Missed Suwe Game, Tinco Tinco, Change Your Style, Ten Ten, Skipping.
Nneka The Pretty Serpent, Mr Salami & Mrs Salami.
.
Those Days When Rubber Band Was Stock Exchange,
When Votron, Jumbo, Power Rangers, Spider Man Was Our Favourite Cartoons
Days When We Are Only Allowed To Watch Black And White TV On Sundays.
.
Days When We All Sing Sandalili, Sandalili Songs.
Those Days Are No More,
Ali Is Now A Banker, He Is No More A Boy.
Even Edet No More Lives In Calabar, He Is Now Based In Potharcot.
