NOTE: Meaning of illegal is very simple; it means ‘not moral; not allowed; not legal; against the law’. The song is more about, telling people that smoking is bad, drinking is bad, fornication is bad; yet the doers of all these things would not stop. The irony of the song, to me, is that, although the two singers (Olamide and Pepenazi) plainly said, in the chorus and hook, that these things are illegal, yet they endorse them, in the overall theme of the song….lol. But, who am I to judge?…Pepenazi already said ‘if you’re getting it, getting it, getting it…then you’re clever’. We’re all about entertainment here; please don’t forget!

(VERSE 1- PEPENAZI)
On your mark, you wan to when
Tell me the things she wan do when
If na sayo, we be bottle mehn
‘Tell me them say’ we be boys II men
Haa! Ma lo wa oh, illegal
: – dont dare approach oh; illegal
Mo gb’awon temi sori, bi ti medal
: I’m passionate about my people, like that of medal
We are supporting Mayweather
simply because that dey say it is illegal
Over calcu, is the second wife of Lot
and why I go look back? Never!
If you are getting it, getting it, getting it, getting it
and then you are clever, clever
So, there shall be showers of blessing
Showers of blessing rain on me; iya e!
: – – – – – – – – – – ; your mother!
