The lyrics of Flavour's song "Shake" depict a celebration of the female body and its ability to move and dance in a captivating manner. The song opens with Flavour announcing his presence on the microphone and hinting at the type of woman who can "shake" it in a way that would distinguish her from the rest. He then encourages the woman to show off her moves, chanting "kpuchie jahee" and "show dem" in repeated phrases.
The chorus highlights the main theme of the song, which is to shake one's waist and hips with the support of the catchy phrase "shakie shakie ukwu" and the rhyming "akirikatampampa" which emphasizes the sense of rhythm and movement in the music. The verses repeat the same idea of appreciating the beauty and grace of the woman's body, with Flavour singing about her being fine, fresh, sweet and so fine. He then uses the expression "Ukwu sarambara n'adi m mma n'obi mu o" which in Igbo language translates to "Your waist is making me go crazy", showing the deep effect that the woman's dancing has on him.
Overall, the song is an upbeat and lively celebration of the female form and its ability to move and entertain.
