Wait in the gi col heart oh

Wait in the gi bring gladdee

Waiting for the make you able for the lek your enemy

Waiting for the make you able for the preach God he word

Waiting for the make you able overcome temptation

One hundred years today

You day showee you love

You word na like a lamp way day gi we light

We tell you tank oo papa God

We no say you get better plan for we

(Song in Creole)

Ping Pong Ball

Belinda 18.5.10

Batted from pillar to post

at the mercy of my host

Hit on side of the head

Batted about, batted about

do I count for owt?

Where will I land next?

I don't know

which way to go

Batted about, batted about

from pillar to post

at the mercy of my host

Hit against objects

not knowing where I will land

Cause and effect?

I don't know

No control – in the hands of the dealer

I am an inanimate object

that's what I am

I have no control

I am unable to shout 'stop'

I am delicate

like a precious bird's egg

but could easily be crushed

in a strong man's hand

As I am so delicate

why am I being treated with such force and brutality?

Why does my dealer yell in rapture when he deals me a blow?

Why does he leap in the air and 'put a spin on it'?

Is he getting gratification from this

I am hit against walls and hard surfaces

No dents or cracks to show

Give me a break – before I break
