The Effects of Gin
On Delta flight 723 on the way to Borneo ,
da air be so bumpy but headed there I go.
Little dids I know what be in store for me.
Had I knowed, on dis plane I wouldn’t be.
Had I jes knew dem native’s strange appetite,
den no way would I ha’ been on dis ‘er flight.
den no way would I ha’ been on dis ‘er flight.
No sooner there and to the jungle me set about,
soon to hear da native’s drums and scary shout.
With fright, them I see, ‘n turn about to flee,
but I’s too slow, dey dun catched up to me.
but I’s too slow, dey dun catched up to me.
Off with me head, the rest to the pot to boil,
with herbs, roots, seasons and cooking oil.
with herbs, roots, seasons and cooking oil.
But the tricks on them ‘cause they not knew
of me how tough cooked, my meat to chew.
of me how tough cooked, my meat to chew.
When dey done start’a spit and begins to choke,
I teached em a lesson on cook’n an English bloke.
