THE CASTANET
‘Ko-ko-ko…….’
Ko-ko-ko…….
Yie-yie-yie-yie……
Yie-yie-yie-yie……
Yieyieeeeeeeee……….!!!’
These were the terrifying sounds of thunder that
painted the hills red in Legon
Up the hill we stood and charged
Down the hill our terrorizing yet scintillating sounds
descended
From the depth of our bellies flowed rivers of
inspirational melodies
From our lips erupted charged lava of charging tunes
Trumpeting and uplifting the morale of our inner men
With permission from Father Bacchus
We thronged our colonies downstream
Instilling fear and panic in their petrified bone
marrows
Never put the blame on us
Just blame the castanet
Out on the streets we went haywire
Marching in red while our admirers panted for breath
of excitement in awe
In G-strings and thongs
And in multi-coloured wigs and bare chests
We satisfied our musical libido from Volta Hall to
Legon Hall Annex B
Ooooh what a feeling it was!
A feeling which sends chills down the spine whenever
there is a flashback
A feeling Bill Gates, I.M.F, Sheik Mansour, Carlos
Slim, Roman Abramovich,
Aliko Dongote and Alhaji Asuma Banda, all combined can
never buy!
Oooooh my castanet!
What have thou done to me?
KO-KO-KO…..!
KO-KO-KO………!!
Wish I could carry on with my scripts
But it is unfortunate I have to rest my pen abruptly
My eardrums are receiving transmissions from a vibrating
castanet from afar
And my brains just can’t concentrate on any thing else
Wish I had the will power resist it
Wish I had the strength to wax my ears
Wish I could simply ignore it
But when the castanet strikes
You have no option but to join the red army as they charge
and sing………
‘EVERYWHERE WE GO OO….
EVERYWHERE WE GO OOO…
PEOPLE WANNA SEE US…
PEOPLE WANNA HEAR US…
THEY EVEN WANNA RAPE US….
SO WE TELL THEM…..
SO WE TELL THEM…..
WE ARE THE VANDALS…
WE ARE THE VANDALS…
THE FEARLESS VANDALS…
THE SHARPBRAIN VANDALS…
THE FIRST CLASS VANDALS…
THE Brrrrrrrrrr VANDALS….
ABOLOBOLOSHIBOBO EEII….
YIEYIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE………………………!!!!!!!!
