REINCARNATION
Composed by Spoiler [Theophilus Phillip] (1953)
Performed by Lord Invader

Yes, I heard when you die after burial
You got to come back as some insect or animal
Yes, I heard when you die after burial
You got to come back as some insect or animal
Well if is so, I don’t want to be a monkey
Neither a sheep, a goat or donkey
My brother said he want to come back a hog
But not Invader, I want to be a bedbug.

Just because I want to bite them young ladies, partner
Like a hot dog or a hamburger
If you know you’re thin, don’t be in a fright
Is only big, fat women I want to bite.

"Now, what you want to be?" I ask Mr. Ross
He say he’ll ask the Devil to turn him a horse
I ask another fella they call Lawrence
He say he want to be a big black wood ant.
They too foolish. When you turn a horse
You got to carry people load, get licks from your boss
And like a wood ant, is old wood you have to eat
But as a bedbug, I'll be biting the human meat.

And that is why I want to bite them young ladies, partner
Like a hot dog or a hamburger
And if you know you’re thin, don’t be in a fright
Is only big, fat women I want to bite.

Now, I want you believe me, so help me bless
I’ll be a different kind of bedbug from all the rest
I ent biting no ordinary people
They got to be quite social and respectable
Such as female doctors and barristers
Duchesses, princesses with nice figures
And when ah bite them, I'm going 'bout and boast
And ah calling myself King Bedbug the First.

That's why I want to bite them young ladies, partner
Like a hot dog or a hamburger
If you know you’re thin, don’t be in a fright
Is only big fat women I want to bite.

I know how some husbands are fast and fresh
They will be waiting for this bedbug to bite their flesh
But I wouldn’t bite a man if they kill me dead
As long as the opposite sex on the bed
Biting a man, I might break my teeth
To a bedbug, men skin harder than concrete
And when a bug bite a man, the result is bad
Men foot have too much hairs and dey legs too hard.

That's why I want to bite them young ladies, partner
Like a hot dog or a hamburger
If you know you’re thin, don’t be in a fright
Is only big, fat women that I going to bite.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Spoiler and Lord Invader,    

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
