Reggae Rhymes

 Once upon a Time We had Nursery Rhyme

Lies and twist to undermine

Leading us to  naively believe

Ridiculous Tales of deceit


Expecting us to sit and ponder

Jack sprat in a world of wonder

He was fat while spouse was lean

The weirdest pair You've ever seen


Why were there three gents in a tub

when not allowed a Woman's club

The Butcher, The Baker , Candle stick Maker

Were surely Knaves upon a Caper


Humpty Dumpty Built a brick wall

Built it to high then had a fall

Smashed his head then went to Bed

Scrambled his brain and ate it with bread


Twelve kids top and tail
In one bed up for sale

Surely This cant be true

While living in The Mothers Shoe


Where was the frail old man

 All of this appning in Kingston Town?

Locked up in the jail or the clink

One would shudder to even think


Cha man Peter Pumpkin Eater

Distrust him wife a sinful cheater

Locking her up in a pumpkin shell

She enjoyed the ride Tai grass as well


Old king Cole was a sweet old soul

Out of work and on the dole

Sat in the parlor deal me bread and Honey

Cant get a job for love nor Money


Old Mother Hubbard

Went to the cupboard

and found it empty and bare

She said to the pup " Go fetch me cup"

 Fill it with Tai and  fresh air


So many Bad stories and Rhymes were told

Believed by kids but not by the old

The reason for this is we become wise

And all of these lyrics contain only lies.


Pass the grass down the right hand side

Smoke dem weed and take a ride

Dem nursery rhyme make no sense

Like dem roach just make me tense
