Wind force blowing Gabby off course
He politicized and used the wrong source
Only now he is like a Mitt Romney flip flop
Gabby doesn’t want his ambassadorship to stop
A friend caught him recently
Being part of a motorcade for the DLP
But we know his loyalties for some time now
Yesterday though these loyalties he would disavow
Trying to ingratiate himself back with the DLP
I think he should remember his Flying Fish Diplomacy
Never be disloyal and to never sellout
Keep loyal to values and stop hopping about
Hoping to remain the country’s ambassador
Envoy for culture and maybe even wanting more
I love Gabby songs and enjoyed his performing ability
Spare me this political flip flopping, party hopping side of Gabby

Caan Wait
Calypsonians did so much for this country
And little was done to preserve their artistry
All the past works are lost away
None of them accessible for me today
When I tried searching for lyrics online
A lots of foreign rubbish is all I could find
I abandoned my search by now I investigate
Times will change it all and I Caan Wait

Clothes doth not make a man or woman free. We need to go past that mentality. So what do you say to the boots, big chains and bling, pants falling off backsides, shirts too big and usually with someone's names. is that appropriate? I don't think so. I agree with our entertainers showing some class. Look at groups like the Stylistics and other Motown groups during their day...class compared to most black groups today. that’s only to you. Clothes doth not make a man or woman free. We need to go past that mentality.

i want to say that we live in the caribbean –(not the west indies)-thats a misnomer
we enjoy a hot/wet climate——-not cold
this form of dress was developed by those persons in cold climates for a particular reason
it has been copied and imitated for no other reason than that we feel that everything that the europeans do is right
-
we have been brain washed that way.

as a matter of fact there was a law during slavery that prevented black people from wearing so-called finery so with freedom we probably thought that this was the way to go. i chuckle everytime i see that old photograph of barbados with a street barber dressed in a jacket and cutting another’s hair somwhere in trafalgar square.

the brain washing has cause us to reject almost everything that belongs to us—almost everything. the continued wearing of this type of clothing is indication of the mental slavery in which we are still chained and everytime i see it , i ask the question –why ??

how can we be free when we continue this stupid practice
we are actually living a lie

man throw away this inappropriate form of dress and lets develop a national form of dress
it looks very clownish to me
