Terminated

Tons of calypsonians were crying out for this
Estwick being terminated is a calypsonian’s bliss
Reactions are the same wherever you go
Many are happy that Estwick no longer runs the show
I for one questioned our country’s progress
Noticed its cultural confusion and chaotic mess
And wondered what our culture has grown to be
The emphasis on wukkin up and a big street party
Early calypsos address social molding
Days of Estwick’s anarchy are gone, better days are coming
