===============================
A Bajan and a Trinidadian dying with starvation
The Bajan say, "Look, Trini, let we make a cook.
I put the rice, you going put the meat
Then we going both have something to eat."
But when the pot was nearly to done
The Bajan decide to pull a fast one.
[He said, "Trini, I�m a born Barbadian, I don't like to fight
But when come to the occasion, man, I stick fuh mih right
You put in a twelve-cents meat bone, you worse than a lice
I going give you a word of advice,
"Take your meat out mih rice!"]
Trini got in a big rage, "What wrong with you, Baje?
I going tell you flat, Baje, I ain't taking that!
When we were shopping we both agree
The food will be cook and share equally
I put mih last penny in this meat and I ain't moving until I eat."
[Baje say,
"Trini, I�m a born Barbadian, I don't like to fight
But when come to the occasion, man, I die fuh mih right
You put in a ten-cents meat bone, you think that is nice?
Well don't make me have to tell you twice,
"Take your meat out mih rice!"]
The Bajan then said to Trini, "Man don't tell lies on me.
I never told you that we going join and cook up in two.
What I mention, I can repeat, I said to lend me a piece of meat."
Trini so vex, he begin to cry, "Baje, in front mih eye you telling a lie?"
[Baje say, "Trini, I�m a born Barbadian, I don't like to fight
But when come to the occasion, man I die fuh right.
Yuh put in a nine-cents meat bone, good lord,
you want half a slice?
If you don't want a Bajan ice,
"Take your meat out mih rice!"]
By this time the pot finish, Trini pick up a dish
The Bajan say, "No no, no, never happen so!
If you wanted something to eat,
man take a fork and pick out your meat
But if you add one grain of rice, by christ, I squeeze yuh throat like a vise."
["Trini, I�m a born Barbadian, I don't like to fight
But when come to the occasion, man I die fuh mih right
You put in a eight-cents meat bone, you Trinidadian lice
Before I squeeze you like vise,
"Take your meat out mih rice!"]
