Poor Sukie she kyaa wake up
An is not like seh shi ded.
But from election result come out
Shi cuss an gaan to bed!
Mi fren dress up in blue all day
In support of Hillary.
Mercy me! Shi capsize
Wen DI MAN get victory!
Wi bax har back to consciousness.
Is den mi fren get bad!
Shi halla till shi tek off weight.
Wi tink shi was gwine mad.
Hear har likkle dawta
'Hush now noh Mummy.'
'Sometimes di head dat wear di crown
Turn out quite unhappy.'
Sukie scream out pon di pickney.
Mi mout spread out in shak.
Shi seh - 'Yu pupa dedeh!'
'Red-Cap gwine sen im back!'
Mi neva know wat else fi do
Di way Sukie staat gwaan.
Shi all get more hysterical
Bout di plan fi bil-up wall!
Mi could'n badda anymore
Since mi know dat God naa sleep.
Di Bald Eagle it gwine haffi soar
An all di worl' ah watch fi see it!
