A tune I grew up with..

My brothers and sisters, they build you up
But now that you reach the top, yeah
You don't remember them
Through material things

But remember, high seat killed Miss Thomas' puss
And the greedy dog lose his bone
Through the reflections of his own shadow
But your shabby reaction

Say you're too damn craven
Watch that

But the needy shall not always be forgotten
Everything you run down 'pon
And the expectation of the poor shall not perish

 

Note:

"High seat killed Miss Thomas' puss" is a somewhat obscure Jamaican proverb with the same theme as "Greedy dog lose his bone." The abstract meaning is that the cat of Miss Thomas, climbs up on a seat that is too high and then gets killed.
The moral of both proverbs: the greedy may lose everything.

Still play it regularly - Superb

 

 

Whatever happened to Counter Eurovision?

Seemed like a good idea in 1979.

Misty in Roots - Awesome in every way.

Still around....

Where the hell is Mekudeshet? ( I could Google that, but would prefer an answer here, old style! )
