Got Extraordinary Magnificence
Golden sands and crystal clear waters On the beach dads with sons and moms with daughters The pleasures seem well within my grip
Each one as close as tongue is to lip ‘Xcitement can possess you like a morbid fear Though you anticipate a thing you never know ‘til you’re there Red skies on evenings and starry skies at night A stroll on the beach at day and later a walk in the moonlight Others will encourage you to go out to play Revel in the streets or see a Crop Over display Dance to Kaiso music to the Ragga Soca beat Intermittent rains that quell the burning Sun’s heat No gawking least it be considered rude And though you enjoy it “wukkin up” can be crude Rhythms coming from far away You can’t wait tah leggo like the Bajans say
Music and crowds are part of the season And Bajans come home for this very reason Get ready friend for what lies ahead No boring days but the fun times instead In the summer when the days are long Festivals play in the streets their Road March song Islanders entertaining their visiting families Cultural extravaganzas throughout the communities Every opportunity to get here people make No one making the ultimate mistake Coming in with suitcases not packed with some gem Each Bajan has craves, and for some chocolate isn’t one of them
