Bewear
Bewear of the chant of an innocent girl,
It will hurt you like a fire,
Beware of the anger of a gentle man
It strikes where it pains the most,
Beware of the curse of a mother
It so dealy more like a disaster,
Bewear of the words of politicians
There is a big possibility
Is like a words spoken out just to the air,
Bewear when you trust!
Your best friend could be your worst enemy,
Beware of believe,
Wrong believe leads you to doom!
Bewear of hate!
It hurt like hell,
Bewear of jealousy,
Slowly kills you like a cancer!
Beware of enemy,
They teach you more about yourself,
Beware of education
Wrong education
ends you up to manipulation,
Beware of reality of today
There are more to life yet unknown!
Beware of an innocent face
They can easily deceive you,
Beware of gossip
It create enmity and hate,
Beware!
an act of consciousness,
Above all,
Beware of what you believe you know
It either lead you right
Or lead you astray.
Damn the torpedoes
Damn the torpedoes the Yanks did say,
When duds hit a Jap ship and fell away,
Firing pins weren’t working well,
One sub loosed 13 didn’t break the spell,
Just sometimes one was right.
Bloody thing would ignite,
And the Yanks would bloody yell.
Nineteen fourty four, pins good now for sure,
Sam Dealy and submarine Harder,
Transporting Aussies to Borneo, for,
To upset the Japanese pardeners,
Muiat Suki, Jap Destroyer,
charged the submarine,
Head on was sitting Harder,
1100 yards Dealy fired 3 torpedoes, i mean,
Chopped the fork out of his enchilada,
Next day at 650 yards,
Destroyer Hayanani came,
3 torpedoes hit this Destroyer,
Too many holes it was a shame,
Blew the fork out of his nighty,
Just the same,
The Reaper danced, begorrah,
Z Force men went ashore again ,
Into the wilds of Borneo, and then,
Ole Harder went a hunting men,
Of the Japanese type of fauna.
Don Johnson
