True Trini Code

We make a fuss about Dan Brown

And the movie Da Vinci Code,

But daily on cable TV

There’s anti Christian overload.

South Park on Comedy Central

Makes a mockery of every Creed,

Religion bashing is their thing,

Gleefully sowing Satan’s seed.

Regardless if they’re true or false

Ideas are like seeds that we sow,

And if the ground is receptive

You can bet your life they will grow.

It is said we are what we eat,

And most doctors agree it’s true,

So should you feed filth to your mind

And hope it won’t do harm to you?

When “Family Shows” on TV

Glamorise promiscuity,

Portray fornication as fun,

Who dares advocate Chastity?

When children become violent

Why do parents express dismay?

Who was it gave them the Game Boys

But don’t check on what games they play?

Mass media and communications

Provide Satan with lots of toys

Which are now popular

playthings

Of little Trini girls and boys.

Small children have cellular phones

With access to the Internet...

Are parents checking the content

Of websites and emails they get?

Rude bwoy and ghetto behaviour

Are no longer seen as uncouth,

Bling bling, get rich or die trying -

The lifestyle and anthem of youth.

You cyar be a True True Trini

And eh know how to wine and jam,

So every Trini’s Holy Grail

Is the search for a nice bam bam.

Pornography is popular,

So it’s not difficult to see

How some make the transition from

Wining on to in a bumsee.

We celebrate obscenity,

Make role models of the uncouth,

So how come we can’t understand

The lawlessness of today’s youth?

But now that Soca Warriors

Forge this national unity,

We all go love one another

In this land called Sweet T&T.

Amen
