He is fine and suave
And so wears them
Wears them holes like clothes
II
He has an overall in his huge house
One that all his family knows
One that God’s hands have sealed
One that all close acknowledge
III
I am awed to a point
At the overall’s removal
In replacement with many different coloured shirts
When he steps out
Sometimes some second hand trousers
Oh! He also makes some shoes he wears around
I don’t want to mention the supporters he purchases
At public restings
“Ei Akuwa yi! Wo dwene sɛ wo yɛ guy”
You can taste all honeys
But one calabash may call its bees
It is there that the goat will see
That beyond stubbornness
Its meat can be made tender and sweet
