The Log Brothas come to me I trying to save you all in despair no hope in sight you will not be spared. the evil man do catch up to you now is hellfire brimstones! But rest easy I am here, though great your mistakes do not despair I will preach to give you a new day. So he preached he did beseech each man to repent at length. But as he walked one could not help but see The Brotha Man was hinder that day by the log in his eyes but he could not see.

East Indian Delight!
East Indian Delight! I am King! Or Queen... On this island I'm a big thing. I sit on top my throne can never be taken. brilliantly blinding blazing in orange-yellow glows I eclipse them all. East to the West I am the best I captivate your tastebuds sugary lava I will erupt delightfully, explosively... pleasures untold, hypnotising - I do not boast - only truth I speak. Once you taste me you will be weak in your knees!
