When Mebula Ramsandra

When Mebula Ramsandra
was five years old,
His mother told him that if he wanted
to be a big strong man
He' d have to drink all his milk-
and he did.

When Mebula Ramsandra
was seven years old,
His teacher told him
that if he wanted
to go to a grammar school
He d' have to try harder with his homework-
and he did.


When Mebula Ramsandra
was fifteen years old,
His lecturer told him
That if he wanted to be a lab technician
He would have to go to University-
and he did

So, ten years later
When Mebula Ramsandra
was twenty-five years old
A big, strong, clever, educated postgrduate-
The man on the other end of the telephone said,
if he wanted to work for him
He d have to be big,clever, postgraduate-
and WHITE.
