The historical Jamaican feast

Start off from scratch with some Arawak Indians
Foil and let them flourish during decades

Abruptly toss a handfull of Spanish colonists
Pour into a saucepan and whip with a full cup of racism

Add two tablespoons of persecuted and enslaved Africans
Let them simmer with a teaspoon of rage and yards of sugarcane

Include a pinch of British troops in the saucepan
Boil until complete evaporation of the original Indians

Then shake all the ingredients and add sadness to the mixture
Stir them with courage and turn up the temperature

Finally turn off the fire and sprinkle with some glory
Squeeze Jamaica completely out of all obscurity

To guarantee the genuine and Caribbean taste
Spice everything up with abolition of slavery in the land of water and wood

Rwanda
Take a land
Rich in ethnicity
Cut it in two pieces
For the Belgians and Germans
Simmer the Tutsis and Hutus
To see which one has a better taste
Sprinkle the Tutsis with sugar
And whip the Hutus
To dig out the smell
Of rage and inequality
Leave the saucepan
And watch it heat with anger
When it boils
Pour some racism
And stir the all
With guns and machetes
Let the Hutus warm up
And gut the Tutsis
Listen to the sound
Of the choping knives
Listen to the sound
Of pouring tears
Enjoy the taste
Of cruelty
Enjoy the taste
Of innocent blood.
