One poor night our Daddy died
But not thank Christ his beautiful mind
It went on and on forever
Memorised like Easter weather!
I arrived to find him dead
In his gardening shorts Amen!
And all his tubes came out
I thought I heard a tremendous shout!
He was sitting in his chair
Sulphurous face and silver hair
Like some little light went out
All those years our Daddy's Shout!
Mum hasn't spoken for a year
Finding it tough to dislodge a tear
Hard to say if she loved him or not
Sweet were the words our mum forgot
All those hurtful drops of blood
His face was down and then some
His lovely blue eyes all shut
It felt like God had left the hut
He was sitting in his chair
Sulphurous face and silver hair
Like some little light went out
All those years our Daddy's Shout!
He once bought our mum a rooster
He wished she kissed him like she used to
