the jetty



The jetty on the island
One look it seems sturdy to hold
The weight of walking on the wood
Underneath the kissing waves splashing along

The boats arrive
The loads of passengers disembark
The jetty bounces carrying the weight
Nobody pays to listen to the melody

They wave; they smile; they take photographs
Underneath the dancing waves move along
Splashing with the white water with the wind
Nobody pays to listen to the melody

Upfront the tourist dollar
In the eyes of the operators
The poor maintenance on the jetty
It is just a matter of time before it plunges in

So the Bee Anne feeds its cronies
Throwing cash as if it belongs to the party
The people gathered and smile the money in their eyes
The backbone is cracking nobody seems to notice

In time the country will plunge in
The way it is managed and leakages
It is time the people should see
Bee Anne has to go before we lose everything
