"If She Wasn't A Teggaregg...."

By

De gal is brighter than a morning star,

Some a dem no really care far ar,

Dem try fi set ar up,

Poor ting! She was just an innocent pup,

Thank God she went into "teggaregg mode",

She was able to diffuse dem episode,

Lark a Massie! Dem really try fi spoil up de little lassie,

Gossiping bout ar as if she have fassie,

Thank the Almighty for ar Jamaican upbringing,

She was able to make dem feel like a dutty schilling,

Suppose she never know fi act like a "teggareg",

Fi dem mercy she would have to beg,

She just expose dem foolishness,

Leaving dem in a whole pile of mess,

Can you imagine if she never have a little "teggaregishness" ?
