The 12 days of Christmas

In light of de turble economic conditions facing Bubbadus and the need fuh sacrifices, I have composed my own little song this Christmas season. Truth be told, 2013 didn’t bring much joy to anybody.
My song is pun the theme of the 12 days of Christmas. These days yuh need li’l humour cause if yuh don’t laugh, yuh gine cry and I don’t’ want no tears, crocodile nor de real thing dis Christmas. Ah only hope dat anybody who recognize themselves in this song will know dat it was meant in good sport. Don’t tek it personally, not that I care if yuh do!
