How the crocodile got his smile

How the crocodile got his smile

The African carries his potsĀ 
In the hot African sunĀ 
Down to the river sideĀ 
Only to be eaten by the crocodileĀ 
Once inside the belly of the beastĀ 
The African asks the crocodileĀ 
For forgivenessĀ 
The crocodile laughsĀ 
Asking for forgiveness tooĀ 
Why are you asking for forgivenessĀ 
Asks the African to the crocodileĀ 
The crocodile repliesĀ 
Because I ate youĀ 
The African asks so why ask for forgivenessĀ 
As the crocodile repliesĀ 
Are you not a creature upon this earth once a child now a man missingĀ 
I am your killerĀ 
The African humbled by the crocodile repliesĀ 
I am a killer tooĀ 
I raped and tortured many villagersĀ 
The surprised crocodile smiledĀ 
Ah justice - and that’s how the crocodile got his smileĀ
