The girls and I just watched a recent video from our favorite West African super group, Bisso na Bisso. The content of the video intrigued us enough to send us looking for the meaning of the words.
The following is just one of the many verses as translated from the French into English by a computer working for Google. I dare someone to reference this verse in a sermon with apparent sincerity (I'm looking at you, John)
The angels are on strike, my dreams become nightmares
A new brief from the front, the sap flows of evil, the end of the truce.
It's like a jungle in slalom between guns and came,
The man die because qu'Eve had a weakness for apples.
I looked up, and lift myself up to the heavens.
God bless my soul, preserve the blade of
Envious of drama and fire, it Crame, I rhyme,
Train between the crime and the tears, the flowers fade, faith bonus
Lino on mission for the lord.
John, if you do mention in a sermon that "As Bisso na Bisso says, the angels are on strike," you know what you'll receive? That's right. Faith bonus.
Joel Tom on mission for the Lord.
