Calypso-Lion & Donkey- The Mighty Sparrow



See, this is how politics should be done. With gentle humor, and sometimes humor that is not so gentle. In this song, the lion isn't a lion and the donkey isn't a donkey. For that matter, the monkey isn't a monkey either. The song is about an election, and the audience in Trinidad would have recognized all of the animals for who they were. 

How about that Sparrow? Pretty good, 'eh?
