“Does Not Put Up Wi’ Bein’ Despised”
Or
“Dey Gonna Git Slapped In Da Eye”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(Isaiah 5:24,25 redux)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dey gonna git slapped in da eye
Fo’ despisin’ de HOI.
I’m sayin’ I can tell you why
Dey gonna get spanked by-and-by.
Da anger of da Lord has burned; (25)
His mind against them has been turned!
Stretched out His hand and struck ’em down;
Now deir corpses in the streets can be foun’.
An’ yet His anger is still not spent;
His hand so stretched out, it’s bent!
Mountains a-shakin’ an’ bodies all aroun’;
Trash all over the streets! (25)
Yet His hand is still stretched out
Waitin’ for them to turn about.
So He’ll reach out t’ dose ot’er nations; (26)
Dey can tune t’ deir own stations!
So don’t even mess wi’ da HOI
Les’ you git slapped in da eye!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
