THE LEARNED SQUIB
'Rock Not The Boat' by Adesina Ogunlana
Last week a respected elder of our noble profession called me aside and gave me a very good piece of advice. This is it.
Good man, rock not the boat,
Oh let her dirty cargos be,
Let it sail on, my boy,
Even if it is to ruin.
Rock not the boat,
Cause it no shaking,
Don’t even try to clean it,
Let it go on its awful ways,
Even if it is straight to the rocks.
Rock not the boat,
Let the establishment be,
Swallow the slime,
Even if it stinks and sinks
Rock not the boat.
Rock not the boat
Ask no questions, fire no shots
Let evil grow on and go on
That’s the way of the world.
That’s the way of our world,
Leave the Augean stable well alone
Rock not the boat.
