Things I Hear Every Day
(This one’s is for Peter Gordon
who said I wasn’t to use Maori
unless I understood the words used.
Ka pai, nephew.)
Sweet As, the day’s going well
Can’t you tell
Sweet As
Ka pai in the same frame
Sweet As for those bi-lingual
Ka Pai (idiomatically – been a naughty boy!) serve him right
to be hoped he won’t make
the same mistake again Sweet As
I’m a box of fluffies Sweet As
Crash Here Sweet As a good night’s sleep
Git Y’ laughin’ gear ‘round that think mouth around this
Wachit Mate Watch it, friend! Mind how you go!
See Ya Later which, of course, I may not
or it’s to be hoped so
Sweet As
Tu Meke (Two MeKee)
