Where’s Our Yams?
(lions – hands on hips) Where’s our yams?
(chorus – shrug shoulders) I don’t know.
(rhinos – hands on hips) Our mangos?
(chorus – shrug shoulders) I don’t know.
(elephants – hands on hips) Bananas?
(chorus – shrug shoulders) I don’t know.
We can tell that it’s Anansi... woh
Don’t be sad.
Who are you?
Little deer!
Who are you?
It’s just us.
We’re so blue!
No, don’t fret; we can get Anansi...
(swipe index fingers) Anansi – You’re gonna get it! We saw all the tricks that he played. (2 fingers point to your eyes - then point out 1 finger) We were watching how he did it so we’ll (fold arms) play the same mean trick on him today.
(swipe index fingers) Anansi – You’re gonna get it! (“traveling hands” – referee style – on “you” point out) We’re turning the tables on you!
(1 hand grab and bend elbow to pull back to body) We’ll get back what you’ve been stealing; (other hand “throw” away from body) we’ll pay back your double dealing. Little deer are gonna get you somehow.
Anansi – you’re gonna get it... (hands out – fingers splayed) Now!!!!!
