Table Tennis Table - Gilberto Gil

Table tennis table

I and I Play to show we are able

Not to die

Small and light white ball

Forth and forth

All is irie and irie is all

Love is worth

Don’t think I’m trying to make another I One is enough

I’m just expanding to overstand a cry

As well as a laugh

Don’t think I’m lieing to fake another me One is too much

I’m just extending the shores of my sea

Beyond any reach, beyond any touch

See, on the opposite side as if we look on a mirror

The other, the same

See, on the table tennis table I’m killing the killer

Is this me/we game

This me/we game

This me/we game

Oh!

Me/we

Yes, me/we

The shortest poem in all poetry

Oh!

Me/we

Yes, me/we

The poem Cassius Clay declamed

Like I and I The same I and I Identical to I and I The pray that rastamen proclaimed

To say that we are never alone in this world

Me/we, I and I To state that state of togetherness

The oness that means not to die

Table tennis table

Ping-pong, ping-pong, I and I Play to show we are able

Not to die, not to die

Small and light white ball

Forth and forth and so forth

All is Irie, Irie is all

Love is worth, love is worth
