Give me cake or give me death!!!

by Fatou Jaw Manneh


Give me cake or give me death!!!

Senseless arithmetic we always hear

Quick fix algebra some of us call it

but the PROFESSOR insists it is called calculus

Papers signed, PROFESSOR handed the plate

Some crocodile tears shed

As the call girl of Gambian opposition

Wiped some tears of gratitude

Clinging onto the dancing pole,

Raising the glass and so declared

Give me cake or give me death!!


That is Ahmat Bah of the NRP

An amicable man I heard

But blinded by greed I suspect

Insensate to the cause I believe

Will sell us all to Senegal I dreamt and

He’ ll trade us to the dogs if elected I fear

Remember 2006 when he hopped into bed with NADD

Thinking the pie was well near him for snatch

But soon the PROFESSOR came with his complicated mathematics

And then Hamat flew over

Following Ousainou to the house of UDP

To undermine Ousainou whom he regards as the political softie

Whom he distrusts was nearer the pie and is up for snatch

But then Ousainou got a full house of rowdy men and women

With AK47s they bolted all the gates

Hamat then took a 360 turn and ran back to the Prof. for the pie


Give me the cake or give me death!!

Who cares about these dying Gambians?

Until I grab this sacred national pie?

The tyrant can shoot them all

For all I care

Give me this cake or give me death!

I am so pissed off at them and I wonder

Why God made me Gambian instead of Nigerian

Can you imagine with my versatility and fake pizzazz!

I could have ran between those Nigerian generals and be crowned

Hamat of Gambia Fuladou, Senator of the Akwamba Highland State of Nigeria

In the blink of an eye

Well here I come Gambianos

Give me this cake or give me death?

Who said this is about saving Gambia you fools

This all about cake and dough and cake and pie and Goddamned pie!

To hell with all those clueless Diaspora Gambians

We will do this tiddy biddy convention, wasteful hotel bills and some little rickety noise

Hey if it will bring me Cake, God bless the Gambia


Give me Cake or give me death!!!

I do not care what you Gambians think

I will have to have this cake at whatever price

Like Buthelezi during the thick of the anti-Apartheid struggle

As Mandela and crew near the destination called freedom

Sprung from nowhere with animal skin garb , a spear and a bow

Cried to Mandela and the ANC survivors

Give me cake or give me death!!!

Who said I cannot succeed too


Give me cake or give me death!!

A waste of time and energy on the Gambian voter

What befell Halipha to hop in bed with Hamat

Is the whole predicament consuming the nation

As they cruise into history being an alliance of spoilers

I hope they fix this mess ASAP so

This ***** Jammeh can get the hell off our backs!

Pa Samba Jow, my dear senator in Maryland

Please get the hell out of this partisan crab hole

And rob some lime juice all over your face

This is not about party, person or theory

This is for country and country alone

So much is at stake and time we don’t have for real

Conventions, mathematics, and little crowns here and there

are mere shenanigans taking us nowhere?

Gambians expect and hope for

A tsunami of change to put the Banjul tyrant to shame and in chains

We need no camp fires to fatten this *****ic dictator called Yahya Jemus Alphonse Jammeh

Hope you and Karamba help address the truth to your caliphate

And simplify the polemics and mathematics that our ordinary brethrens know not

And clear this mess that soils our body politic

So we can all breathe the air of liberty again

So we can cry that Gambia has freedom at last!
