ZCF Hall of Famer

Opening post

Chigumbura in the back, Gus Mackay in the front

Cruisin' down the freeway in the hot, hot sun

Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind

Loud voice booming, "Please step out onto the line"

Sean Ervine preaches words of comfort, Hamilton just hides his eyes

Policeman taps his shades, "Is that a Chevy '69?"

How bizarre

How bizarre, how bizarre

Destination unknown, as we pull in for some gas

Freshly pasted poster reveals a smile from the past

Elephants and acrobats, lions snakes monkey

Blignaut speaks "righteous," his sister says "funky"

How bizarre

How bizarre, how bizarre

Ooh, baby (Ooh, baby)

It's making me crazy (It's making me crazy)

Everytime I look around

Everytime I look around (Everytime I look around)

Everytime I look around

It's in my face

Ring master steps out and says "The rebels have left town"

People jump and jive, but the clowns have stuck around

TV news and camera, there's choppers in the sky

Marines, police, reporters ask where, for and why

Marillier yells, "We're outta here," Streaky says, "Right on"

We're making moves and starting grooves before they knew we were gone

Jumped into the Chevy and headed for big lights

Wanna know the rest? Hey, buy the rights...

How bizarre

How bizarre, how bizarre

Ooh, baby (Ooh, baby)

It's making me crazy (It's making me crazy)

Everytime I look around

Everytime I look around (Everytime I look around)

Everytime I look around

Take a look at Gus Mackay, just before you die, its the last time you will.

Blackened roar, massive roar fills the crumbling ground.

shattered goal fills the Windies soul with a ruthless cry

Stranger now are Guses eyes to this mystery, hears the silence so loud

Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be.

Now they see what will be..... blinded eyes to see...

For Whom the Bell Tolls

Gus Mackay keeps bowling on....
