It was in the 90s, my father was rich and there for us<\/p>\n
He travel on the weekdays but there he is on the weekends<\/p>\n
He plays the Sunny Ade music from the new CDR he bought<\/p>\n
Teaching us how to dance with our legs<\/p>\n
The way Sunny the musician does<\/p>\n
The tape stops , he frowns at it<\/p>\n
Then he smiles, like the normal was just in briefs<\/p>\n
He removed a red motor car from his pricey suitcase<\/p>\n
He placed it on the ground and time us to gather around<\/p>\n
He remove the cassette and places it in the boot of the shiny motorcar<\/p>\n
Off it zoomed rewinding the tape<\/p>\n
So that we could play and listen to the song with my Dad<\/p>\n
Who loves dancing with his legs<\/p>\n
Before the motorcar could rewind more cassette<\/p>\n
The car blew up with the\u00a0 house we stayed<\/p>\n
I said Bye bye, the red rewinding motor car<\/p>\n
Even though it’s now a raging inferno<\/p>\n
Rewinding my memories of the past<\/p>\n
