Analysis of Switch

Omike John 1993 (Delta)



Play in a beach
Wound got a stitch,
Risk could be bridged
Turn off the switch.

Sweet like a tea
Peel out the bean
Fill all the seat
Make a switch.

Bulb looking boring
Life crying sorry
God saying glory
You have a story

Time to pull over
Dine now is Passover
Come closer because it is all
Over.
Just made a switch.
