Please look at my lovely students.

“Girl”
By Jamaica Kincaid

Wash the white clothes on Monday and put them on the stone heap;
wash the color clothes on Tuesday and put them on the clothesline to
dry; don’t walk barehead in the hot sun; cook pumpkin fritters in
very hot sweet oil; soak your little cloths right after you take
them off; when buying cotton to make yourself a nice blouse, be sure
that it doesn’t have gum on it, because that way it won’t hold up
well after a wash; soak salt fish overnight before you cook it; is
it true that you sing benna in Sunday school?; always eat your food
in such a way that it won’t turn someone else’s stomach; on
Sundays try to walk like a lady and not like the slut you are so
bent on becoming; don’t sing benna in Sunday school; you mustn’t
speak to wharf-rat boys, not even to give directions; don’t eat
fruits on the street--flies will follow you; but I don’t sing benna
on Sundays at all and never in Sunday school; this is how to sew on
a button; this is how to make a hole for the button you have just
sewed on; this is how to hem a dress when you see the hem coming
down and so to prevent yourself from looking like the slut I know
you are so bent on becoming; this is how you iron your father’s
khaki shirt so that it doesn’t have a crease; this is how you iron
your father’s khaki pants so that they don’t have a crease; this
is how you grow okra--far from the house, because okra tree harbors
red ants; when you are growing dasheen, make sure it gets plenty of
water or else it makes your throat itch when you are eating it, this
is how you sweep a corner; this is how you sweep a whole house; this
is how you sweep a yard; this is how you smile to someone you don’t
like very much; this is how you smile to someone you don’t like at
all; this is how you smile to someone you like completely; this is
how you set a table for tea; this is how you set a table for dinner;
this is how you set a table for dinner with an important guest; this
is how you set a table for lunch; this is how you set a table for
breakfast; this is how to behave in the presence of men who don’t
know you very well, and this way they won’t recognize immediately
the slut I have warned you against becoming; be sure to wash every
day, even if it is with your own spit; don’t squat down to play
marbles--you are not a boy, you know; don’t pick people’s flowers--
you might catch something; don’t throw stones at blackbirds,
because it might not be a blackbird at all; this is how to make a
bread pudding; this is how to make doukona; this is how to make
pepper pot; this is how to make a good medicine for a cold; this is
how to make a good medicine to throw away a child before it even
becomes a child; this is how to catch a fish; this is how to throw
back a fish you don’t like, and that way something bad won’t fall
on you; this is how to bully a man; this is how a man bullies you;
this is how to love a man, and if this doesn’t work there are other
ways, and if they don’t work don’t feel too bad about giving up;
this is how to spit up in the air if you feel like it, and this is
how to move quick so that it doesn’t fall on you; this is how to
make ends meet; always squeeze bread to make sure it’s fresh; but
what if the baker won’t let me feel the bread?; you mean to say
that after all you are really going to be the kind of woman who the
baker won’t let near the bread?

對! 一定要看第二次以上才不會覺得他們惡搞。

不但音樂很成功,小女孩不敢回嘴只敢在心裡頭叛變的詮釋也做得很好。

她們上學期甚至又拍了 The Rich Brother,
敬請期待!
