Since dey moving Jashtown to Soesdyke
because it will be going under water
dem gon got to find a suitable name
appropriate for de grand location.
David’s Town is a non-starter.
Parfaite Harmonie is scratched.
Donald was like he never deh-deh.
The best one Singhapur is taken
which de English anglicize to Singapore.
That brings us to Bharratpur
or for up-to-date-ness, Irfaanabad.
Before de illiterati raise objection
Dat Irfaanabad sound like de man is bad,
please know dat “abad” is Urdu for city,
like Islamabad and Hyderabad.
Besides Bharratabad meck he sound like badman
while Irfaanapur sound too much like a kitten.
So back to Bharratpur or Irfaanabad.
One person wanted to know
what we gon do about Prado Two.
We gon jack it up from underneath
until it becomes the tallest structure
in de sea, nay, in de entire galaxy.
When dem Andromedans come to visit
on their tours of intergalactic heritage sites
they will marvel at de chandelier
unless Glenn Lall gets there first.
Suh, cast your votes for either
Bharratpur or Irfaanabad.
After Bingo and Lottofeel has counted them
Millie’s Hideaway gon be de winner.
