(spoken”Checking the season….make sure it’s not Christmas, because we’re not looking to die….Calling Kat’s Cabs”)

Here we are on the Eastenders Block,
stopping the cab in Walford full stop.
Phil Mitchell, he’s giving you the eye
squaring you up, cause you may be a spy.

Don’t mess with no Mitchell’s I’m telling you first,
Or you wont end up in the rest of this verse.

Oh and now here’s Jack Branning, this dude issa cop,
His brother Max then his daughter, own the car lot.
The Knights and the Carters, it’s a shame about Mick,
have up and decided they’re selling the Vic.

I poured one out, on the corner for Martin,
How dare you guys, that whole plot was rotten.
Then here we are with my fav Kat Slater,
you know she throws hands and asks the questions later
You want to know more about the Slater clan,
Listen to me, you just don’t understand.

and Kim of all the Foxes, and even you Ian Beale,
where would we be if the scene, you didn’t steal?
Freddie, Lauren, Janet, Lily, Amy, and Will,
Avani, Denzel, Barney, Davinder, and Louie Beale.
What will be their stories, what will they hide within?
You’ll have find out next episode, when we all tune in.

(Spoken “See you in Walford… Hey, is that Zack over there? Move over… i can’t see….”)

it's just a building, i heard you say,
but i remember yesterday.

just a building, when my daddy died,
a room full people sat and cried.

just a building, the day that i lost
all hope and meaning,
i looked up at the cross
i raised my head and hands in prayer,
to the loving God i knew dwelt there.

it's just a building, i heard you say,
but i remember yesterday.

just a building, where my sister wed,
and kinship with fellowship led.

just a building, with flowers of white,
beauty and hope,
a future so bright
i raised my heart and soul in praise,
to the King i know was raised.

it's just a building, i heard you say,
but i remember yesterday.

just a building, where every week,
we learned the truth we did seek.

just a building, where children sang song,
with pride and joy,
how we must get along
and together we all stood and clapped,
we knew our path the Lord has mapped.

it's just a building, i heard you say,
but i remember yesterday.

just a building, where hugs and prayer,
will strengthen everyone led there.

when our numbers were many, our struggles were few,
now our struggles are many, and members are few.
We pray to the Lord to tell us what to do,
and we carry our burdens wishing they knew.
that it's not just a building, 
if they'd just get a clue.

it's just a building, i heard you say,
but i remember yesterday.

just a building, as long as it stands,
we'll hold it together with praying hands.

CAZ 10-15-2025

it was the weekend before Christmas and all i could see
were tears and destruction, anger and greed.
the decorations they weren’t hanging this year,
because no one was feeling the holiday cheer.
–
the children were protesting and looting the place
with expressions of hatred etched in their face.
and i watched in horror from my living room,
wondering what brought on this season of doom.
–
when out in the parking lot i heard such a noise,
i wondered if it could be one of the boys.
So quick to the window i ran with my gun
to stop this looter from having fun.
–
the moon was smogged out from all the pollution
casting shadows and causing confusion.
then quick as a flash in the corner of my eye
i saw something red and white flash by.
–
the driver was quick and drove with ease,
to the crowd he had to appease.
and when he got out he spoke with command,
“Lower your weapons, and show me your hands”
–
“I come to keep peace, and you have every right
to stand here and protest all through the night.
You say you’ve been wronged and I’m here to protect
each and every one of you, you deserve my respect.”
–
the crowd was not happy, they turned in response,
and tested the law bearer’s deep resilience.
there was so many, and the cop stood alone,
i worried for his safety straight to my bones.
–
then i saw something awful, what did i expect
the anger surged, the cop they were out to get.
i drew my head away from the window curtain,
i didn’t want to see what i knew was certain.
–
the gun shots rang out, the crowd stampeded,
i turned back around to see what proceeded.
and then i saw to my shocking surprise,
a sight that i couldn’t believe my eyes.
–
small children surrounded the uniformed man,
with their silent faces they made a tall stand.
the parents of some did curse and expose,
how dreadful these children were for upholding their foes.
–
they would not be moved and so then i found,
others did gather without making a sound.
the ambulance sirens so far in the distance,
i wondered if they could withstand the resistance.
–
the angry mob pressed in, they wanted to lynch
this innocent soldier would make a good witch.
then to my surprise what more could i say,
his protectors fell down and started to pray.
–
i fell to my knees and found myself joining,
their voices calling out in the early of morning.
we prayed for a miracle, we prayed for peace
we prayed the ambulance would get there at least.
–
and when it arrived, it cut through the crowd,
the cop was then loaded and then it got loud.
they punched the vehicle and made petty threats,
about how every officer deserves what he gets.
–
and as the vehicle drove off with sirens a blazing
i listened to the crowd and all of it’s hating.
and as the ambulance rolled out of sight,
i thought merry Christmas to all…. and to all a good night.
