The Idylls of Ubu, Canto IV: YORUBA

      Canto IV: YORUBA 

Your Ma's Yoruba...? Good for her! My Ma's Heruba, that's for sure.
And as for me...? Myruba, pure. Our two Ourubas we endure.
Do we embrace Theiruba...? No! Now, Ándale! Arriba!! Go!!!
Our furlough in Aruba's due...nay: overdue! I'm psych'd. (Aren't you...?)

     * A West-African ethnicity common in parts of Nigeria, Benin and Togo.
