- Description: "To play the 'Kalimba' is to be happy. I remember long ago when I was a small child when I thought a breast was made of bone. But my mother told me that the breast was not bone, but flesh only. I was fooled long ago, I thought the breast was bone but it is flesh only. Listen my friends, the breast is flesh only." It seems that the obvious meaning of the words is intended to serve a secondary one. Perhaps the revelation of the begining of his natural sex life. Self delectative song.
