Ever since his days of introducing calypso to American audiences,Harry
Belafonte introduced a song that would challenge the current neuroscientific
idea that men are smarter than women.The challenge to that is the calypso song
MAN SMART,WOMAN SMARTER and it goes like this:
Lets put man and woman together
To find out which one is smarter
Some say men, but I say no
Women are smarter in every way
Samson was the strongest man long ago
When he me Delilah he did not know
Delilah found the strength was in his hair
And Delilah cut his
hair........................
Other verses would seem to contradict the notion of a man's superior
intelligence.
Not me,its the people who say that the men are
leading the women astray
But I say the women are smarter in everyway.
And let us not forget
Matilda,Matilda,Matilda she take
me money and went Venezuela
(Once again now........)
