Girl from 'Bee Cee'
30 July 2006

So I fell in love
in love with a girl from 'Bee Cee'
As if that was always meant to happen
and for now that love in words does stay

While in matters of birth
British Columbia was there first
For she was not of such a land
neither a Canadian gene in her blood

This maiden of beauty
and South African born
God created her
He created the Gazelle
the child and her fawn

So I feel in love
and know she likes me back
This girl from 'Bee Cee'
all pure and savoury
as to a vegetarian snack

The Springbok (Afrikaans: spring = jump; bok = antelope, deer, or goat) (Antidorcas
marsupialis) is a small brown and white gazelle that stands about 75 centimetres high.
The males can weigh up to 50 kilograms and the females up to 37 kilograms. The Latin name
marsupialis derives from a pocket-like skin flap which extends along the middle of the
back on to the tail. The springbok can lift this flap, which makes the white hairs underneath
stand up in a conspicuous 'fan'.

Springboks inhabit the dry inland areas of south and southwestern Africa. Springbok range
includes south and southwestern Africa, mainly in the countries of Namibia, Botswana, Angola
and the Republic of South Africa.

The Springboks, is the nickname of the South African national rugby union team.
The Springboks, as they are commonly referred to, compete in the Tri Nations Series
alongside the New Zealand (All Blacks) and Australia (Wallabies), as well as competitions
such as the Rugby World Cup.
