 Don't jibber jabber,

It's World Steelpan Day,

Send a greeting,

Beat a pan,

This musical instrument,

Is here to stay.  


Listen to some steelpan music

I know you will like it.  

Dance, dance, dance, it's good exercise;

It's World Steelpan Day,

Don't jibber jabber.

  3. Gillena, they had a Steelpan player at Meijer Gardens a few months ago. My granddaughter loved the music and started dancing to it. I think only happy music can be played on them.
