sungai siput waves him goodbye

Sami will meet his Waterloo
The Indians will bury him for good
The Chinese will say he deserved it
Hiking toll charges unfriendly contracts

And the Malays
They have realized they got tricked
Years ago benefiting little
It is UMNO which took it all

Sami can say until the cows go home
Giving statistics to show how much he helped the Indians
Did he know he is lying through?
The percentage doesn’t add up at all
His families and cronies had (allegedly) taken (all) most of it
What the rest of the Indians take?
Crumbs spreading too far wide
He doesn’t care when he knows

Now he knows his time is up
Sungai Siput the shell has cracked
His vision is blurry; he thinks he is the lord
The people owing him for his projects

Nay he forgets he is elected to serve
The people who put him there
When one forgets his root
It is time to kick him goodbye
So he knows this is his Waterloo

Sungai Siput should put him to pasture
Sending him off on his birthday
Wishing him the best on his retirement
Let the shackles be gone
A new era sings in the air!
