the tales of twin city




The tales of twin city
Front door swing; backdoor jams
Crowd waiting the doors just lock
Eyes staring silent rules the day

Then the ice-cream man drops by
Ringing his copper bell
Eyes turn to look at him
As he walks slowly by

The swing door still jams
For few seconds the lives move by
Lies and politicians
Red herring and the sly fox
It seems it never ends
The ping pong ball dancing magically away
The crowd just stares no word to say

Looking at the score board
The exit sign turns red…..
What now? No electricity?
The country’s economy turning down

Lottery on SD
Some sincere some for money
The personal conferences defending the status
The people listen eyes open wide
They don’t want to hear anymore
Tell the truth
Let us all go home
To watch the drama queen
Telling her story once more
Ya baby give it to me one more time (patrick teoh)

The door swings open
The crowd rushes out breathing slowly
As they walk towards their destinations
Yeah baby gives me one more time!
