the imbalance is pulling us down


There is nothing fine in the economy
Living in the glass tower seeing nothing
These leaders should walk the ground
Alone and observe maybe ask a few questions
They will be surprise when they hear it
It isn't no help producing graphs and statistics
What can numbers do when the real pain is there?

The malls you will see
Shops close as owners can't make it
Some say rental increase and GST
Making business will be hard to get by
The shoplots in the malls
Cost of doing business will be high
With the current trend in the country
The economy isn't looking rosy

Even the hawkers will tell
It is hard to make ends meet
But they will increase selling price
Driving away more customers instead
They say they can't help it
Costs have gone up
So they need to play the game

While the government leaders tell a different story
Yet they are afraid of the shadows lurking behind
When opponents criticise them on their handling
They send the police to monitor the opponents
As if to show how tough they are in it?

The economy isn't sailing smoothly
There are grouses on the ground
The government ministers better shape up
Take charge and work on it
Don't just follow blindly to support a leader
When the imbalance is pulling us down
