the old man will get the knocks

The Old Man* will get the knocks

He will be the punching bag now

Once he turns himself into opposition

His former party leaders will knife him with words

They will the attack mode

Pulling him down to the ground

All those years of showing respect

When he was their leader at the top

Now when he wants to make a change

He thinks it is good for the nation

By bringing down one person

Who has caused so much bad publicity

It is how the other countries looking at us

Why we don't feel the shame but let the crook be?

The corruption needs to be addressed quickly

And the crooks will be put in jail

Now even a state ruler jumped on it

Telling the old man to behave

It isn't the way to handle a problem

A state ruler must seem to be fair to all

The Old Man doesn't bother

He has his way to handle it nicely

When the opportunity comes again

He will know what to do and say

The Old Man has his faults

He could have made the wrong calls

He could also have taken the right measures

Now he wants to right the wrong for the nation
