you can't have it all


You want to live in the city
You must prepare for sacrifice
You can’t have it all in the old
It has to change with developments

The economy has to grow
It can’t grow in your head
You can dream with it
Living in the old

Cars will multiply
People will flock in
Living in the city
The traffic jams and social ills

Of course, one group will cry
Jumping up and down like the monkeys
“Where is my home? Where is my green?”
Living in the city you have to sacrifice

Nature will make way
For the progress of the city
Buildings, roads and alleys
The traffic jams and social ills

You want to live the best
You don’t want to live in a cave
Without the modern amenities
Yet you cry for the old

To make it better
The city has to do replanting
The pathways grow of new trees
Trim it well and not chop it down

The public transport must improve
Let no cars going to the city
Trees chop down must replant
The developers must not run away
