the train on the wrong track

The train on the wrong track

The decades it has been

No visionary leaders came to rescue

Every leader saw the wealth to play


The years rolled in

Every policy became a race

The leaders never thought about it

The nation is multi-racial


The black gold boom

Made the glory for a while

Spent it like no tomorrow

Saving hardly in the coffers


We can envy South of the border

The leaders there got it right the first time

They knew what to do and plan it accordingly

Here the leaders thought of 3Rs but forgot Rakyat


Now we face our crunch time

The black gold price is low

Covid 19 hits us hard on the economy

Now how to fund our progress and expenses?


The economy is crying

Many have lost their jobs

What will do the coup leaders do?

They plan to take out the wealth


The train on the wrong track

No able leaders came to correct it

For decades these leaders got it wrong

Now the sinking hole feeling in the air
