the taxpayers' woes

$22 million
For services and checks
For Putrajaya buildings
On the poor workmanship

It is the norm
In the Works Ministry
“Give me the money
I get it fix in quick time”

The tax payers cry
Money for crony’s flight
Like the Superman
Listening to ratepayers’ woes
Of the MPs we vote

Now it is Parliament House
Leaking roof old wires
Last renovation was $90 million
In 2005 and now look
It comes one more time
The money train arrives

Samy says we are the doctors
We come to check when get sick
He forgets about prevention
JKR engineers and architects
What they do I know not?
Everything seems to privatize

So there will be a hefty bill
I guess something like $180 million
For poking the wires
Knocking out walls

Oh ministers!
They take voters for the rides
Feeling giddy going up and down
Finally mark crosses here
You are done
They walk back to their offices
Smiling for jobs accomplished
