THE GOVERNMENT FORGETS

Leaders forget
About tragedies of the past
Lives lost on collapse buildings
And they say it is act of God

So no compensation
Under the law the owners bear
Unless they can proof it is developer negligence
Then sue the company for shoddy work

The government agencies
Immunity laws help the officers
What they have done
They can’t be prosecuted in court of law

These officers escape
The clutches of death in their hands
They aren’t be held accountable
Turning quick buck forget about losses
Of lives and properties
When nature charges her fury

One minister says
It is a natural disaster
It isn’t man made negligence
A sequel of the Act of God
How stupid he thinks the public is?

Don’t buy hill slope properties
Don’t even think you get good Feng Shui
When nature rears her fury
You can only pray

The government forgets
The old record keeps playing
Nothing has changed
Lives will be lost
Unless we change them
And our perception of good living
