The Pudu Jail in Kuala Lumpur
A 100 years old building finally bites the dust
A house for criminals and hangmen
A history Bee Anne doesn't want

The lives of those who served
The lives of those who died
Recorded in the books once lived there
Now the Pudu jail finally gone

Money can be made
Turn into a tourist attraction
Let the history bring the tourists
Of a prison stands in history

Now it is only dust
The brick-walls all gone
Into projects to enrich
Of groups aligned to the elites

The Pudu Jail
Once a place to contain
The bad hats and hangmen
Now a history lost a heritage gone
