the lame excuses



The river clogged
When the rain fell

The people cried
It wasn't fair

They wrote to complaint
The usual lame excuses

No funds to help
Bear with it for a while

Equipments fixed
Poor maintenance the disease

The government officials
They sat in offices....

Writing lengthy reports
On the field they forgot

Did they have a log book?
Covering the areas they had to inspect?

The river clogged
Flash floods rising

The people complained
They took a long time coming

Now over $610 million paid out
The $500/- for eligible person

If only the priority is right
The suffering of housing estates solved

With a 10% allocation
The councils can do wonders

Now the complaints
Change the government

It is the time
For our better future
