the music of bamboo river

The leaders of a dominant party

The ghosts of the past still haunt them

They want to use it to discredit a former PM

Of the incidents happened decades ago

Its leaders feel they are trapped

With the current scandals and corruption

They want to divert attention on themselves

By using the old incidents to justify it

The current scandals they try to hide

Giving lies to polish the crooks

They want to fool the village folks

But the city slickers they will fail

Every agency has been compromise

The Constitution blatantly ignored

It is the sign of the falling down

The steps are uneven the screws missing

There is no way for them to reshape

It is down on the steps they would fall

Into the pit to stay for a long time

Until they face the music of Bamboo River
