pick and choose

 

Pick and choose

It happens quite often

As long as it involves the wolves

The authorities will try to find other culprits


One major wolf on trial

He is accorded all the leeway

He is found guilty yet he could walk freely

Even on bail there are no conditions


Pick and choose

Hear it too often in our lives

The sharks aren't caught in the net

They seem to swim away freely


The trust deficit in the agencies

It seems they don't care much about it

They want to keep their ways

Even IPCMC refused to take in


The corruption index shot high

Yet the shame isn't there to fight

They don't care much about it

It will be business on the old


Ah Long banners appeared again

Once there was cracked down hard on it

It went low for months

Now the old ways on the lamp posts


Pick and choose

It's the old ways bloom

If the voters don't change it

Sri Lanka will make us cry
