the cake must be shared

 

The winner takes it all

That's the nature of the game

Nobody can fault it

Everyone understands the score

In politics it isn't

There needs to show compassion

For the voters who voted against

They exercise the rights of democracy

Every party which wins the election

The leaders can't take it all

There are the needs of the losers

The winning party must be gracious

Ultimately in the final score

The nation and people should come first

The elected politicians must show the way

The cake must be shared for the country to progress

the 3 bad guys

 

The 3 bad guys

Causing problems to the nation

Though growing old and veteran in politics

Yet the ages of time they haven't learned

The 3 bad guys

Their own members will claim

They never do wrong in their times

The members are bats blind

The 3 bad guys

The game of race and religion

Running their minds

They can't think of anything but their own

The bad vibrations ring

They will ignore it

They will not say it is their doing

They want the cake and eat it whole

Now they are out of power

But behind the doors they still try

Stirring up their imaginative loss

Of their race and religion costs

The 3 bad guys

The tricks are known by many

The nation doesn't need

The ways of the bad

my little sister

 

The eyes see a loss of a face

The heart bleeds can't forget

The wind will echo a name

Wondering into the night dream

Along the lights it shines

The shadows retreat but the mind stays

Living in a time of long ago

The walk of memories gone too soon

At 3 years old

Suffering fever high temperature

Living in poor no money to pay

At the dawn of time she was gone

My little sister

No time to say goodbye

No time to see

She left us in sorrow and pain

But the crying done

Yet the memories still stay

Once in a while I still remember

My little sister I haven't said goodbye

the monkey forgets his root

 

The monkey stays high

On the cable munching his nuts

Looking below he seems he is right

Thinking he owes no party any allegiance

The monkey forgets

He got his mark through the wolf party

The years he was until he was kicked out

Trying to campaign for the opponents

Now he is out from the wolf party

He still hasn't learned his lessons

He still shouts support for the opposition

Telling his listeners the wolf party will be wiped out

Now he shows his mental capacity

The monkey should jump down from the cable

Walk the road feel the heat on his feet

He may realize he has nothing to offer not even advice

The monkey must learn to accept defeat

Learn to live with humility stay on with patience

Maybe in time a new party president may call him back

So he should stay quiet and offer assistance without shame

loan sharks

 

Loan sharks in Penang and elsewhere

The heat rising they feel the blue

As the police go after the illegal lenders

The CPO gets the threatening letter

Maybe within the police ranks

They are officers borrowing from the loan sharks

The loan sharks have been around for decades

Like corruption it is deep rooted in our society

The CPO should investigate within his department

There is no denying a fact the loan sharks

Always eager to lend money to prosper

Without the cumbersome paper-work

It is still an illegal business

The police should wipe them out

They advertise everywhere on lamp posts or buildings

Set up a unit to concentrate on the loan sharks

lucy of the north

 

Lucy of the North

Time he has to face his music

He has to face his sedition charge

A man of no calibre to run the state

The crocodile leaders

Always issuing statements without thinking

Believing they can run above the law

Now Anwar says Lucy will be investigated

As the police report lodged

Lucy of the North

He better prepares to stay in prison

This will hold his kind to be accountable

Lucy of the North

Penang is a state by itself

She has no allegiance to Kedah

She has her state laws and regulations

Laws must be not be misused

Everyone who goes against it

Has to pay the consequences

It has no eyes but the impact of a law

corruption in the country

 

Corruption in the country

It will take some years to eradicate it

It has gone into the system

Every layer seems to get involved

In the early years

People talked of coffee money

It would soothe up things faster

Then wasting time lining up

In the early 80s

It could be called commission

Nobody would raise alarm

It was a natural progression

In the early 21^st century

Coffee money turns into commission

It then turns into donation

Escaping the law on Income tax

The unity government will have a tough time

Trying to find ways to stop the spread of corruption

It can't be stopped within a year no way it could

Within the next 5 years it may happen on the change

strong behave weak

 

When you are rich

You don't have to show

You can lie low

You can enjoy your freedom

Nobody will know

You can walk every where

No kidnappers will appear

Thinking you are a working class

You don't have to show your luxuries

You should live quietly with ease

Live the everyday joy of living

No worry about bad guys

IRS will not monitor

There is no high radar on you

You can live the way you want

Nothing to arouse suspicion

Strong behave weak

Hide it below the radar

Enjoy the perks of living

The freedom of joy and smile

the sandakan man

 

The Sandakan man

Still wants to stay in politics

He has lost his credibility

When he turned frog

His greed of power

He couldn't wait to arrive

Lured by the Old Man

His success was shortlived

He will not find success now

The frog tag will follow him

He can't appeal to the voters

His trust has gone for good

Now involved with the moos

Nothing will come out good

He has already lost his ground

He better doesn't contest

The Sandakan man

The police should have reopened his case

One party admitted he was with him

Yet nothing is charged till today

the phobia on incidents

 

The beige dog on the road

Walking sniffing feeling free

Without looking where he is going

A car driver knocks on its hind leg

Walking 3 legged

The wife blames her husband

He takes the dog to the vet

Get it bandaged

The dog keeps quiet

As cool as the wind blow

Only the wife will nag her husband

Without roping the dog

Like us on the hand-phones

Busy talking without looking

Some have fallen into manholes

Breaking their legs to show

Even traffic on junctions

They don't look ahead

Eyes still on the hand-phones

Accidents will knock the senses

The beige dog now recovers

The phobia will linger in his mind

Like us will remember the incidents

We don't want to repeat it again

the way forward not on race

 

The way forward

Not on race alone

It will be a defeatist attitude

Afraid to hit the wind

The nation of many colours

Spreading its lights far and wide

The nation will have climbed to the top

Because of bad politicians

These are the politicians

They will keep harping on race and religion

Everyday they will say their lies

Though they pray for their own benefits

The nation needs honest politicians

Not the ones spreading bad intentions

The police should catch those involved

Let them taste the good life in prison

One race must recognize

They need to be hardworking to succeed

They mustn't listen to the lies

Learn how to fish the rest will be history

the EPF members

 

The EPF members

Still demanding for withdrawals

Don't they realize their own folly?

When they have nothing left in the accounts?

Today they feel their loss

Borrowing many payments are due

Fighing hard to stay on board

But the under-current seems pushing

They can't live as it is

They have to realize the economic stresses

They aren't the only ones feeling the heat

The retirees too getting low too

The EPF accounts are for old age

It isn't for now when we face our problems

Sacrifices need to be made

Jobs mustn't be choosy

the smell of durians

 

The smell of durians

Floating right in the air

Some may feel the headache

Others may feel the needs

The durians on display

On the designated areas to sell

The durian addicts will not forget

They want the taste of the fruit

Durians aren't cheap now

It is expensive to taste the fruit

The durian addicts don't mind the price

They just want to eat the durians

The smell of durians

The durian addicts will smile

Some will run away

They can't hold the smell

the drivers still don't learn

 

Death on the highway

The drivers still don't learn

Speed kills; lack of concentration too

Once the drivers forget hell is the way

The highway isn't for speeding

It is for a jam free driving

Reaching destination with ease

In one piece joy the drive

But what are the drivers thinking?

Life is cheap on the highway?

We have to treasure it

Once it is lost nothing will return

Do the drivers listen?

They always think they will get away

Paying fines they feel they will be alright

They forget death stalks their lives

what will it be?

 

What will it be?

The Old Man will say

“Send me to prison?

Let me go free?”

At his old age

He doesn't care much

He only thinks of himself

The way he wants to stay relevant

Though he never says

Time isn't on his side

He should have played

his meaningful role

But he refuses to do

He wants to push for his agenda

The divide and rule mantra

He forgets the rules have changed

What will the police say?

Bring the Old Man to court?

Let him or his lawyer give reasons

Because nobody is above the law

What will it be Old Man?

Karma always work in her favour

She has all the times in the world

We have our fixed time to play our games

something not right in the wolves

 

Some wolf leaders

They don't hide their frustration

They attack the unity government

For their own hidden agenda

The possibility could be

They are supporting their opponents

Branding on their race and religion

As if it is their rights to behold

It was after GE15

Some wolf leaders signed SD

Quickly without approval

Hoping to join the wagon

But it fell flat on their faces

They couldn't stomach it

They plan their plots within

Letting it be known they are against it

They can't leave their positions

They will know they will become outcast

They will have no value but shame

As some former wolf leaders found out

Though these leaders are told to behave

Yet they will harp on it every opportunity

Even their grass-root members too

They should listen and re-evaluate their stand

These leaders only bring shame

To their own party but their own values too

When are they going to stand out?

Hold their party rules and stay relevant

the old man should face his music

 

The Old Man

Still trying to cause trouble

He should have stayed quiet

Let his last few years

Do something good for the nation

But he refuses to perform it

He still sticks to his old idea

His way isn't the best after all

Now the police will probe him

He has to face his music and the law

He needs to learn his lessons

The police should investigate him well

Let him stay in court

Answering the charges against him

He should accept his mistakes

But he refuses always blaming the Rocket

Perhaps now he can taste his medicine

Let us wait what the police will say

let them dream like mat jenin

 

The moos and crocodiles

Let them dream like Mat Jenin

We can't fault them in their minds

They can't forget the power once they had

The Federal role they can't play

They still cry of losing the game

They were nearly in the loop

But greed of power they lost it good

Now they aim for the states election

They want to create a false hope

Bewitching the voters for their own gain

The voters aren't fools seeing the corruption rise

The top leadership can't deny

The court cases will come by

The black spots to remind the voters

Don't vote for the bad leaders

They can dream like Mat Jenin

Let them feel in in their minds

We can't control the way they want to dream

We can control the reality game

let them be the Ronin

 

The wolf members

They should know the game

Jumping into a hot mud

They are nothing but a shame

When the going get tough

They should stay strong within

But we have known the wolves

They want a quick recognition

The party leaders should evaluate

The current members on the roll

It is better to let them go

If they aren't supporting the party

The voters will recognize

The traitors can't be trusted

It is best they are left aside

Let them be the Ronin

the reforms for the country

 

The reforms for the country

It can't be done within a year

The deep rooted problems

Happened decades ago

All policies must geared

Not to a particular race

It should be on the whole

Everyone should benefit

One more thing too

The corruption cuts deep within

The evil breeds within the ranks

Even a religious party will try to satisfy it

Money is the root of evil

But we can't blame money for it

It is ourselves falling into its trap

We are too greedy to get rich quickly

The reforms take time

The dust and footprints

It takes a strong will to finish it

The deep rooted evil will stay awhile longer

Anwar must find ways to break the chains

 

The nation is still a long way

Playing catch up with Singapore

The current politics will not bring us there

Because Anwar has to breakdown the structures

Will he dare to spook the Malays?

The good ones migrate overseas

They can't stand the band of extremists

Who are doing for their own benefits

As a Renaissance Man on the go

Anwar must find ways to break the chains

It is over 6 decades chained to a belief

Anwar was part of the food suppliers

He knows what he can do

Still he must be brave to break the chains

The nation can't be divided by race and religion

We will have change our ways to beat Singapore

Our currency and development

We can't stand close to Singapore

We need to cultivate the challenging habits

Why Singapore progress so well ahead

Everything mustn't be on race and religion

The nation will not see her progress quickly

She will find herself not in the upper chart

As it is she will suffer on poor policies

lucy of the north

 

Lucy of the North

Spewing his unworthy words

He has nothing to do

Trying to change history instead

He better reads the Constitution

Penang is a state by itself

Forming the Federation of Malaya

There is nothing Lucy can do

Siam gave the Northern states away

To the British government decades ago

These are the problematic states

Siam didn't want to manage

So what is Lucy trying to say?

There is nothing in law he could claim

He simply wants to cause trouble

The police should catch him now

Penag MP lodges police report

The IGP shouldn't stay quiet

Catch Lucy of the North

He only brings shame in politics

the fear of losing

 

Companies close operations

The workers will suffer in return

The fear of losing jobs

The fear of losing confidence

Companies don't owe any one

It gives opportunity to be employed

When the companies close shop

The workers will have to take the salt

There is no use crying

Other countries offering better deals

We have our mininum wage law

The cost of doing business will be high

As we gear for developing status

We are bound to lose companies

The outlook will be better though pain short term

The nation needs to progress in high status

the hungry ginger male cat

 

The ginger male cat

Walk around at the stalls

Looking haggard and hungry

Maybe he was thrown away

He has a soft meow

Calling for food at the tables

Some will throw food to him

Others will ignore the hungry cat

At times he sleeps

Ears listening for footsteps

He will jump up quickly

Staying alert and eyes roam

The ginger male cat

He has been around sometimes

He will walk some distance

Looking for food to satisfy his hunger

When we are in this predicament

We must not be choosy to find employment

Fill up the hungry stomach first

Find alternative when we are full

MNCs leaving

 

MNCs leaving

There is nothing to worry

These companies have their rights

No government can stop it

Companies are profit driven

The CEOs will find nations to exploit

Maybe our costs of doing business

It has jumped on the minimum ceiling

These companies have options

The CEOs will find the best to operate

There is no need to cry on the spill milk

There are companies highly interested to arrive

Just like the food business enterprise

One closes a few will start to emerge

These operators will find they have a place

Believing they can make the cut

Though jobs will be lost

The unemployment rate will rise

It is a short term headache

The nest will build and explore

moo credibility gone

 

The Moo

Time he realizes his fall

There is the road to jail

He better prepares his case

He tries his way in court

The charges he wants it to be dropped

Because he needs the cash for states election

He can't afford not to contest

But he should understand

His credibility is gone

Banking on his own race

He can't win for his party

No money no way to win

Though his party leaders will hit on race and religion

The voters aren't fools now

They heard the cases they aren't blind

a stateless child

 

A stateless child

It isn't his sin to be born

In an intimacy gone wrong

Out to the world

He isn't welcome at all

The long road to gain his rights

The government refuses to allow

The Constitutional rights to belong

Even through the courts of law

A stateless child can't find his way

Back to the main stream of life

A stateless child

The years will be a tough life

He is a no where person

No parents no rights but only hope

An NGO will fight for his rights
