the big crooks

The big crooks

They have the means to get free

We don't hear much about them

They hide behind curtains

We only hear of runners

They are the ones always caught in the net

On paper as if the authorities have done something

The truth is the big crooks gone free

We hear of massive monies outflow

We hear of many monies leakages

But we don't hear the culprits get caught

We always hear it is under investigations

But where are the monies gone?

There is no simple answer to the fore

It is as if the golfer putts his ball

It never drops to the flag hole

The caddie looks

The golfer asks

But there is no answer

The putting green is free

the era of new

he era of new

The country wishes to go

The years of toil

Blood, sweat and tears

Bringing the nation

To the recognition she needs

Because of religious political agenda

Some party leaders want to hammer it away

Leaving the vacuum of the era of new

Going back to the centuries old

Giving the excuse without solid explanation

They just want the greed of power and control

The nation isn't for a race

The nation isn't one religion

The nation has many races

With so many religious faiths

Flourishing side by side

For the growth and harmonious living

Because of religious political agenda

The nation may face its consequences

Pushing for a law which shouldn't at the first glance

God's law belongs to God alone

The Constitution is crafted to show the way

The nation is Secular with religions free to flow

Because of greed of power and control

The people are bewildered and worried

This isn't the way to go forward

This is the way to go backwards

The toil of decades

It will go to waste

The Nation has to move ahead

Don't make the mistake

We will suffer for being fools

kick out the habits

Too much heaven

They don't realize

They want to make more

They can sleep on it

The blue ocean

Don't they see?

No matter what is said

Can they beat it?

The people must realize

Too many drugs they will not cut it

Too much heaven

They will caste away

The fools in show

The addicts in the cage

Too much heaven

Nothing will change

Wake up to reality

Kick out the habits

It isn't too late to change

The blue ocean can set sail

pas shakes the ground

Pas shakes the ground

Every one is talking

Pas heard the news

The party hits the gong

The Non-Muslim leaders

No way they will support

Under the Constitution

No hudud law to be implemented

Though it is meant for the Islamic faith

As with all laws it will creep into other faiths

With religious officials reigning in power

There is the greed to inflict sorrow and pain

As a few incidents happened already

Giving them some measures of Syariah law

These officials have crossed the boundary

Into other faiths to impose its law

Let religion stay as a private affair

Each to his God for repentance

It can't be used as a law to impose freedom

God always forgives

Now Pas gets all the attention

The gong hits higher in sound and clarity

Only Amno baru leader still struggling to find his words

What to say on his party majority Muslim members?

Pas has won

The minds of the Islamic faith

But be on the practical side of life

Who will help the sufferers of the law?

pas can dream

Pas can dream

Implementation of God's law

So the party sleeps on it

Dreaming of the day

The simple reason

Men can't judge God's law

We don't have the capacity for it

God is All-Forgiving, Compassionate and Kind

We just want to inflict sorrow and pain

What will happen to those suffered in the law?

Will State help them to live through their lives?

The State will just let them suffer and cry?

Religion can't mix with politics

The politicians can't keep a straight face

There will distrust among the men and women

Chairs changing to suit an occasion

To change the Constitution

Pas needs 148 seats for it

Pas doesn't have in its bag

It isn't about simple majority!

Pas can dream

As every living soul will

Don't dream like God

We can't be one anyway

when age is old

When age is old

The line will be grey

We don't see clearly as before

Even our minds seem to sleep

When we were young

We always thought we could

Forever stay to see

When age is old we realize

Our energy becomes low

The movements seem hard to follow

Though we try to put on better faces

When age is old we have had it

The consolation prize

When age is old

We could be leaders with fast experiences

We could rule the world

There is something good

When age is old

We have the wisdom

The young can't dispute

we are the fools

We are the fools

We never learn

We vote same party

Every time there is an election

Though reports of missing wealth

The leakages unaccounted for

The direct contracts awarded

The cronies smile to the banks

Yet we screamed for the truth

These are made to bring the party down

These leaders couldn't be lying

But AG report came and gone

Monies gone to foreign funds

Under secret accounts so it was said

The numbered accounts to hide the wealth

Where are the documents to show it is?

These are the work of opposition members

They have nothing else to do

They always want to find fault

True or false they will the noise

But we are the fools

We should have known better

The party stays too long

We should have changed it long ago

gst blue

GST blue

It will come to stay

We can cry and scratch our heads

The tax burden will pull us in

GST blue

Many will not understand

The many steps it needs to know

The business people still unsure

GST blue

Organized protests will not cut it

Saying it is a sin in Islam

The hole will open we will fall in

GST blue

The blanket tax head to toe

We can't escape its clutches

Until we wake up change the government!

this is the material world

This is the material world

There is nothing much you can do

You can't talk of spiritual well being

All around us we are influence

The wealth we dream

The money of many currencies

The stock exchanges to trade

This is the material world

Every waking hour in the mind

We think of money how to get it there

Every preacher will say

“Don't forget your spiritual journey”

What we have will be just a while

We can feel it in our hands and our minds

Once we leave this world of our times

There is nothing in it for us anymore

But this is the material world

We will fall for it no matter what it is said

We want to live the easy way

With wealth and people talk

On the sidewalk the preacher will say

“Don't forget your spiritual journey

Here lies the redemption we need”

Don't laugh at the preacher he maybe right

the leakages of money

The money tree

It never goes away

The power that be

Somehow it has gone

Every time of capital expenditures

The few hundred millions float away

It is always the middlemen involved

The cronies link to the elites

We still remember the cow's money

$250 million until today the quiet hill

The moo on the field hardly can be heard

The money tree so easy to cart away

The new jet plane

To replace the old it says

The people bracing of pocket holes

Buying a new jet without thinking clearly

Now it is reported overpaid by $109 million

Through the services of a middleman

Why can't it negotiate direct?

It is money tree for the friends?

We will wait for the biggest sink hole

The huge debts of IMDB of over $42 billion

The trail of cash flow insufficient to pay

It smells the weaknesses in running the company

The money tree

Some cronies smiling happy

They should be with money bags

The easy money so it is said

goodbye harry lee kuan yew

borrowed cnn.com

The time has come

He has closed all his doors

Put away the keys

He walked away

The nation will mourn of him

A man who transformed a tiny island

Into the best nation in Asia

With his dictatorial rule

People can like him

People can dislike him

He has his enemies

He has his friends

Now he leaves behind his legacy

Of his books, speeches and footprints

He makes Singapore rich but without inner glow

Maybe now Singapore can get back her soul?

Goodbye Sir Harry Lee Kuan Yew

You make it your own way to success

Maybe now Singapore can get back her soul

The inner glow on the island you make it prosper

we shouldn't pick the old devil anymore

What goes up

It is hard to come down

Once it stays there

It wants to enjoy the perks

The costs of goods and services

It will go up and up

No matter what campaigns are laid

Once it rises it will be hard to come down

The people have a choice

The tax burden will not go away

It is always the fall of any government

When it fails to heed the people cry

We make the wrong choice

Picking the same old party to rule

They have become arrogant and undisciplined

They want to rule forever

When the next call comes along

We must know what to do

We can't be losing our wits

It is the time to shift the framework

kick the rascals out

The flag of black

The flag of white

For the politicians

They don't tell

They only play the game

Knowing they want to win

Giving the voters the headaches

When they don't give their dues

They will give many promises

Wooing the voters with smiles and handshakes

Telling them how good they are

Throwing monies and goods

The flag of black

The flag of white

For the politicians

They close one eye

When they sit on the chairs

When they feel the power glow

They hardly remember their promises

They say hell to the voters!

When they craft laws

It is to protect their power base

Catching the critics and opponents

Telling them it is good for the nation

The flag is black

The flag is white

The voters shouldn't split

Kick the rascals come next calling

born with nothing go with emptiness

We are born with nothing

We will leave with emptiness

Don't ever think we can bring along

All our materialistic goods

In the fire we will go

If that were wishes for a few

On the ground of burial holes

Many will be buried

On the physical eyes to see

The tombstones mark the spot

Where the deceased will be remembered

Through the years until it will be forgotten

Our next phrase of life

The journey we will take

We will never know in our times

We have only to hold to faith

Our religious texts we hold

It is compiled by the learned people

Will it be a devil's work?

We will never know only live in faith

When we present our report

The only good deeds in our times

There the weight will keep us afloat

For God is always Kind, Compassionate and Forgiving

Then again we will never know

It is only our faith to hold it true

Of our lives when we are gone

In hell or heaven nobody comes back to tell

the day of our times

Rain or shine

I will still go with you

The day of our times

The sun, the moon and sunset

The reflection in the water

The light in the sky

The moments of our times

The whirring wind singing in our ears

The places may have gone

The footprints in memories

Rain or shine I will still go with you

The day of our times

The spider's web on reflection

The experiences we have been through

We will still listen to our heartbeats

Ringing in our ears

So rain or shine

I will still go with you

The day of our times

The footprints in memories

kelantan takes a step further

A lawyer says

Every state has Syariah Law

Passed by the State Assembly

But Kelantan takes a step further

It makes its own criminal charges

The Constitution is the Supreme Law

Crafted by our forefathers to govern the nation

Any Syariah Law is subservient to the Constitution

It never should be the star in our criminal law

But Kelantan takes a step further

Hudud law currently shouldn't be applied

The nation hasn't come to the junction yet

Every Islamic faith thinks it should

But deep inside who has the authority to decide?

But Kelantan takes a step further

God's law can't be decided by humans

They don't have the capacity to understand

With past incidents the religious officials can't handle it

It becomes a lord over the slaves

But Kelantan takes a step further

Every religion has its religious laws

The other faiths don't make it to be a draconian law

It lets the members decide to do good or evil

For they will face the Maker on Judgement Day

For religion is a private affair with God

But Kelantan takes a step further

The clerics want to see the suffering of the people

They don't see the value of kindness, compassion or forgiving

Taking lives or inflicting pain and sorrow isn't a way to life

Religious law leaves it to the faithfuls facing God in time

once we though he could

Once he thought he could

Challenging for the presidency

Won it he could become prime minister

Lost it he could be have been

So he didn't win

He is in the wilderness since

Thinking of his lost opportunity

He nearly made it

He did make many good speeches

Actions weren't his forth to see

It was just the words said and forgot

At one time everyone thought he could

The prime minister of the nation

The elder statesman a nation needs

But he never leaves his party where he rejoined

He was stuck on his long dream

Lucky for all of us

We saw his true colour

He supports hudud law in Kelantan

When he knew the Constitution well

Ku Li has lost his direction

No good speeches will change the perception

If he were the prime minster

The nation will become an Islamic nation

Now the Constitution stands the way

Pas is trying to make it happens

With the support of Amno baru

Pas thinks it has a chance

But MCA point the wrong direction

Why blame DAP on Pas hudud law?

DAP has stated in many public speeches

MCA never sees the elephant in the room

It is Amno baru MCA should shoot

It is its Taiko who treated them second best

MCA should have seen it coming

The elephant in the room MCA forgets

at the traffic light

At the traffic light

Stop and wait of a time

Think how life has gone by

The whir of the wind

A short reflection

Chasing dreams to no end

New ones come into play

Old ones sometimes disappear

The unsmiling faces

Eyes on the traffic light

Is that what we have to wait?

A moment reflection of our lives?

When traffic turns green

The moving traffic flowing

Sometimes a driver

He doesn't care who's behind him

He drives slowly

Talking on his hand-phones

Or he thinks he owns the road

The long queue of traffic flowing

Sometimes we know

A race may think he owns everything

Change history if he could find a reason

He doesn't realize we are one family

Where will the nation heading?

The dark shadows of our times?

When leaders lose sight of their roles

They are there by the people for the people

The gate opens

Time to return home

The quiet atmosphere

The garden of green

fishes die in the river

Fishes die in the river

It is our carelessness to blame

The polluted water flowing in

Why DOE officials never go around?

The monitoring should be routine

It is always the case when something is wrong

The DOE officials will drive in quickly

Who is the culprit?

Causing misery to the fishermen?

Causing the price of fish to go up?

Causing the dead fish smell?

It will be forgotten

Contract out to clean up the river

Scoop up the dead fishes

Life will move on as if nothing happens

we have our choices

We have our choices

When we make the wrong move

Electing the wrong set of leaders

This is how it will turn into bad dreams

They will say good things

Smiling at every public exercises

Once we are hooked to it

We are like fishes can't get away

Dangling carrots and promises

We will fall for it blindly

Letting our guards down

On the ground we fail

Look what we have

Massive huge debts

The cronies laughing to the banks

The bigots and extremists drumbeats

Yet we don't see it?

The way of our lives

We mustn't allow it to go on

Too many bites time to fight back
