Boys turned 18 must go to ARMY for the tour of duty
  After that we may continue our Studies
  The girls can just sit back, relax, and watch TV
  They come to this world only to “lim kopi, kway jit chee
  No one lives on free meals or depends on CHARITY

  I want to take up IT, but I had no money to go to University or Poly
  So I went to work at FACTORY
  Working hard to earn a little lousy SALARY
  After CPF and INCOME TAX, I have just enough money to buy ROTI and ride in MRT.

  My bosses show me no SYMPATHY
  Mumbling over my shoulder daily: “HURRY, HURRY and HURRY !”
  Accusing me of always trying to get MC
  But my sickness was due to over stretch OT
  Going home after midnight by TAXI
  And they pay me only bus fee

  My colleague likes me because of my honesty and can easily bully
  They said I don’t know how to carry.
  I Park-Tor and became STEADY
  Finally had to MARRY
  Because gahment gave baby bonus MONEY
 

  I lost money holding Wedding Dinner PARTY
  Cheeky friends donating only cheap PANTY
  After marriage, nothing was EASY

  In one year, I became DADDY
  I can’t support my family and our BABY
  Being tied down for life to repay 2 rooms HDB and rising monthly
  utilities to PUB
  My bank account has NO MONEY
  POSB balance is almost EMPTY
  DBS wants to charge me EXTRA FEE
  Insisting that “Nothing is FREE!”

  So I moonlight as KARANG GUNI
  Many times I want to jump MRT
  But that is not EASY
  My wife cries: “Who is going to support me and our BABY?”
  So I can’t MATI

  I went to seek assis tan ce from the MP
  His reply was simple and easy
  “Vote for me, vote for me, vote for me”.
  He never tells me any convincing Policy.

  How to help the poor with more GST?

  Why I cannot have pay increase but they can have increase?
  Before, my MP said “Vote for me, we give you sweeties”.
  Now, they want to increase salary, because “You voted me”..
 

  They claim they made good economy for our country.
  They benchmark themselves using GDP.
  They said, “To get the best man, you have to pay high fee”
  otherwise, they will join MNC. /
  And all your ‘char bor’ become maids in other COUNTRY.

  Next will be the GST.
  My boss say “no” to increase in salary,

  It’s really make me worry.
  Our Health Ministry said let GP set their consultation fee.
  If the GP charges high fee, don’t let them see.
  No money, how can healthy
  If fall sick, can only mati
  In hospital, can afford Class C.
  I don’t mind all nurses are aunty,
  But only one doctor to see
  No money for operation, I Tan Si.
