Sayang |
|
Once upon a time there were only trees |
|
And a lion or two enjoying the breeze |
|
Then a boat arrived one sunny day |
|
And human beings were here to stay |
|
Well the king of the jungle couldn't really complain |
|
He got the whole damn island named after him |
|
And as for the lions here's news for you |
|
You can see their descendents at the Mandai Zoo |
|
The island since has come very far |
|
All thanks to the man named Utama |
|
No we couldn't forget him if we tried |
|
Eh what about Raffles (We love that guy) |
|
So here we are having so much fun |
|
Can hardly believe this was a jungle once |
|
Sometimes I can still hear the lion's roar going |
|
Singa Singa Pore |
|
One, Two sing |

Now we can explain in a little while |
|
This is not an ordinary tropical isle |
|
Everything we have has to be the best |
|
Of the fabulous East and the wonderful West |
|
Of all the things we've got that's good |
|
At the top of everybody's list is FOOD |
|
We've got prata (from Indian) |
|
Mee Pok (from Chinese) so sedap |
|
What about the ketupat (from Malays) at the Satay Club |
|
If no Chye Tow Kway (fried carrot cake) then Kai Fan (chicken rice) lor |
|
Eat till you faint so cheap some more |
|
Ya the best thing has to be the price |
|
Singapore's my Fried Rice Paradise! |
|
We can eat eat eat till we nearly drop |
|
Then we all get up and we shop shop shop |
|
And if you asked us how we rate this place |
|
We'll just say this IT'S GREAT |
|
Una, Renda, Muna |

Let's talk about work it's quite OK |
|
Life here's like a holi holiday |
|
We take things easy there's no big rush |
|
Unlike the other island north to us |
|
We work then makan watch a film |
|
Enjoying the fruits of tourism |
|
There are so plenty tourists but we loved They spending money what |
|
I know I made it when on my own |
|
I can afford a pager plus a cordless phone |
|
In my family I wish for miss Singapore |
|
And more than 2 kids |
|
Success to us just simply means |
|
That such thing as a Singapore Dreams |
|
And why you all don't want to say |
|
You just want lots of money lay... |
|
Satu, dua, Tiga |
