Singapore National Day

Singapore National Day 

Singapore's national flags hanging bright,

A sea of red and white under the sunny sky. 

As nation turns fifty-nine,

Citizens murmur, "Are we doing fine?"

Singapore belongs to the citizens, 

Not to the dirty PAP's dozens. 

In this national day's parade, 

They shamelessly descent facing people in the esplanade. 

Leaders once held in high esteem,

Now citizens face a wakeup dream.

Promising much, delivering less,

Citizens left in great distress.

Millionaires welcomed with open hands,

Buy up properties of well known brand. 

While locals struggle to find space to build a home,

Can only find something in a distance zone. 

Ministers care not citizen's plight, 

Cause their pockets line with citizens' supply. 

They live in bungalows with land aplenty, 

While many citizens homes are empty. 

They travel in luxury cars, 

With bodyguards not too far.

Unsatisfied with their own landed homes, 

They choose government's good class bungalow with space to roam.

Citizens were disquiet over this act,

But CPIB declared no wrong detect. 

Knowing who was involved, 

Would they dare to offend their boss?

As we entry 59th year,

Can citizen's eyes be clear. 

In the coming general election, 

Can citizen vote with a clear perception. 

We need more opposition in parliament, 

To represent people's arguments. 

Signal to the PAP,

Their "good governance" we disagree. 

As fireworks paint the night sky grand,

May justice take a stand.

In this tiny island's heart,

Every citizen must play their part.

With dreams of fairness, voices ring clear,

Singapore's future, we hold dear.

Together we'll strive, hand in hand,

To build a truly democratic land.

A land where speech are freely expressed, 

And local media are less suppress.

As we sing our National Day's song,

Reducing PAP's power can't be wrong.
