Anwar this, Anwar that, BN is such a pussycat

But for the rest of us, it's just too bad
Caught in the middle, what can we do?
I'm sure everyone is frustrated too.

Ten years forward and it has come one full round
economy, sodomy, injustice- we're spiralling to the ground
the principle of 'we reap what we sow'
will spare no one be it friend or foe.

I pray 10 years later my children won't say
"Mummy mummy, why have we become this way,
why have all my friends gone to Australia
why do they say democracy is a failure?"

On and on we point our fingers
But we won't allow our children to be teachers
to teach the values that matter in life
so that the next generation will not live in strife.

On and on we accuse our fellow men
But we can't be united to take a stand
We persist in our perceptions of race and religion
and forget all that is essentially human.

On and on we talk about 'if only'
But we rather not get our hands dirty
We think of our comfort and our money
We run and leave others to the fate of man's folly.

So, on and on we will spiral to the ground
In another 10 years, it will come one full round
If we don't wake up to the principle of 'we reap what we sow'
It will spare no one- be it friend or foe.
