Singapore

We have an anthem here (for all the IGs - Indian Gang), which had the first stanza. This inspired me to continue, one day when I was thinking about it while traveling in the train

SINGAPORE

They tell me in singapore the girls are pretty fine
Some are above ninety, and the rest are below nine !
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the pay is mighty fine
They give us hundred dollars, and take back ninety nine
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the food is pretty fine
The best is bread and butter, the rest are ferment wine
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the law is mighty fine
We live in constant fear that the police might break our spine
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the buildings are pretty fine
We look at them in awe, but they're too costly to be mine
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the transport's mighty fine
You go one place to another, it takes a hell lot of time
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

They tell me in singapore the government's mighty fine
For each and every mistake, gotta pay a hefty fine
Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home

The only thing which cools me down, is that serangoon's pretty fine
I go there every weekend and have a nice dine
But still... Oh, I want to go , Ooh I want to go
Show me the way to go home
