Wah! I heard we all now got big big debate. They say future of proper English is at stake.

All because stupid singlish spoil the market, want to change now dunno whether too late.

Aiyoh! Ang mo hear us talk like that oso want to faint. Even our 'U' graduates speak like ah beng, ah seng.

Singlish is like rojak, everything throw inside anyhow mix. Got Malay, Idian, Chinese and English, can give and take.

When you dunno something is under the table or chair, you ask loud loud," Oi! Under where? Under where?"

When you see somebody behave very bad, you scold him," Aiyah! Why you so like that?"

When you ended up in a traffic jam, and got stuck, you complain," Today I Èû³µ kana very jia lat."

When you warn your kids to be careful all the way, you tell them," Careful har, you better dun pray-pray!"

When you see mooncakes with many egg yolks, you say," Wah! This type good to eat, very shiok!!

When your friend mistook your mother for your aunt, you disturb him," Alamak! Why you so blur one?"

You write like that in exam you sure die liao. Teacher mark your paper oso kee siao.

I dunno whether you agree with me or not. I just simply sharing with you my thoughts.

Singlish is like the garden weeds. You pull like mad still would not quit.

Sure got some ppl like and some ppl dun like. Singlish and English, they'll still live side by side.

Sekali our Singaporean identity oso lost until dunno go where. Even orang-utan ah meng start thinking like a polar bear.

But still muz go I.T.otherwise become swa koo, only smarter than Ah Meng at the Mandai Zoo.

Wait the whole world go I.T., we still blur as sotong, next time we all only qualified to sell laksa in Chai Chee.
