Singapore Lyrics
One, two, three, four!
Stroke 1 'cause he sprayed a car
They say give him the cane
Sovereignity always goes too far
And causes too much pain
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
Stroke 2 'cause his hair's too long
Like Jesus nailed to wood
It's obvious that this is wrong
And it does no good
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
Stroke 3 'cause he chewed some gum
And left it on the ground
This struck me as really dumb
There's still some brutes around
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
Thinkin' of the other nine hundred and ninety nine
I'm sorry it had to happen but there will come a time
For the other nine hundred and ninety nine
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
They left him with a scar
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
You know who you are
"If the future looks like anything, it looks like Singapore
There are no homeless, there are no poor"
"It's like Disneyland with the death penalty"
They say give him the cane
Sovereignity always goes too far
And causes too much pain
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
Like Jesus nailed to wood
It's obvious that this is wrong
And it does no good
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
And left it on the ground
This struck me as really dumb
There's still some brutes around
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
I'm sorry it had to happen but there will come a time
For the other nine hundred and ninety nine
They beat him 'till he's raw
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
Don't do it no more
They left him with a scar
Stroke 4 live from Singapore
You know who you are
There are no homeless, there are no poor"
