When you go on board a lonely club

It’s like going to a biggest buffet

ever held in Singapura

There are hundreds of delicious courses

from all over the world

Please take your plate and choose the delicacies

you so dearly love

Whatever you find repulsive

you don’t have to spit on them

Just enjoy eating what you want

and then go off quietly

But be thankful to those who made

this occasion possible

In some parts of the world,

you don’t enjoy this sort of peace

Your two balls can be blown off

at any time of the day

Do I need to elaborate?

You may hang on and look around

for the potential partner

you always wish right inside your heart

Find an excuse, talk to her

pull out your business card and offer it to her

It doesn’t matter if she leaves it

on the table or dumps it

into the closest dustbin

because by then you would have

learned something new

In Singapura, we men are still the hunters!

In the process of hunting,

in this jungle of love

It’s natural a few would be injured

We’re very lucky

the casualty rate is still negligible.

But the wounds are extremely painful

maybe more painful than

a broken head, arm or leg ?

The weak ones killed themselves.

the somehow stronger ones still go mad

the cowards never fall in love !

because they’re forever kiasu.

If you don't eat pork, it doesn't mean you must kill all the pigs on this planet. Do I need to elaborate?
