One-Person Loneliness Two-Person Fault - 一个人的寂寞两个人的错
Click for Youtube video:
Here's the somewhat literal translation of this once popular song. ;-)
一个人的寂寞两个人的错
One-Person Loneliness Two-Person Fault
说好了一起走
风雨相伴不回头
爱你我愿意去等候
那怕再过几年秋
Say aledy we together go
Wind rain come we will not siam
Think of your big dick so I wait
Wait until CB drop you're never at gate
为爱情孤军奋斗
抛开世俗的信守
相信真爱天长地久
到最后却一无所有
Your love I alone fight
Discarding caution suspecting scam in sight
Thot love will last like day long earth old
One GE gone and you still no show
一个人的寂寞两个人的错
爱她为何还要选择我
注定没结果还许下的承诺
让我深深陷入感情漩涡
One-person loneliness two-person fault
Love another and me you conveniently forgot?
Is it backside itchy or lanjiao jio?
Alas, why I scratch and get hooked!
一个人的寂寞两个人的错
分手虽然是我先来说
又耐何躲的过心痛的折磨
这么多年生活改变却依然难过
One-person loneliness two-person fault
Break-up I say first but you never nod
Now I kaobeh kaobu each night to cucumber
Tried a volleyball but better with vegetable
为爱情孤军奋斗
抛开世俗的信守
相信真爱天长地久
到最后却一无所有
Your love alone I fight
Macham like Speaker's Corner shouting my rights
Thot love last long long like ABBA song
What All Is Said And Done, you're gone
一个人的寂寞两个人的错
爱她为何还要选择我
注定没结果还许下的承诺
让我深深陷入感情漩涡
Someone litter whole block fault
Step outside kenna hit by chopping block
Kaneenabeh see-liao boh nang zai
Close door cry-cry over kopi-O sui dai
<Bonus lyrics>
Stupid me sompah(x2) love forever
Like govt say give back CPF if ever
Got meh? Hiaz, day long earth old
All I get is the emptiness of one big hole
One-person loneliness Internet fault
I hope Interpol find and have you caught
Put back the thousands I TT-ed over
For a dumb locket with a four-leaf clover
One-person loneliness Alzheimers fault
Potting plants, walking dogs
Or did I just walk the plant, potted the dog?
Do me a favour give me an euthansia shot
*Suck (softly)
I mean, Fuck! (surely)
One-person loneliness two-person fault
Kaneenabeh don't let me catch that bloody sod... (fade)

Your Perfume is Poison - 香水有毒
Youtube video
Your Perfume is Poison
- 香水有毒
- sung by Hu Yang-Lin- translated *parody lyrics by TC Lai
Your perfume is poison
Make my tits hard for no reason
Make me cream way down south
And desirous of something in my mouth
Your perfume is poison
Chasing bedbugs onto my pillow
I dream of you as I stupidly scratch
Waking up later to a big bald patch
Your perfume is poison
Lingering over where you've been
And I know you have sinned
Judging by tissues you leave by the sink
Your perfume is poison
Making our neighour dog bark
Getting her all bothered and in heat
And it's not just the four-legged bitch
Your perfume is poison
It has oh--so tainted my nose
I can't even smell my own fart
Can only tell when folks edge apart
Your perfume is poison
No need to get me at "hello"
You got me at first whiff (and sniff)
And now I'm like mourner attached to grief
Your perfume is poison
How am I supposed to let go?
Like totally kenna led by the nose
A morning zombie to coffee and toast
Your perfume is poison
Is there no antidote?
Am I forever tagged your slave
Like that simi Anatehsai gohchap shades
Your perfume is poison
Don't think I will know any better
Take me, take me please
And put me out of my writhing misery
Your perfume is poison
Now my brother wants to know
"Sis, never see you like this before,"
"Can he buy me some from whatever store?"
Your perfume is poison
Is what I tell my brother
It will make even grandmas stalk you
And bak-chew tak star with superglue
Your perfume is poison
The only way to get out is to leave
Buy a one-way ticket to Timbuktu
Find work in some smelly safari zoo
Your perfume is poison
Working thru quantum entanglement
Crossing space-time and orbital ground
You feeling very up, I feeling very down
Your perfume is poison
The only hope is that you drown
In a vat full of wet concrete
And put away like Fukushima radioactive shit
Your perfume is poison
And I'm creaming once again.... (fade)

Tsai Chin - A Lover's Tears (parody) - 情人的眼淚
The song:
Here's my lyric parody of Tsai Chin's Lover's Tears. Enjoy!
A Lover's Tears (Ironic)
- 情人的眼淚
- sung by Tsai Chin
- 情人的眼淚
- sung by Tsai Chin
- translated by TC Lai
My lover boy he took my eye
He took my eye
My lover boy he took my eye
He made me cry
And now I cry without my eye
Without my eye I cannot cry
My lover boy he took my eye
So glass eye now I must buy
He took my eye
My lover boy he took my eye
He made me cry
And now I cry without my eye
Without my eye I cannot cry
My lover boy he took my eye
So glass eye now I must buy
My lover boy he took my sigh
He took my sigh
He took it whilst he was
Rubbing my thigh
I burp when I should sigh
My lover boy he took my sigh
Without a sigh
Heck, where's my sex life?
He took my sigh
He took it whilst he was
Rubbing my thigh
I burp when I should sigh
My lover boy he took my sigh
Without a sigh
Heck, where's my sex life?
Oh, how cruel is he
Oh, how patient must I be
Should I lop off a ear
To be his dear?
Oh, how patient must I be
Should I lop off a ear
To be his dear?
Oh crap is this love
Is this love
Like Juliet poison Romeo
Or Ms Piggy hitting Kermit
Or Christian whipping
Anastasia "ka-chern-jio"
Is this love
Like Juliet poison Romeo
Or Ms Piggy hitting Kermit
Or Christian whipping
Anastasia "ka-chern-jio"
My lover boy he took my dye
He took my dye
The dye I use on my hair
So younger men would care
And so now I without an eye
And not so much a sigh
And without my dye
Young men would say bye bye
He took my dye
The dye I use on my hair
So younger men would care
And so now I without an eye
And not so much a sigh
And without my dye
Young men would say bye bye
And me without a sigh
Young men do not want to try
Young men do not want to try
And without a physical eye
I'm always buzzed by a fly
I'm always buzzed by a fly
Buzzed by a fly....(fade)

The One Pan Wonder (Revisited)
- TC Lai retouched 2 May 2018
(original date of composition must be some years back!)
In the Land of Odour,
where a mighty flatulence had soured
Out came orcs and goblins from their lair
Into a better smelling place called the Shy-air
There lived the One Pan Bearer
who now looked a lot sicker
He had consumed a can of doubtful beans
His face a terrible sheen of pigeon-shit green
Whence upon the door came a knock
"Hey Prodo, it's me, Dandruff the Dork!
Or Dork "the Sort" who is wise and all
A wizard who still fiddled under his overalls
"Say, I have here a library book
Tells of your One Pan Wonder and a Martha cook
says it can indeed summon the deadliest arts
Much better than that Isengard fella, Cuisinart
"Ooh, Old Cui panned up something not quite swell
Gave me the runs from Bree to Rivendell
"Even The Nine Wraiths gave up on the scent
I must admit I farted out quite the stench
But, oh well, let's go find that larder room
Whence once they forged the One Pan at Mount Doom
"For things are finally afoot
Folks are hawking hosin sauce to chinchalok
Orcs and goblins robbing foodies along the way
I tell you, things are getting sibeh sway
"If we do not act LIKE NOW
Souron "the Foul Mouth chef" will scowl
And huff and puff he will
Send up oven flames from that biggen' hill
"And heat up this One Pan Wonder
A non-stick, ceramic-coated killer
"And sift and flap and he'll be a "ya-ya" king
All of us will become his spellbound underlings
And be served makan from his Kitchen's Hell
Until stomachs are upset, minds become swill
"And our desire for fab food bid bye-bye
Gone to the Grey Havens like those Eldar guys
"So quick, come with me on this journey
Across the clumpy Milkwoods to Michelin Bree
Where a stranger of a ranger called A'Hawthorn
Is sharpening his knife and removing feet corn
"See, he's walked a thousand miles hungrily
Touting Makansutra's new spiritual journey
So he could return to his Condo Land a wise king
Able to instruct his Pinoy maid exotic foodie things
"But not until tested he is with that evil rounded wonder
That One Pan non-stick that's nothing but trouble
For recipes are no good if you are under its spell
That owning that One Pan will surely make food sell
"Did not the old songs sing?
That sumptuous meals take practice to wring
Every bit of taste and flavour
To take one's palate to a place of splendour!
"So Prodo, hurry up and pack
We from here must leave like thunder crack
And Pantwise Greedy we will bring
For he who is now outside the window listening
"Pantwise you fool!
Words of the One Pan Wonder is not cool
Say you deny all that's been heard
That, that...old-style cooking is worth singeing a beard
"A roaring fire, an iron skillet
Is all a chef needs to muster up
What your grandmother fed your mother
And your mother is feeding you and your brother!
"Yes, yes, Dandruff the Dork
I swear I swear I'd never heard your crock
About that verily Ein-Pan-Wunder
That seems to make meals so much easier
"I swear I'll stick to Prodo
Like an old iron skillet to sizzling bacon
And never leave his side
Just like Jack and Ennis in Brokeback Mountain
"Hey, hey Pantwise
Keep him in your pants if you must
As long as he is far far away
From Souron's Doom and Lust
And so with that and a thunder clap
Dandruff, Prodo and Pantwise left
And of course they did bring along
Merrycock and Peepen so we could all...
Some day...
Turn their adventure into a One Pan Wonder song
The end
(A story that grew very much in the telling! Haha....Thanks to Matt Tan of SBM for reminding of this silly ditty done on a whim. ;-))

I Remember...
I am happy she is found
But finding doesn't mean meeting
I am terrible when profound
Saying things I don't really mean
I am seldom is the clown
Perhaps one day, I'll come around
I am cranky when down
So you better not hang around
I am here but not around
I much prefer to hang about town
I am senior and not sound
That is what they keep telling me
I am not yet in the ground
And still happy she is found
The end. By TC Lai

Pine Ning
I have a love
She is far away
I have a love
She burns yet very near
I have a love
I can't get to
I have a love
I can only warm inside
There is a love
That sits away
There is a love
I imagine every day
There is a love
But what will she say?
There is a love
And will she slip away?
Love is love
No matter where
Love is love
No one can say
Love is love
Coz I deem it so
Love is love
Coz you made me so
The end. - By TC Lai

Poem For An Old Love
To my darling:
When the love has grown old
And ardent kissing has stopped
What is there left to say?
When misshapened bodies in bed
Make spooning awkward
What is there left to say?
When a touch of the hair
Feels coarse and strange
What is there left to say?
When the starlight in our eyes
Has faded and dimmed
What is there left to say?
There's plenty I want to say
And I will say it with a hug
A hug that's long and silent
A hug that burns with the
warmth of my love unsaid.
For today and perhaps....
Till the next bad fart in bed.
- Much love (and advance apologies accepted!)
