I already very chin chai,
why no char bor ai
They say I kanna sai,
but my heart buei pai.
Saturday kee Mount Faber
Kuah dio couple couple
Cars liam newspaper
Kuah liao lao saliva
They say ay sai toh ay sai
bueh sai toh bueh sai
Hang cheng although pai
So I wait and wait,
For that thing call fate
Whole life bo lang date
Don't know when can mate
why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

Flint, that's in Singlish, a local mangled form of English that uses (mainly) chinese grammar, and words form various local chinese dialects, mandarin, malay, tamil and other local languages... I'll try translating, but I won't fix the grammar though.
I already very not picky,
why no women want,
They say I am like shit,
but my heart not bad.
Saturday go Mount Faber (a local lover's haunt)
See couple couple
Cars stick newspaper (on their windows... what happens behind the windows... well, up to your imagination)
See already, drool saliva
They say can means can
cannot means cannot
Economy (sic) although bad
So I wait and wait,
For that thing call fate
Whole life no one (to) date
Don't know when can mate
Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:A woman, without her man, is nothing.
A woman: without her, man is nothing.
Anyone got the lyrics to the Hokkien song lamenting army life? I believe it was by Jack Neo?

Justin, yep.
I can't figure out the first 4 lines of the last verse... can give the english translation? Then I'll figure what it is in Hokkien.

Cheers Vincent... I like the little language tricks people can play.. very cool!
Maybe it will come in useful one day, if I ever get stuck up Mount Faber

Choy..i think he means this verse la..Originally Posted by ranmasatome
literal translation..
Do army one day earn $3
Do army two days earn $6
Do amry three days earn $9
Want to call chicken still short of $1..
for the benefit of our foreign friends, "call chicken" means to hire a "professional lady"

Ok, now the last verse makes sense.
Choy, nope, only heard about that song after I left the army.
