9th Rabbity Day of CNY Celeb...Desi's Glad

When Desi read the NST this morning,I was happy to learn that Hosni Mobarak might finally RESIGN his presdency of EgyptAfter 30 years -- like wan stupid CM of a Malaysian state -- staying any day longer would be one day too long!. Then at 1.00PM I watched CNN, followed by CCTV, and both reported that NO, MOBARAK IS NOT RESIGNING ANY TIME SOON. Sigh, more prayers for the fighters in Egypt. Malaysia too.

Well, Malaysians hang in there, we are lucky we are still
Alive&Kicking', able still to be singin' the blues
And Waling The Line wit' Johnny Cash
Or rockin' and rollin' serenading Sweet Caroline
Wonderin' if there's some sweet melody sublime
E'en among the coarse thorns and bitter wine

You ask Desi what's this "bitter"?
I say with a wry question you don't know?
Then you should learn some Hank Wlliams' laments
Broken hearted, lonely lonseome hearted moments

Of each and everyone who once was a cowboy
Singin' in the rain
Or bathin' in the wines of pain
Cos the curtains of sweet sweet sorrows have fallen
Awe o'er you, awe o'er me,
Awe o'er Malaysians who can feel the pain
Of efforts to walk tall, all in vain

'Cos of bastardised teachers
Preachers
and Leaders
most of all

Leading the Fall,
And there's no sign of the Fireman
To douse the huge fire-ball
Swallowin'us all

So in the never-endin' Fall
I can only strum along wit'
Johhny Cash hummin'
I Walk the Line
To taste the wine
One last time
Before the Call
