Empire State of CRAP


Ooohh Penang...
Ooohh Penang...

Grew up in a town that is famous for laksa and char koay teow
Noise is always loud, shit drivers all around and the streets are full of holes
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name in sign boards found down on Times Square
Even if it ain’t all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams

Damn it! I'm from Penang...
Uncivilized state where dreams are being crushed
There's nothing you can do
Now you're in Penang
The drivers will drive you mad
Car lights will blind you
Let's hear it for Penang, Penang, Penang...

On Love Lane, there ain't never a curfew, drag queens 'work' so hard
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling butt, preachers needs sex too
Hail a meter-free cab, takes me down from Georgetown to the Penang Bridge
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than just a kiss...
I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams

Damn it! I'm from Penang...
Uncivilized state where dreams are being crushed
There's nothing you can do
Now you're in Penang
The drivers will drive you mad
Car lights will blind you
Let's hear it for Penang, Penang, Penang...

One hand in the air for the small island
Gay men, drag queens all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compare
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

In Penang...
Uncivilized state where dreams are being crushed
There's nothing you can do
Now you're in Penang
The drivers will drive you mad
Car lights will blind you
Let's hear it for Penang, Penang, Penang...

PS: I LOVE PENANG!
