Go-ngo (once upon a tune)


Dahil gobyerno ang nagpasimula
Imbes mapabuti lalong lumala
Minsa'y iniisip ko, ano kaya
Mas mabuting may gobyerno o wala

Halalan ay kay mahal
Kung nais mong mahalal
Isama sa application
Alyas Vilma, Nora at Sharon

Bahay kubo nang tumakbo
Ay naging palasyo nang nakaupo
Inom at sugal, sigarilyo't babae
Libreng personal na grocery

Bahay tubo, Malakanyang
Ang negosyo roon ay sarisari
Experts, consultants, advisers at media
Sa palibotlibot ay maraming tanga

Sampung mga daliri, panay malilikot
Nangangalabit, nandidikta at nangungurakot
Madudungis na ngipin ng pulitiko
Luho, bisyo, pati tinga pera ng publiko

Kandidatong bobo, lumipad sa langit
Di ko na nakita buhat nang ma-elect
Sayang ang boto kong mura lang ang benta
Nag-enjoy pa sana doon sa artista

My nephew, my niece, my brother and sis
My nephew, my niece, my brother and sis
My nephew, my niece, my brother and sis
Are all political appointees

Doon po sa amin, libreng pagamutan
Alay ni Congressman sa may kapansanan
Nabingi ang bulag, nabulag ang pipi
Napipi ang pilay, napilay ang bingi

Waldas na hands, gastos left and right
Public servant na very bright
Cheat them softly, one two three
Na-wantutri ang botante

Dollar, dollar how I squander
From one country to another
Travel here, travel there
With my relatives and my dear

Kapag ang taongbayan
Ay may problema
Dalawang tenga, dalawang mata
Laging nakasara

Walang kahiraphirap
Kamay at paa
Dilang maliit nagsasabing
Ganda ng rekord niya

***

Dahil NGO ang nagpasimula
Ang mga reports nagkawalawala
Pagkatapos ng isang buong taon
Paplanuhin ang naplano na noon

Magmiting ay di biro
Maghapong nakaupo
Pupusta ako ng sampu
Mas marami ang bangku

Kung kailan nagmimiting
Ay saka kumakain
Kung kailan kumakain
Ay saka nagmimiting

Napadpad kung saan
Di dapat pag-usapan
Napagkasunduan
Na magmiting na naman

One hour, two hours nang nang-iindyan
Four hours, five hours nang nang-iindyan
Seven hours, eight hours nang nang-iindyan
Natrapik na naman
(kasi may rally, pare...)

Nagrally sa Mendiola
Sanlibo ang magpunta
Nag magtalumpati na
Sasampu ang natira

Nagrally, nagrally
Ang iba't ibang bloke
Ang isyu ng rally
Sino ang mas marami

Paano linawin, paano susuriin
Paano lagumin, paano susulatin
Hirap himayin, kayhirap tumbukin
Pero magaling gumawa ng acronym

Gawa ng gawa ng proposal
Sanay na sanay sa refusal
Damidaming gusto, damidaming konsepto
Di pa nabuo ay mayron nang bago

There was a farmers' joint program
Apir ang dalawang grupo
GO-NGO, GO-NGO, GO-NGO
Nag disappear ang pondo

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
