It Is Bloody Ridiculous
It's Bloody Ridiculous
It's bloody ridiculous....
Make no mistake, Malaysians are such a complying lot....
We complained about traffic jams, road tolls and blocks...
A nitwit politician suggested waking up early and hitting the roads...
Like any docile citizens, early this morning I was already on the road...
Decided to leave 15 minutes earlier than usual...
Expected to have a leisurely drive to arrive in office much earlier than usual....
It is bloody ridiculous...
There was heavy traffic and I was just another blockhead on the way to work...
Along the drive, there's this litany, How can this be, am I not 15 minutes early...
There should much less traffic, it is only 6.40am, where's everyone going...
It's bloody ridiculous...
So many nitwits on the road, getting up early and rushing off to work...
So many average Joes, waking up early hoping to skip the heavy traffic flow...
I'm sure given a choice many if them woukd be rather at home...
Who wants to be the bigger nitwit, following up on that suggestion from a nitwit politician...
It's bloody ridiculous...
I'm sure all us Average Joes, we would rather be fast asleep snug in our beds...
Now imagine all those casually dressed slippered millionaires...
They are well cocooned, nestled warmly in bed and snoring into the morning air...
Here I am on the road, hoping to beat the traffic jam, never mind the air...
It's bloody ridiculous...
