with owers on both sides

We live here in Singapore

My elementary school used

to be at Middle Road

And when I didn't work hard in school

I would go to the temple

nearby before the exams

and pray hard at the Buddha's feet

We live here in Singapore

My cousin has just returned

from San Francisco

Like a little sparrow carrying a branch

Always returning home where it belongs

Like a sparrow carrying a branch

Always returning home where it belongs

Though I suck at studying

But like every other student

I still hoped for good results.

So my parents won't be disappointed.

But due to my lousy English

All other subjects suffered as well.

Hubby, we lost money this month again.

Don't worry. We shall prevail!

My parents love music.

My father wanted to be in a band.

My mother wanted to become a singer.

Few months ago,

they dumped all their savings

into 'Meng Chuan' (Dream Boat).

Business was ok for a while.

But as it turns out

People rather listen to themselves sing

Than listen to others.

So the business went from bad to worse.

Ma, Pa, I'm heading to school.

Good luck!

Son!

I am a young patriotic soldier!

I am filled with enthusiasm and passion!

I have an abundance of energy!

Put your trust in me, Singapore!

Prosper!

Son. Stay calm.

I think...

he's still doomed

Jiajun, what are you laughing about?

I don't understand what I am watching.

Hey, aren't you going to wish me good luck?

Score an 'A'.

Elder brother, good luck!

Hope you return with a 'D'!

'D'? You cursing me?

No, 'D' for 'Damn Good'!

Do you smell something?

It's you again!

C'mon guys! I'm stressed.

Hey look! The girls from the airport.

I think the bitchy one

is cute, how about you?

They both look the same to me.

Son, take it easy.

You're our son.

We won't look down on you for being stupid.

It's not like we need you

to take care of us anyway.

And you will inherit

'Meng Chuan' eventually.

Son...

We have a vision for tomorrow...

just believe, just believe

We have a goal for Singapore...

We can achieve

- What can we achieve with results like this?

You and me, we'll do our part

3 months later

Hello everyone!

This is a Singapore folk song

that I wrote!

Let my heart break completely!

Wow, this singer is a new low.

Even my parents won't want to be seen here.

I'm going deaf.

My eyes are bleeding.

You are behind on payments

for a few months already!

I'm so sorry. I'll pay you in a few days.

Once my business picks up I will repay you!

How can your business improve?

Your singer sounds like a cat in heat!

I'll give you 3 more days.

This joint really is the dumps.

Why don't we restart our business

in JC (Junior College) now?

Didn't we call it quits?
