HAW PAR VILLA
Come visit me in Singapore
There’s something here you’ve got to see
A twisted dark amusement park
Steeped in Chinese mythology
Exotic and decayed
Let me show you the way
to Haw Par Villa
They built it 80 years ago
It’s fallen on hard times since then
Pagodas stand in disrepair
Half Disneyland, half opium den
Let’s go before it’s gone
Come smell the Tiger Balm
At Haw Par Villa
Follow me and don’t be skeered
Ain’t it wonderful and weird?
MonkeyGods and temple bells
Pretty girls and wishing wells
Mermaids popping outta shells
With sexy smiles, it’s wet and wild
Enter the ten courts of hell
Where sinners get their just desserts
Measured once and severed twice
Sliced and diced , That’s gotta hurt
The kids all think it’s cool
It’s more torturous than school
At Haw Par Villa
Hold tight to your mother’s hand
It’s one creepy Candyland
There’s animals of every sort
A randy pig in jocky shorts
Gropes a mouse with clumsy force
While rats with guns, have all the fun
I can’t explain what draws me here
Or why I can’t resist it
This peek inside our mortal soul
Is beautiful and twisted
So fancifuland strange
It’s magically deranged
At Haw Par Villa
It’s too freaky to be true
Sometimes I don’t have a clue
What is going on? But I still play along
Cus it’s my kinda wrong
At Haw Par Villa
