THE SONG OF HONGKONG.
(With "Apologies to G.K.C.)
The song of the moaning of Hongkong is a hungry song and &
thirsty song.
The work of the Food and Liquor Control will come up at the
Judgment Day..
The Song of Your food will cost you more" has never been
sung as a Victory Song,
And the gayest things in Hongkong are everything else but
gay.
But who shall give us a Cheap Food Song,
Or a Cheap Drink Song, or a Cheap House Song
Fit for those who the burden have borne
While the World bas spilt blood so red ?...,
Wake them up and bring them out;
Then I will give you a rollicking song.
A song of Food and a song of Wine,
And a cheap roof over my head.
*
The long of the birth of the Food Control is a miserable song
and a horrid song:
The song of the pangs of Hunger and Thirst is part of the
Bong of Hongkong.
The song of the Land of Fragrant Streams" is to me a perfect-
ly rotten song,
•
And the song of the fat-bellied Profiteer is a song that cart
But who will give us a sensible song-
be sung.
An easy song-not a Profiting Song.
Fit for you and fit for me:
Who desire to live while we strive'?
But the song of the smiling Compradore is just an
patrid song
And the song of the hard-worked Food Control
Will damn your soul alive.
