verse: punk

Bum, then they gabe him sum pom-pom.. Pom-poms?
He is the baby king, so pom-pom, pom-poms.
He wants to be kambing but pom-pom, pom-poms
Nung high school magaling pero pom-pom pom-pom, gutom gutom, singhot ilong
Ngayong matanda na, hindi na kaya
So puro drama!

Tara Na

Panay ang lingon at daplis tingin
Pero puro keme pa ang iyong dating
Merong gustong gawin mamaya sa lilim
Halika nga dito sa aking piling

Tara na
Tara na

Huwag mahiya at bumulong
Napapalapit na ang pasko
Tayo’y magbigayan ng regalo
Doon sa silid tayo’y magsalo

Tara na
Kung ayaw, di huwag
Tara na
Kung ayaw, next time na lang

Ikaw dapat ang mauna
Di pwedeng sa’kin lahat ang gawa
Kung hindi, mahirap na
Mahirap tumindig sa wala

Tara na
Kung ayaw, di huwag
Tara na
Ayaw mo e, di huwag

Tara na
Akala ko gusto mo? Tara na!
Tara na
Sige na, ikaw na maiwan jan. Bahala ka na

How To Write A Christmas Song

Just start with just any key

I just choose the letter G

If that's 1, next you go 3

Don't do minor, we want happy

Then you go to number 4

Here's a chance to hear'em say "more!"

What is next, go one way or

Go 5-sharp or go minor

How to write a Christmas song

It’s so easy, just play along!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed

You can start with some jingle bells… like so

Next you need some chrismassy

Words that can accompany

Your new creation. Needs some love

Sing away and make the most of

Don’t forget to add some bells

It’s not key but it does help

In the end prepare to take

What you start, give your all, then make

How to write a Christmas song

It’s so easy, just play along!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed

You can start with some jingle bells… like so

Write your Christmas song!

I’ll be frank, there are no rules

Just say “Christmas,” be thankful

Be thankful that you’re alive

There’s even 1-6-4-5

Don’t say no, there’s many ways

You can sing on Christmas day

Your very first Christmas song

Next you know you’re writing more

How to write a Christmas song

It’s so easy, just play along!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed

You can start with some jingle bells… like so

Isa Lang

Handog sa’tin ng Diyos Maykapal
Para sa atin, kanyang mahal
Di na dapat mag-expekto
Ng kung anu-anong regalo

Mas masama pa kung minsan
Sarili natin ang bibigyan
Nasaan ang pasko doon
Sino ba talaga ang ‘yong poon

Isa lang
ang dahilan
Ng maligayang
kapaskuhan

Pasko kamo, Kristiyano
Kung makasamba sa politiko
Bastos, at mamamatay-tao
Magnanakaw, bumili boto

Todo pa ding ipaglalaban
Kawawa naman kaban ng bayan
Sa kanyang kapwa walang awa
Puro insulto wala nang sawa

Isa lang
ang dahilan
Ng maligayang
kapaskuhan

Nano Naan

Nano, nano, nano naan…
Nano, nano, nano naan…

Naan, na-naan, na-naan, na-naan
Naan, na-naan, na-naan, na-naan

I’m so hungry for just one piece
Of that bread pretty pretty please
You can give it to me as a gift
You can give my spirit a lift

Naan, na-naan, na-naan, na-naan
Naan, na-naan, na-naan, na-naan

Bow-wow-wow, wow-wow, wow-wow, wow-wow
Bow-wow-wow, wow-wow, wow-wow, wow-wow

Nano, nano, nano naan… Je je je je
Nano, nano, nano naan… Je jeje je ajuju ajuju ajaja ajaja shishe jaja

(To fade)

Not As Lucky

Mommy
Daddy
Babyooey

I am
Happy
this holiday
I’m with family

I know
some babies
who’re not as lucky
as me

While I’m counting gifts
They’re counting their scars
I have a roof, food and drink
While they stare at stars

Mommy
Daddy
Babyooey

It’s cooler times,
we drive around,
come home, sit by
the fire

I know
some kids
they’re wondering
if there is life

After the boom,
Homes of my friends crumblin’
Men in boots who act like goons
When will it ever end?

(Instrumental)

Mommy
Daddy
Babyooey

Maligayang Paskoooo

Lumalamig
Ang ihip
Ng hangin
Magmula sa umaga

Napa-isip
Kapiling
Aking hiling

Maligayang paskoooo….
Maligayang paskoooo….

Malayo
Ang trabaho
Maka-ipon
At maka-uwi din ako

Magkasama
Pamilya
Kumakanta

Maligayang paskoooo….
Maligayang paskoooo….

(Change beat)

Mali-mali-maligayang
Mali-mali-maligayang
Mali-mali-maligayang
Mali-mali…

Maligayang paskoooo….
(Kung kasama, pamilya, masasabi na…)
Maligayang paskoooo….
(Kumpleto, magsasalo, pasalamat…)

Balik Barya

Oy!
Oy, oy! Oy, oy, oy!

Oy!
Oy!
Oy, oy! Oy, oy, oy!

Agosto pa lang ako ay kumakayod na
Para may pang-regalo sa tangi kong sinta
Pero…

Dumating ka
Walang hiya
Mapagpanggap
Lahat na, sayo na

Lungkot pasko
Sampal sa noo
Lalaban ba’ko
Mabalik lang barya

Oy!
Oy!
Oy, oy! Oy, oy, oy!

Nang-apak ka na lang basta, nabulag sa halaga
Wala man lang pakialam s'buhay ng iba
Nung…

Dumating ka
Walang hiya
Mapagpanggap
Lahat na, sayo na

Lungkot pasko
Sampal sa noo
Lalaban ba’ko
Mabalik lang barya

Biyernes, at sabado, bukham-bibig

“TATAY, IPAPATAY NIYO!
DIYOS KO PATAWARIN NIYO AKO!!!
TATAY, IPAPATAY NIYO!!!

Gusto mo lang yung kandidato kasi kababayan mo siya
Kawawa naman kaming susunod na henerasyon
Kami ang magdurusa! Kami ang magdurusa!

Walang kwenta!!!
Walang kwenta!!!

New Wave 2023

Rubber band bracelets, I don't care

Love you for a short time, I do swear

Nobody loves me, no one dares

Be with you til the end of time, but I'm not there

Oh, my feelings for you…

Chillin is my thing but I do all

You hope that I'll catch you whenever you fall

When my buddies a-playin, you party and ball

It's just a fleeting feeling and all

Oh, my feelings for you…

You say you want to be together

That this could be forever

To that I say never

Because I have severed… us!

[Recreated lyrics; original song was from August 1994]

BERMANTSNA

Ayan na naman si Jose Mari!

Pati na din si Mariah Carey!

Malamig na ang 25 degrees!!

Pahingi ng jacket, bilis!!!!

Bermantsna! Bermantsna!

Kanta naman ni Mariah!

Gusto niya raw sa pasko'y ikaw!

At ikaw at ikaw at ikaw!

Namamasko po, Manny Pacquiao!

Bermantsna! Bermantsna!

Wala na akong masabi

Miss ko na christmas spaghetti

Tikman ko ulit fruit salad

Nawa'y tayo'y maging mapalad!

Bermantsna! Bermantsna!

Ika-una na ng setyembre!

May dekorasyon na sa SM!

Ilabas na ang mema diyan!

Magbawas ka na ng bilbil sa tiyan!

Bermantsna! Bermantsna!

Hoy!

GAMOT SA MUNDO

Di na natuto

Madaming multo

Pakialala

Ang dinanas nila

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

Oh-oh

Makasarili

Kahit magkamali

Yon pa’y paninindigan

Manhid sa kapwa

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

Oh-oh

Lalo tong lalala

Wala nang sawa

Patay ang bukas

Kung merong bukas

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

Gamot sa mundo

Inumin ninyo

girl's gone

november 1993

(Original release: https://youtu.be/ryP9nSalRAc
Punk version: https://youtu.be/P8WsBWJXh4M)

one time here
one time gone
and now forever and ever away

once was here
far from there
now wond'r'n why i don't see her today

i can't open my eyes
why she's left me
now, i do realize
my baby's shown me...
life.

always numb
when she was near
never thought i'd feel this today

now she is gone
and present are tears
if she could hear me, let her hear me say

you find the value of a person when she's gone
you find the need for someone when you're alone

Nana's Song

(YouTube audio: https://youtu.be/brF2h_YFBgk)

Hey you,

Turn on the TV

And wash my clothes

Hey you,

Make me some coffee

Clean the house

Hey you,

Cook me some food

Buy me a cigarette

Hey you,

Massage my back

Coz I love you

I love you!

It's nana’s song, all weekend long

Hey you!

Hey you,

Turn off the TV

Wash the dishes

Hey you,

Don't play outside

Study hard

Hey you,

Care for me, I'm old

Don't say no

Hey you,

Brush my hair

Coz I love you

I love you!

It's nana’s song, all weekend long

Hey you! Do this. Hey you, do that!

Hey you, hey you, you haven't broke your back!

Hey you do this, hey you do that!

Study hard, work hard, my retirement plan!

Coz I love you

I love you!

It's nana’s song, all weekend long

Hey you!
