BHASA Lyrics by Subhas

TABULA RASA

2021

We die alone my presence I didn’t elect it
So I just put my dialects in the dialectic
Electric, everybody knows I get hectic
When its subtitles on watching Sun not Netflix
Genetics, yeah, my tongue dances
Craving for a code that didn’t switch to circumstances
Yeah, and my dreams they been arrested
We end up being in the kids in the middle of the pics
Of advertisements for our own skin whitening kits
Couldn’t sing along to Orientation songs
They should retire my number at New Town and Hwa Chong

Now I got, now I got, now I got, now I got
Mandarin meandering in my mental
Sounding like an other tongue not my mother tongue
Everyone, everyone, like they do this shit for fun
Soundin’ like I got something to prove huh?

Not all skin folks are kinfolks
Not all skin folks are kinfolks
Not all skin folks are kinfolks

I hate I wrote this part in English
I hate I wrote this part in English
How to kill a mother tongue?

Mudhalil avasiyam illai yenbaargal
முதலில் அவசியமில்லை என்பார்கள்
Orey maathiri irukka
ஒரே மாதிரி இருக்க
Oru mozhi pesa
ஒரு ம ொழி பே ச
I wonder who rasa-ed the tabulus
Bodhanayum -
ப ோதனை யும் -
Varalaatrai maathidum pakkangalo
வரலாற்றை மாத்திடும் பக்கங்கள ோ
Varalaatrai marakka maathiraigalo
வரலாற்றை மறக்க மாத்திரை கள ோ
Poithaano - CMIO
ப ொய்தான ோ - CMIO
Avayil ulla araiveikkaadum
அவை யில் உள்ள அரை வே ய்க்காடும்
Harvard-il paduchu kizhuchu
Harvard-இல் படிச்சு கிழிச்சு
Language-eh azhuchu ozhuchu
Language-எ அழுச்சு ஒழுச்சு
Neethi illame nithiyum poguthu - SAP
நீதி இல்லாம நிதியும் ப ோகுது - SAP
Velaikkum veetukkum alayavidum - PAP
வே லை க்கும் வட்ீ டுக்கும் அலை யவிடும் - PAP
Parents don't decide second language based on roots but on survival
In the end -
Alangaara bommaiya
அலங்கார ப ொம்மை யா
Yellam virpanaikku
எல்லாம் விற்பனை க்கு
Talaimurayum thadumaaruthu, thadam maaruthu, thaai mozhi pesa
தலை முறை யும் தடுமாறுது தடம் மாறாது தாய் ம ொழி பே ச
When you tell someone who comes to Singapore to speak in English you are extending
Colonial rule
We are the generation who cannot speak to our grandparents
