chorus

friend rice paradise
nasi goreng very nice
that's her speciality
ninety-nine varieties
fried rice paradise
"shiok"is how it's been described
booked a table?very wise
that is what i would do
spoken:(to jump the queue)

my people,my home

who are you my country?
more than celebrations and tears
more than memories put together
or the summing up of years

i see you enduring all weathers
sunshine and storms at your hearts
in your face the lines ever changing
tell the story where i have a part

as a new chapter begins
from where we have come thus far
once again may it be written
you are who we are

in you may we see ourselves
your needs,your strengths,in us
that the work for freedom and peace
is mine as much as ours

you my people ,my home
our lives defend and uphold
may the good we achieve as one nation
be shared with the world

there's no place i'd rather be

i've walkedthe streets of cairo and bombay
i've seen the neon signs on ole broadway
i've climed the eiffel tower,
the great wall in one hour,
experienced sweet and sour but that's okay.

seen hollywood,the sunsets in LA.
the londonbridge,big ben,the thames,uk
i crossed the river kwai
yet still i don't know why
i think of you each night and everyday.

there's no place i'd rather be
you'll always be a part of me
and even though i've roamed the world
it's still my home i long to see

this is my family
and my friends grew up with me
so i'll cross the skies and sail the seas
to be where i wanna be.

cos there's no place i'd rather be!
