A Little Tribute for Singaporean Boys
Posted by Roger A. Tetrahart at 23:30
Dick Lee has a better talent at creating funny and interesting songs than me, relating to all Singaporean on all levels. Love "Fried Rice Paradise" and "Mustapha". So here's a little tribute video, enjoy.
Hossan Leong, truly named "Singaporean Boy" has his own songs too. Even giving a "concert" at Esplanade. Not going to watch, but here's probably how good it's gonna be. :)

Addiction in the 1st Degree
Posted by Roger A. Tetrahart at 23:30
(Bananarama's "Love in the 1st Degree")
Last night I was dreaming,
I was high on a pack of shisah.
When I woke up, I was screaming,
Calling out your name... WO-OH-OH~
And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me. (put the blame on me~)
They want to drink from my ume!
They want to smoke my weed!
Only you can set me free,
Cause I'm guilty, guilty as a drug addict!
C'mon, Whiskey, can't you see,
I said accused~ of smoke in the 1st degree~
Guilty~ of smoke in the 1st degree~
Some days, I believe that
I'm too high from liquor too-o.
Unchain my heart you're keeping,
Let Shisah burn anew! WO-OH-*HIC*
The hours pass so slowly,
Since you've had a drink or two. (had a drink or two~)
I can see you are lonely,
Won't you join me too~
Only you can set me free,
Cause I'm guilty, guilty as a drunken bee!
C'mon, Marijuana, please!
I am accused~ I'm drunk in the 1st degree~
Guilty~ I'm drunk in the 1st degree~
Smoking in mirth...
Drinking, and laughing...
Smoking in mirth...
Drinking, and laughing...
Guilty!
Addicted without reprieve...
And the judge and the jury,
They all took my loves from me...
They're all drunk from my ume!
They've consumed all my weed!
Only you can set me free,
Roger x Hana - my BL imageries!
Rain of weed please rain on me!
Oh yes abuse~ my smoke in the 1st degree~
Only you can set me free,
Alcoholies~ gin, rum, spirits and whiskeys!
C'mon, buy me drinks for me~
Oh yes amused~ I'm drunk in the 1st degree~
(repeat till fade)

Not Yours For The Picking
Posted by Roger A. Tetrahart at 23:16
In the midst of groves, I met a soul,
Held a pretty apple gold.
A bite had he took, a third was shoved,
Leaving two third hurtful gold.
"Why did you try?" to him I told,
This he replied, morosed,
"I wasn't smart enough to know.
Let me make the missing grow."
Second perchance, I re-met this ghoul,
With the same apple gold.
Another bite he had took, two third had dove,
Leaving the last third alone.
"Why did you try?" to which he croaked,
Voices that guilt had rode,
"I wasn't wise enough to know.
Let me replace the empty cove."
Alas, it ends, when I had met this troll,
No longer with an apple gold.
The last part tore, and it had closed
The only chance to grow.
"Why did you do?!" I barked, I scolded,
To the endless tears he rolled.
"I thought that I had to let it go,
In my hands it couldn't grow..."
"So listen to me," this truth I told,
"This apple wasn't yours for picking.... No,
It has to be free, not trapped in gloves.
Move on, move on, and throw."
I resumed the path of golden groves,
Where it grew
Gold Cherries, Berries,
Sweet strawberries,
and the boldest Blackcurrants,
Pears, Pomegranate,
Melons, Jacks and Greens,
Dragons and Passions....... although....
Looking back, not one could come close
To the core he couldn't let go.

If Tomorrow Never Comes
Posted by Roger A. Tetrahart at 04:48
26 July 2008
If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would videotape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming, you would know I do.
If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance to make everything right.
There will always be another day to say our "I love you's",
And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget,
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day,
That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear,
Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
