I shall keep this page alive by posting 1 picture ...
Can you spot me? lols. 2009. I miss Atlantic Point and the people in the picture..
As I was on my way back home in a car, I heard of this Old Town Kopitiam jingle: “Lat Tali Lat Tam Pong.” One of the traditional games that the older generation especially the 80’s babies or much elder age groups used to play since we don’t have PlayStation, Nitendo, or even Wii to entertain ourselves at that time.
I was trying to recall the whole song of my Lat Tali Lat Tam Pong version and it seems that mine was “Lai Lai Li Li Chi Tam Pong” And I continued the rest of the stanza . And to my horror, it is not as poetical as it seems to be. Let me share with you my version:
Lai Lai Li Li Chi Tam Pong…
Mak Minah Balik Kampung…
Beranak Dalam Tong…
Namanya Sotong...
Ambil lidi jolok punggung…
So corrupted! I think its Super Weird and funny at the same time!!! My version has all of the immoral values! Worst still, I was singing it when I was at the tender age of what, 6?? Who ever thought me this, confirmed polluted my innocent brain and I realized it after more then 15 years… -_-
Now tell me peeps, would you mind sharing me your version of “Lat Tali Lat Tam Pong” or even “Lai Lai Li Li Chi Tam Pong”? Cuz I really and want to hope that there are more corrupted version than mine. Please?? *innocent face.
