MORE CHINESE PRIDE

Liu Xiang became the first Chinese/Asian in history to win men's 110m hurdles at Olympics. He oso equalled the world record of 12.91 secs, & broke the Olympic record of 12.95 secs. His winning margin the biggest since 1988. He will forever be in the Olympics record book. He oso like to sing David's Black Tangerine, kekekekekekeke. Anyway another reason I post him cos of David's song Smart, the only popsong I noe that mentioned Chinese unity. Maybe there r others but I dun noe them. Really like Smart which David wrote for Tension's first album oso called Smart. Lyrics written by David still so relevant to Chinese around the world. Esp today when I overheard woman complaining abt mainland Chinese in Singapore. Singapore has yet to win a medal of any color at the Olympics, I feel they should go & listen to David's Smart on repeat, heehee. Anyway here r the lyrics.

SMART
Voiceover: Legends told of long, long ago when from the Southern Seas appear five martial youths. They have skills surpassing all their rivals, and they are looking for intelligence.

From day to night all you talk about is how smart you are,
In your eyes you are incomparable.
Eating, hanging out, learning, watching, all these you are skilled,
Calling yourself a prodigy, a natural taskmaster.
Actually we are always learning till we are old,
Better to understand your own limitations,
Don't set yourself too high and mighty,
Or you will loose all your friends.
Even if you have the winning hand,
It doesn't mean you are the world's best.
This is my advice to you,
Hope that you will comprehend,
Smart, smart, please don't think you are very smart,
Or you will become too obstinate.
In this world, you can never be too smart, smart.
Please don't think you are very smart,
Or you make everyone very agitated.
Don't be too smart, don't be too smart.
The words coming from your mouth,
Are always unstoppable criticisms.
You laugh at me, and belittle him,
All to prove your own ability.
When you do have some kind of problem,
All you take is some time to solve,
But like the unmovable rivers and mountains,
Your intolerable character is hard to change.
Actually we are learning till we are old,
Better to understand your own limitations,
Don't set yourself too high and mighty,
Or you will loose all your friends.
Even if you have the winning hand,
It doesn't mean you are the world's best.
This is my advice to you,
Hope that you will comprehend,
Smart, smart, please don't think you are very smart,
Or you will become too obstinate.
In this world, you can never be too smart, smart.
Please don't think you are very smart,
Or you make everyone very agitated.
Don't be too smart, don't be too smart.
Please don't be too obstinate,
And become too conceited,
Don't be too smart.
David's rap: We always think we are very capable, but after five thousand years we still haven't learnt our lesson. We have prosperity but lack a heart, these economic miracles are actually tragedies. Taiwan - you're my brother. Hong Kong - you're my brother. China - you're my brother. Chinese - we're all brothers. All we need is a little love, love, love.
Smart, smart, please don't think you are very smart,
Or you will become too obstinate.
In this world, you can never be too smart, smart.
Please don't think you are very smart,
Or you make everyone very agitated.
Don't be too smart, don't be too smart.
