the first of d gang to die
hey hey.
oi oi!
in this entry we are not gonna give you d beauty of blood and pain.
but rather....ppl who provides blood and pain in d solemn streets of somerset avenue singapore.
first up, the cobra alley bandit.
this alley we shot at is in d middle of
downtown, urban-ish but strangely known to breed cobras.yeah literally cobras.hiss!
n these are the few people that own this part of town.they eat sleep and live their melancholic lives in dat particular alleyway since dey were born.through street fight gambles and long experience of hard life n pickpocketting, they survive the life of a post punk alley way dweller.
oscar the grouch; their ancestor.
sid vicious; their godfather.
and leading their bandit is king cobra(the aggressive looking one with the unbuttoned tshirt).The candidates:Marshmallow(the plump one)Trash Cojack(The tall mean looking one carrying the chair)Dr Dra Morissey(the slim one)and Lady Vermin(the onli chick in d group)
The rivals of the cobra alley bandit are notorious, huge business tycoons in d most illegal way, rich filthy and filthy rich bastards, in a huge clean manor dey live in, juz a few blocks from wher the cobra bandits dwell, The Gentlemen of the Goliath Society as they are pronounced.Led by the nephew of Naj Mahal, the biggest investor of this gang, Malcolm Ilmi Macdowell(the one in white), the quartet fiercely rule the whole of somerset avenue, except for the cobra alleyway, which they have yet to possess...thus the rivalry bond.
The candidates: Budi Man Kedubi(the one in orange) Luke Lufthansia(the disgustin lookin one who looks gay(the orange one looks disgustin n gay too but its d other one)) and Drac Au Daniella(the one with dreadlocks).
this is like a war between the westside and the eastside...the bloods and the cribs...the blacks and d whites...the montagues and the capulets...will they go on forever fighting generations after generations?
will they ever learn dat war dunt solve things good?will one of dem bandits get to own d whole of somerset avenue?
well....lets ask these few ppl we've tried askin....
Zal Sri Bok Moo Ker Deer, 15,
Professional paedophile.
"I tink cobra bandits gonna win coz cobras are poisonous...goliath society hav money and pink gun onli mah...den again....i heard dem sayin dat money n guns are poisonous too....hmmmm....im stuck again...u go ask sumone else whil i make more annoying faces."
So we met these other guy from his group, and tried askin d same question.
Gustav(not his real name), 23, Elephant trainer
"Hey i think u shud not encourage these gangs to war.u shud help dem make peace.anyways, i saw u guys takin pictures of my fren, i wan sum shots too can?i think im more ham-sem den him..."
but we were more in love with his tshirt den his face.so we snapped more portions of his tshirt....oh indian goddess on gustav's tshirt...we love u.
den we made our way to a nearby coffesshop to ask this middle aged man, who lookd rather zoned out...as we expected, he didnt say anything to us but stared blankly on his lap.
and lastly we tried askin one of the bandits demselves....we went all d way back to the cobra alley n ask d first one we see....n it happened to be Dr Dra...and so he said.
Dr Dra Morissey, underaged, Cobra Alley Bandit Candidate.
"...erm...i think the er...the goliath gonna kick our ass....er...coz....er....they are rich...n rich ppl can do anything....er...erm....coz money can buy everything.....even happiness.....dunt tell my boss i sadi this...ok?promise?thanks!"
Those were the last words from Dr Dra Morissey.It happened dat King Cobra overheard our interview, and he didnt quite like wat Dr Dra Morissey said....so he crept from d back of a shadow n stabbed Dr Dra Morissey wit a plastic spoon, breaking the fragile bones of the puny Dra Dra Morissey...and dats wher the song "First of the gang to die by the band Morissey" came up about.Sad story....meaningful song indeed.

the powerpuff gerl theory:
snow white was supposedly written for kids as a fairy tale...
but dya noe dat it actually was written to explain the 7stages wou'd go thru wen u take the drug, cocaine?(snow white is a street slang for cocaine)
dats juz for general knowledge.
so we did a project dat we'd like to associate n call it the powerpuff gerl theory.it has got nothin watsoever to do with watever we juz said n mentioned bout snow white n cocaine...but we'l juz put it up anyway.
