A new National Day Parade song 'The Fun Pack', set to the tune of Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance', is raising the hackles of STOMPers.

STOMPer Misstangguo feels that it is "humiliating and disgraceful" to adapt other songs for National Day, while STOMPer takemehome thinks that lines like 'I want a biscuit and I want a sweet' are cheesy and childish.

STOMPer Misstangguo wrote:

"Many are upset that this song can be approved for NDP.

"In the past, no matter how bad the song, it's still made in Singapore.

"This year, it is just a disgrace, especially since this is uploaded on the internet.

"People from other countries will see how 'original' we are.

"Many like myself feel that this is humiliating and disgraceful."

STOMPer takemehome said:

"My friend who attended one of the NDP 2011 combined rehearsals was horrifed by the childish lyrics of this song, which included lines like 'I want a biscuit and I want a sweet, you and me, let's share this treat'.

"This song, titled 'The Fun Pack' song, takes after some lyrics and the tune of Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance'.

"To date it has received quite a bit of flak, and I personally think the lyrics are cheesy and uncreative.

"According to my friend, similar negative sentiments were echoed amongst the crowds even as the 'cheer officials' tried their hardest to rouse everyone.

"Judging by the sheer amount of dislikes on the youtube video and the comments, some of which bordered on disgust: 'Yucks, the NDP committee has hit a new all-time low' and even 'I hope whoever was in charge of the song choices gets the sack, seriously. The songs don't have a single thing that is related to Singapore.'

"I guess this shows that even as the quality and scale of each year's NDP improves, much more could be done about the new NDP songs.

"I too wonder, how come they don't write stuff like 'Home' anymore?"

All those RC ball-licking losers will wave the flag obediently while those who are awake ones will fly off during that period to avoid shame and disgrace.

Here are the cheesy and childish lyrics:

The Fun Pack Song (to the tune of Bad Romance)

Oh o o o o o o o o
Time for the fun pack song
Oh o o o o o o o o
We like the fun pack song

Let's start with the bag
That's right, grab your bag
It's the fun pack bag
Attack the fun pack

(REPEAT)

Hold up your flag, don't you forget
You can wave it if you feel like it
Let's wave the flag
Wave wave wave
Let's wave the flag
Take out your light stick, it's two of a kind
It's interactive, means you can join
Just pretend
Oh oh oh... It's a disco

(SPOKEN)

You know that I want you
And you know that I need you
I want a wet, wet tissue

I want Newater and I want a cold drink
You and me, let's share a bit
I want a biscuit and I want a sweet
You and me, let's share this treat

Kopi-O o o o o o o o o
Time for the fun pack song
Kopi-O o o o o o o o o
We like the fun pack song

Let's start with the bag
That's right, grab your bag
It's the fun pack bag
Attack the fun pack

I want Newater and I want a cold drink
You and me, let's share a bit
I want a biscuit and I want a sweet
You and me, let's share this treat

Kopi-O o o o o o o o o
Time for the fun pack song
Kopi-O o o o o o o o o
We like the fun pack song

Let's start with the bag
That's right, grab your bag
It's the fun pack bag
Attack the fun pack!

Towards the end, one of the female host said: "Good job Singapore" Yes, good job Singapore for this cheesy ripoff. Apparently, according to the Straits Times, the organisers do not have rights to modify the lyrics of the song, and they have taken it out of the programme. First it was the JJ Lin's YOG song, and now this. What a disgrace!

A president scholar and yet Col Ong don't even know the difference between the right to publicly play a song and the right to modify a song. With such senior officers in the SAF, I worry for Singapore.

Video: Lady Gaga Bad Romance rip-off yanked
NDP organisers did not have the rights to modify lyrics

The clip of last Saturday's performance of the Fun Pack Song, which modifies the lyrics of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, has gone viral and been panned by netizens on YouTube.

THE National Day Parade (NDP) organisers are in a bit of a fix after they modified the lyrics of a Lady Gaga hit to create a song about the parade's goodie bag.

They performed the ditty, called the Fun Pack Song, once at last Saturday's rehearsal for the parade, and had planned to repeat it for the pre-parade segment on Aug 9.

The clip of the performance of the song, which modifies the lyrics of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, has gone viral and been panned by netizens on YouTube.

Last night, the parade organisers said they had secured the public performance permit for a series of songs, including that hit.

'But we did not realise that the rights obtained did not include rights to modify the lyrics of the song. We are currently working to rectify this,' said the chairman of the NDP show segment, Colonel Ong Tze-Ch'in, in a statement last night.

He did not specify the kind of rectification to be made, but it is understood that the Fun Pack Song will not be performed until a go-ahead is obtained from the publisher of the song and Lady Gaga's recording company.
