Första julen var inte alls kul. Plastgran, nån musse pigg film kl 15, glögg i gassande solsken, linne och kort kjol, och julmat smakar inte heller särskilt gott när det är så varmt.
Andra julen blev lite bättre. Importerad gran, snöspray på fönstren. Snälla släktingar hade spelat in musses jul året innan så kl 15 satte vi på videon. Tidigt på morgonen stängde vi alla dörrar och fönster och körde på AC:n på högsta effekt så det blev lite småkyligt i huset i alla fall. Tyvärr hade tomemasken smält i värmen så tomten var mer lik elefantmannen.
The night before christmas in Kuala Lumpur
It was the night before christmas and all through the town
No noses were frozen, no snow fluttered down.
No children in flannels were tucked into bed,
They all wore their shorty pajamas instead.
On patios and pool decks sat daddies and moms
Neath Durian, Papaya and coconut palms.
The slumbering kiddies were dreaming with glee,
In hopes of finding TOYS R US under the tree.
They all knew that Santa was well on his way,
In a new Proton Saga instead of a sleigh.
He whizzed down the highways and squizzed down the roads,
Dodging the cycles while peddling his loads.
He sprang frpm his Saga as quick as a wink
Was all dressed in bermudas of red, white and pink.
There weren't any chimneys but that caused no gloom,
For Santa in Malaysia enters through the Amah's room.
He stopped at each house and stay only a minute,
As he emptied his bag of the toys that were in it.
And finally the gifts for Mom and Papa,
Then to the table of air kelapa
Next he leaped into his car and threw it in gear,
And drove down Ampang singing songs of good cheer.
But we heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
Merry Christmas K.L and to all a good night, lah!
