Made in Thailand

Made in Thailand. This land of ours.
Since the olden times we have only good things.
From before Sukhothai, through Lopburi, Ayutthaya, Thonburi.
Now we´re in the age of BMA. (Bangkok),
the city where people fall down drains.
(Oh no. Don´t blame anyone!)

Made in Thailand. What the Thai do themselves.
Sing a song with meaning, dance a dance with style.
The farangs secretly admire it, but the Thai don´t see the value.
Afraid to lose face, that their values aren´t modern enough.
Made in Thailand. Hey, who´s going to do something about this?
(I think someone should be responsible.)

Made in Thailand. All you fans understand.
Products the Thai make, Thai-used, Thai-made.
We sew the clothes, the trousers and the jeans.
They´re sent off by air, only to be imported back again.
The Thai get the face
(But the farangs get the money - Oh yeah!)

Made in Thailand. But when displayed in the shop,
they put on a label that says "Made in Japan",
and it sell like hot cakes, for a good price.
We can say that they come from abroad,
and are modern, just like in a magazine.
Nobody have to cheat us, we cheat ourselves!
