Malang Road
(Tune: Country Road)

Almost Bali, Eastern Java,
Volcanic island, muddy Brantas River.
Life is slow there, slower than it seems,
Faster than the traffic, slower than my dreams.
Chorus:
Malang Road, take me home,
To the place where I belong,
Surabaya, Eastern Java,
Take me home to the old kampung.

All my memories, gather round me,
Surabaya ladies, riding in a becak,
Dodging bemos, trying to cross the street,
The magic taste of Bintang, sweating in the heat.
Chorus:

I hear the voice of the distant masjid calling,
The BBC reminds me of my home far away,
Driving down the road I get the feeling
Everybody's got the right of way,
So I drive...and pray..
Chorus:
