Sing-Along: Bring Andy And Harry Home, Let Digong Rest

(To the tune of “Bring Him Home”)

[Verse 1]

God on high, hear our plea,

Send a plane, economy!

Bring them back, we need them here,

Their sweet justice, so sincere.

[Verse 2]

Andy B, where did you flee?

Come back home—transparency!

COA waits, no time to waste,

So much funds still left misplaced.

[Verse 3]

Harry Roque, once so bold,

Spinning tales that must be told.

Tried his best, but lost the fight,

Now just shouting left and right.

[Bridge]

Let Digong rest, let him sleep,

No more stress, no more weep.

Let the old man take a break,

No more tokhang, no more hate.

[Verse 4]

Come on home, face the score,

There’s more fun in ‘Pinas for sure!

Fate is kind, the past is gone,

Now let’s move on… let’s move on.

Cabangan Bridge Is Falling Down Falling Down…

(To the tune of “London Bridge is Falling Down”)

Verse 1

Cabagan Bridge is falling down,

Falling down, falling down,

Cabagan Bridge is falling down,

Let’s rebuild it!

Verse 2

Built with care in Duterte’s time,

Duterte’s time, Duterte’s time,

Built with care in Duterte’s time,

A lasting legacy!

Verse 3

Build it up with steel so strong,

Steel so strong, steel so strong,

Build it up with steel so strong,

It will stand tall!

Verse 4

Cars and trucks can pass with ease,

Pass with ease, pass with ease,

Cars and trucks can pass with ease,

Safe and sound now!

Fact-Checking “Investigative Writer” Raissa Robles

Raissa Robles, self-proclaimed investigative writer and proud author of one book, recently donned her internet sleuth hat to criticize the girl group Phantom Siita, claiming they were “Filipinos trying to look like Koreans.” The irony? Phantom Siita isn’t Filipino or Korean—the group is Japanese! Yes, Japanese, as in sushi, not kimchi or adobo.

One can only wonder if Robles’ investigative skills stopped short of typing “Phantom Siita nationality” into Google. Or perhaps she was too busy plotting her next groundbreaking exposé: “Filipinos Trying to Be Swiss While Eating Toblerone.”

This mishap is a gentle reminder that a writer’s most powerful tool is research—preferably done before hitting “post.” If Robles wants to critique cultural appropriation, she might first need a crash course in geography and modern pop culture. Phantom Siita, meanwhile, continues to slay stages, blissfully unbothered.
