細路哥 - Jan Lam Hoi Fung

某一年,一班刚刚考完会考嘅同学约埋一齐唱K
流行曲唱到一半嘅时候 其中一位朋友问左隔离个位一个问题
喂,你估二十年后嘅今日我地会变成一个咩人?
What did I do when I finished my government exam? Tat was like 10 yrs ago. I had limited memory on that but I guessed after SPM, a group of us rushed back and had a battle on the square table. What a way to celebrate? By the way, I think we did the same also when we finished our PMR. 20 yrs after that? What I become after that?

二十年后,可能已经变成一个西装骨骨嘅中环人
手戴劳力士,银包有好多张信用card
放工嘅时候就一齐系酒吧度一边望住个烟灰盅
一边望住隔离台果个女仔 睇下距条裙几时会走光
Haha... I started as a normal working class employee... wearing shirt and slack and occasional khakis in a MNC manufacturing plant but not in 中环, not in the Malaysian equivalent of KL city area. Of cox, since it's only 10 yrs, definitely not a Rolex on my wrist. Well, I'll never don a gold Rolex cox it's too uncle. Haha.... chinese said, grapes not ours always tasted sour. Credit card? A few only but not gold card, though it's not difficult to apply for it. Happy hour after work? Not really a happening guy so never do this.

二十年后,大概终于买左个部好想拥有嘅汽车 但是仲有二十几期要供 Yup, bought a car but definitely need more than 20 monthly payment to settle off the loan.
二十年拉,应该转过好多份工 Changed a few jobs already but I guess it's still going to happen.
识做嘅野越来越多,但是同时发觉学识越来越少 This is spot-on.
系果个时间 间唔中可能会去下gym 但是做来做去都是减悟到个肚腩 This is another damn spot-on.
当然,二十年来你间唔中都会捻起一段一路都未能放低嘅感情
女朋友越来越多 但是爱嘅越来越少 Why this is not happening to me?


唱: 细路哥,你得到什么? 你失去什么? 你知道 what are you looking for?

独白:
大概系果个时候,可能会有身边嘅亲人离开
而是果阵时,你会有好多讲唔出口嘅遗憾
同时间,你会发觉,原来人生已经过左一大半 同年,终于结婚拉!This is still far.... not even a stroke of a word.
用左半生嘅积蓄 俾左一层楼嘅首期 有车位,有泳池、会所 Never thought of this at all.
娱乐越来越多,但是快乐越来越少 This is so right. We have lots of entertainment around, but does entertainment = happiness?
两年后,可能会离婚 回复单身之后嘅一个晚上 一个人系床上面,
抓住遥控不停甘转台 食左两粒安眠药 跟住点起支薄荷烟
然后淋左一滴自亲人离世之后嘅眼泪 When is the last time we cry or have a drop of our tears to break our hard-defended dam of our eyes?
突然之间你又捻起
系二十年前你是一个咩人
系果一晚,一大班同学约埋出来一齐唱K 唱到天光
仲记得系果朝早番到屋企嘅时候 打开门系台面 见到有一碗屋企人留低嘅汤碗汤,已经冻左啦。

唱: 细路哥,你得到什么? 你失去什么? 你知道 what are you looking for?

So, did you get what you're looking for? Or rather do you know what are you looking for? I hope I know what I'm looking for and wish you do too.
