TKGS School Song

Hey there. =)

Two days ago, Lynnette, my dear ex-tkgssb section mate sent me two music pieces that she did. She did surprise me a bit because of the choice of song -the TKGS school song. As she said in the email "both are jams, improvised", and it sure sounds more interesting than the original one. =P

She has kindly allowed me to put them up here, so here they are. Enjoy. =) And do drop her some comment kay!

Lyrics to the Tanjong Katong Girls' School Song:

"We cannot all be heroes and thrill a hemisphere
With some great daring venture, some deed that mocks at fear
But we can fill a lifetime with kindly acts and true
There's always noble service for noble souls to do


We're not all blessed with beauty not everyone with brain
But each from every other has something good to gain
So let us make an effort to keep it as a rule
That each one needs the other within the Katong School

Then let us fill the hours with minutes truly spent
In helping one another towards a true content
So let us serve with honour and work for selfless fame
For credit of our country and glory of her name"

Au Revoir.
