WHO'S FAULT IS IT? CERTAINLY NOT MINE!

Friends, this is the English version of our Malay Bangau Oh Bangau ....

The college professor who said,

Such wrong in the student is a shame,

Lack of preparation in high school is to blame.

Said the high school teacher,

Good heaven, the boy is a fool,

The fault is of course with the middle school.

The middle school teacher said,

From such stupidity may I be spared,

They send him to me so unprepared.

The primary school teacher said,

The kinder gardens are blockheads all,

They call it preparation,

Why it’s worse than none at all.

The kinder garden teacher said,

Such lack of training never did I see,

What kind of mother must that woman be.

The mother said,

Poor helpless child, he’s not to blame,

For you see, his father’s folks are all the same.

Said the father at the end of the line,

I doubt the rascal is even mine!
