A NEW RAP ARTIST who goes by the uncanny name of Peter Parkher and who goes around being photographed in Spiderman shirts won the GRAND PRIZE in the First Anti-Corruption Songwriting Competition held last May 12 at the AFP Theater, Camp Aguinaldo. His publicists say Peter is deeply inspired by the web-swinging superhero.
Parkher made a full swing with his entry Mahiya Naman Kayo. He says he’s offering the song to our country. Parkher interpreted the song himself during a star-studded competition that also saw singers like Kyla, Rueben Laurente and the 9th Avenue Performing.
The young singer’s comic performance and hard-hitting rap composition bagged the 250,000 cash pot, a trophy and a free trip to the UK courtesy of The British Council.
Jungee Marcelo won second place, taking home 150,000 pesos and a trophy for his entry, ‘Walang Kurap’ while Christine Bendebel placed third with her composition, ‘Crossroads’, which fetched for her 75,000 pesos and a trophy.
Christine’s entry was interpreted by ISHA, who’s also a songwriter. Isha and Peter Parkher are both under Music Bridge and Media Trends.
The Anti-Corruption Songwriting Competition is a part of the year-long activity of European Commission-Office of the Ombudsman (EC-OMB). The contest drew over 200 entries built around the theme ‘Building A Culture of Integrity and Excellence’.
Ten compositions are named finalists. They include ‘Ang Kailangan Gawin’ by Gary Granada, ‘Sabay Tayong Magpalaki ng Maganda Ngayon’ by Mike Villegas, ‘I am a shield’ by Ruben Lopez Jr., ‘Simulan Natin’ by Chona Borromeo, ‘Tigilan mo na yan’ by Edilberto Reyes and Robert David for ‘Kahit Na’ and ‘Tayo ng Maglingkod sa Bayan’.
The contest night was hosted by Arnell Ignacio and Nanette Inventor.
MAHIYA NAMAN KAYO!
MAHIYA NAMAN KAYO
Song lyrics
By Lemuel ‘Peter Parkher’ Samblero
Chorus:
Kawawa naman ang mamamayan
Corrupt kayo ditto, corrupt kayo dyan
Binoto po kayo ng buong sambayanan
Bakit pati kaban ng byan pinakikialaman
Para sa mga mahalnating politico
At sa mga nagtratrabaho sa ating gobyerno
Sana naman ay maging tapat kayo
Dahil kung hindi, mahiya naman kayo.
Ako si Peter Parkher laging walang laman ang tiyan
Samantalang busog na busog mga buwaya sa daan
Akala ko mga buwaya lagi lang sa kanto
Mayron din palang buwaya sa palasyo.
Tumaas lahat ng bayarin, bayan lumalagpak
Ang hindi lang tumataas ay ang mga pandak
Ayan meron namang Value Added Tax
Pero ang masakit itoy laging kinukulimbat
Ng mga bantay salakay, noong botohan lang mabaet
Dahil sya ay corrupt, maraming bahay at kabet
Na nangakong pag binoto ay giginhawa rin
Tapos na termino kamiy mahirap pa rin
Ito ang kandidatong kinakarga mga musmos
Pero pagtulong sa kapwa sa puso nila ay di taos
At pag nanalo na isa lang ang nasa isip nila
Kung paano pera ng bayan kanyang maibubulsa
Sana lahat ng gobyerno parang Big Brother House
Para kaban ng bayan kita pag ninanakaw
At pag nahuli sa akto ito ang parusa
Sabay-sabay silang barilin doon sa Luneta
Kasi ang pagnanakaw n’yo buhay din ang kapalit
Dahil sa inyo ang daming gutom na paslit
Lumalaki ang inyong tiyan kayo lang ang nagpapasarap
Ng pera ng bayan pero ang daming naghihirap
Ang panalangin ko and I hope this will come soon
From SK to President ang sahod nila ay minimum
Tingnan natin kung mayoon pang mangandidato
Sa lahat ng sangay ng Gobyerno, itatak sa ulo niyo
Sana ang corrupt at maging panget
O kaya tuluyan ng sumara ang butas ng kanilang puwet
Inaalay ko ito sa lahat ng mga corrupt
Ang patuloy sa pag-corrupt sana tamaan ng kidlat
