Lo! Mabuti pa kayo ni lola
Namulat sa matitinong uso
'Lo! Kahit baduy kayong pumorma

Today women dress so differently,
They display their souls for all to see
Which is why guys who can't keep it in their pants
Are always on the prowl, prowling the streets

'Lo! Why is it that the youth today,
Are so easily led astray
By such awful styles,
Grandma, won't you help them set things right?

In the olden days if a boy wanted to court a girl,
He would serenade her, or become her servant
And if...
