626 grams

626 Grams




This is a protest song

About a man called

Lim Kok Yong

This man had

Some marijuana

Malaysian Government

Got bad Karma.




(Chorus)




Two hundred and twenty six grams

Aint no reason to hang a man.




A little mercy is

All we say

To waste a life

Is just no way.




(Repeat)




(Chorus)




Aint no justice

Every time

The punishment

Outweighs the crime.




(Repeat)




(Chorus x2)

Alun Buffry, a spokesperson for the Alliance, said "Today I read about a self-confessed supplier to be hung for about 650 grams of cannabis.

"Lim Kok Yong, 24, is to be hung by the neck in agony until he dies, for just 626 grams of cannabis plant material.

Because we didn't know what to do, petitions are out their to sign, Chris Baldwin wrote this song impromptu Jan Wells (LCA Sec), sang along, I played a bass recorder,!

THIS is wrong for people to be hung over cannabis!

GREAT SONG!!!!

the music is really good and the message is so very simple.

STOP CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR VICTIMLESS CRIMES.

Countries with harsh drug laws have no problem from the revenue that drugs coming out of their country generate, but if it is not going in THEIR pocket.

They kill you.

We have a couple things like that here in the States.

BIG PHARMA and the MAFIA.

Good song.

Unfortunately, Singapore (as with many South-East Asian countries) has draconian penalties for drug possession, including cannabis. Last time an Australian was hanged there (Nguyen Tuong Van) people boycotted companies owned by the Singapore government.
