[Verse 1]

早上打卡慢半拍,

Clocking in late in the morning,

一杯kopi慢慢来。

A cup of kopi, taking your sweet time.

问你工作做到哪,

Ask you where your work is at,

你讲等下会安排。

You say you'll arrange it later.

手机电量剩一半,

Phone battery half-empty,

工作进度还没看。

Work progress not even checked.

老板脚步一传来,

As soon as the boss's footsteps are heard,

马上站起讲很忙!

Immediately stand up and say you're very busy!

[Chorus]

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

[Verse 2]

一张照片拍三遍,

Taking three shots of one photo,

货架还是同一面。

The shelf is still the same.

Before after找半天,

Searching for 'before and after' for half a day,

原来只换拍摄点!

Turns out only the shooting spot changed!

问你几时会完成,

Ask you when it will be finished,

你讲明天一定行。

You say tomorrow will definitely work.

明天又有新剧情,

Tomorrow there's a new plot twist,

你的等下会旅行!

Your 'later' will go on a trip!

[Chorus]

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

[Bridge]

笑归笑,来帮忙,

Laughing is laughing, come help,

大家一起才收档。

Only together can we close up shop.

手脚快,心要在,

Be quick and focused,

做好工作笑着回!

Finish work and go home smiling!

[Chorus]

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Tso khang bou jin chin, khui ji i a bong.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

Jong kang bo jin-chin, kui jit-i a-po.

Working without much money, opening a shop is easy.

[Outro]

放工第一?可以!

First to leave work? Okay!

工作也拿第一!

Also be first in work!

Lines explained

“马上站起讲很忙!”

Immediately stand up and say you're very busy!

This line comically describes the coworker's immediate reaction to the boss's presence, highlighting their pretense of being busy.

“原来只换拍摄点!”

Turns out only the shooting spot changed!

This line points out the coworker's superficial effort in work, only changing the angle of a photo instead of genuinely improving the product or display.

“做好工作笑着回!”

Finish work and go home smiling!

This line offers a positive message, encouraging efficiency and a good attitude towards work, contrasting with the earlier playful jabs.
