Future Adventures of the Greater Bay Area
PLK HKTA Yuen Yuen Primary School, Lee, Cyrus - 11
I was sitting on my sofa watching TV,
When the news came out, “How big we’re gonna be!
With Macau and Southern China, we’re gonna be merged!”
Whoa, it’s the best news I’ve ever heard!
We’ve got more people than the whole Uk,
And make twice the money of the San Francisco Bay!
We’re gonna become an economic hub,
It’s just so sad that we couldn’t keep Youtub!
Macau is a city for gamers of all sizes,
And HK will get more tourists as the attraction count rises.
This huge megalopolis is totally lit,
Although the pollution makes it a rubbish pit.
So, if you’re taking a vacation to Asia,
Why not come on down to our Cantonasia?
The Greater Bay Area
PLK HKTA Yuen Yuen Primary School, Ng, Adem - 11
Surprised I was to learn
Our city shall be merged,
with Macau and Southern China,
‘Twas maybe the best news I’ve ever heard.
This awesome megalopolis
Is astounding indeed,
Land, population and enterprise
We’re gonna take the lead.
I'd wondered what it’d be like,
To live within the Greater Bay,
But all this gruesome pollution
Left me in utter dismay.
So, surprised I was to learn
Our city shall be merged,
with Macau and Southern China,
‘Twas maybe the worst news I’d heard.
