Yes, Eng Wai, I got it. But because I am not familiar with Penang Hokkien I could not make out every word. I'll try to figure them out after repeated listening. Thank you very much.

Tiao leng tiao leng a gua a beng a tu a kau a kat a
seng

(ChungLing ChungLing AGua ABeng ATu AKau AKat ASeng, I
don't know why they pronounce Chung Ling as Tiao Leng,
very strange. Also, I have no idea what AKat
indicates. )

ha mit mia pun u mg si tua bun su
(What also got, not a big deal)

tapi tiao leng kia tiok ji u kan ku
(But ChungLing kids must be got kan ku, I don't know
what is kan ku)

Ta ke kong tiao leng kia ka liao si kuai kia tat chet
gau gau ko chek si pek pia
(Everyone says CHung Ling boys all are good boys,
studying cleverly, exam very pia)

tapi lin pek tat liao goh ni
(But your uncle (me) has studied 5 years)

si mit gui pun kua kui
(whatever ghost also see already)

xia gut la gut bak
(no idea)

kui jit boh cou kang kui
(whole day never do homework)

sin se ka chet tiao gua to a bui kap siao
(teacher is teaching, I at the back is sucking semen
(talking rubbish))

liao a bui tao cao tuang ka si kan liao
(and at the back run away secretly skip until the time
finish)

ki o tng chap chet wa ko chit chet
(Go to school 10 periods ????? 7 periods)

chut ban co lo bo chap siao keong kan la
(go out the class do silly things don't suck semen
(can't be bothered), rape (fuck off))

Lu kua kui lei o thng
(you see the whole school)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx pang sai si pun ai ua chang eik keng
mui
(can't catch the sound, when shitting also has to
change the door of shower room)

Pai kia kuai kia ciao kia siao kia
(bad boy good boy birdy boy crazy boy)

kong lai kong ki ma si ka liao si tiao leng kia!
(say come say go (whatever you say) also everyone is
Chung Ling boy!)

Some addendum and typing correction to the post above:

Line 2: (What name also got)

Line 6: Whatever ghost is equivalent to whatever thing

Line 12: chap siao is not suck semen. chap is "to bother".

Line 14: Niuc opines that the "ua" means "close/near" instead of "change". I think Niuc is right. But I couldn't figure out the sound of xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

One thing Niuc pointed out is the pronounciation of tiong leng as tiao leng. I too am confused for this. It is impossible for CLHS people not to pronounce the name in Hokkien properly. I guess it is a intended sarcasrstic pronounciation. But I remain puzzled on sarcastic meaning of that pronounciation.

Good morning to all.

Hong, to be exact, I didn't say that it shoud be tiao. I don't know what are the exact hanji for Chung Ling. In my personal email to Eng Wai, I thought it was 中 tiong1 but what I heard in the rap was more like tiao. Btw what are the hanji for Chung Ling? Thanks.
