Singapore — Homegrown artist Benjamin Kheng is back again with a new catchy tune for Lalamove, a delivery brand. The 31-year-old is a musician, actor, presenter, writer, and former national swimmer.
In the new video, Kheng wears a bright orange shirt and sings a funny rap song. The lyrics go like this:
“John and Jane had 46 apples in total
And John wants to hand 10 to Jane
But he doesn’t have a car
And she lives very far
How would he do it
Just Lalamove it
You gotta move a thing and you don’t know how
Need it cheap and as fast as time would allow
Need a car or a lorry or a van right now
What do you do
Just Lalamove it
A ball or a cap or a fridge or a cabbage
We’ll move everything
Except emotional baggage
If you need a hand
A delivery brand
Here’s what you do
Just Lalamove it”
As of writing, Kheng’s post garnered 196 shares on Facebook, 95 comments and 4.7K likes.
