 Building boom transforms holy sites MECCA: Five times a day across the globe, devout
Muslims face this city in prayer, focused on a site where they believe
the prophet Abraham built a temple to God. The spot is also the place
Muslims are expected to visit at least once in their lives.
Now as they gaze here in their mind's eye, and make the pilgrimage
clothed in simple white cotton wraps, they will see something other
than the austere black cube known as the Kaaba that occupies the spot.
They will also see Starbucks. And Cartier and Tiffany. And H&M and
Topshop.

These are the lines that unite us all. How many do you still remember?
BARISAN
Inilah barisan kolej
Yang sedang berjuang
Siap sedia berkorban
Untuk Kolej Melayu
Sebelum kami berjaya
Jangan harap kami serah
Inilah sumpah pemain kita
Menuju, medan bola/hoki/ragbi
Andai kata kami semua berjaya
Kami akan merasa gembira,
Kami mohon doa
Semoga berjaya
Semboyan telah berbunyi
MCKK akan menang
SAMUDERA
Inilah pasukan kolej kita
Di padang berjuang
Mempertahankan nama dan maruah
Kolej yang tercinta
Kolej, kan harum namanya
Kolej terkenal berbisa
Kepada pejuang kita
Ingatlah pesanan ini
Moga kau teruskan usaha
MCKK kan jaya

BLUES
Istana kuning di Kuala Kangsar
Bandar di raja negeri Perak

Semua pemain dah berselerak
Ini bukan lagu protes
Hanya blues untuk MC
Blues untuk semua pemain kami,
Blues untuk penyokong disini
Blues untuk kolej kami
Blues Blues blues untuk budak bandar tahun ini..
Ini bukan lagu protes
Hanya blues untuk MC

As initiated by DD (thanks to him for reminding me this), we are keen to retrace our footsteps and find the songs that we used to sing every morning.. Please do add or repair the lyrics if you found any imperfections. As my memory might be not as sharp as before.
Remember your promises brothers!
