Who has heard of God Save the Queen?

(Pictures online, neither of them are mine.)

Sorry for the ignorance, I have lived in Hong Kong (colonies) for decades, and I didn’t know there was a song called God Save the Queen. It’s the first time I heard the name, so I’ll go to youtube to watch it right away, I’m afraid I’ll lose my memory in old age, maybe when I was a child I may have heard it, but it was all thanks to "Little Pink", which made me realize what was missing in my life.

"Little Pink" also said that in Hong Kong before 1997, Hong Kong people would salute the portrait of the Queen every day.

Seeing me almost burst out laughing.

I am not a black police officer, I believe that only the police station will have a portrait of the Queen of England. But don't the police worship Guan Gong? I haven't been to the police station, so I have to ask the police to find out.

Alas, it has only been more than 20 years, and some people have already begun to rewrite the collective memory of Hong Kong people. Fortunately we are not dead yet.

Attached: God Save the Queen spoof Cantonese version ( Wiki )

In the 1980s, there was a Cantonese version of "spoof" in Hong Kong. The first sentence was "everyone hold one's pocket", but after clicking "translation", there is no final decision. Versions include "The Soup Is Enough", "The Knives and Forks Are Rusting", "Mau1) Loud (hoeng2) Begging for Rice on the Street", "The Loud Star Pier", etc. According to legend, this spoof version comes from the flower hall. "Put a pocket" refers to the queues in the prison cell to eat the royal meal.
lyrics:
Each one grabs a pocket,
Knives and forks are rusted,
Dirt again.
Be A Mao in every dynasty,
In the evening party, I will bask in the sun,
to be trapped by the road again,
to stumble again,
Suffering has no end.

At that time, would Hong Kong people be pulled by the police if they spoofed the lyrics of God Save the Queen? Sent to the UK for trial? Stupid? At that time, everyone used to make jokes about "The First Lady" (the Queen of England).

PS

At the end of the year, why suddenly there are so many waste articles, there is no other, because I still owe one article this month to make up 30 articles. XD
