the first verse as kids we always reminds ourselves not to free load ie eat without paying.

食飽枉等著拍

the second verse is the actual verse often use in gangsterism, referring to newbie failing to collect "protection money".

dun have chinese translation in this computer (not my own).

Oh if it's that meaning for the first phrase ("free loader"), then it is not 食飽枉等著拍 already. Cos initially I broke up the phrasing as 食飽 // 枉等 // 著拍

It should be

Clivebenss SG

Thank you for the clarifications.

I help you to add some of the necessary "h"s to maintain consistency and to reduce confusion ok can?

thayh bo lui than tioh phah
拿無鐳趁著拍

so the whole verse is an actual gangsters referral.

食雞倚雞，食鴨倚鴨

refer to which gangs they join.

拿無鐳趁著拍

refer to failure if they cannot perform.

食霸王等著拍

as we chide those gangster that eat and never pay.

Pengawal, thanks for starting the “食雞倚雞，食鴨倚鴨” query too. Through you asking more questions, I get to learn new additional things from Penghulu too. Therefore we should continue to do more language exchanges on the forum to learn things from each other.
