Tonk KosongSlank

Songwriter: Bimbim (Slank) Akhadi Wira Satriaji

Sedikit ngerti ngaku udah paham
Kerja sedikit maunya kelihatan
Otak masih kaya TK
Kok ngakunya sarjana
Ngomong-ngomongin orang
Kaya udah jagoan

Tong kosong nyaring bunyinya
Klentang-klentong kosong banyak bicara
Oceh sana-sini ngak ada isi
Otak udang ngomongnya sembarang

Hak manusia ingin bicara
Hak manusia ingin bernyanyi
Kalau sumbang janganlah didengarkan
Kalau merdu ikutlah bernyanyi

Jangan ngelarang-larang
Jangan banyak komentar
Apalagi menghina

Tong kosong nyaring bunyinya
Klentang-klentong kosong banyak bicara
Oceh sana-sini ngak ada isi
Otak udang ngomongnya sembarang

Terserah mereka kalian atau saya
Asal nggak ngelanggar hukum
Biarkan saja
Tong-tong kosong mending pada diam
Biar dunia tentukan pilihan

Yang mana yang benar
Yang mana yang baik
Dari pada elo jadi

Tong kosong nyaring bunyinya
Klentang-klentong kosong banyak bicara
Oceh sana-sini ngak ada isi
Otak udang ngomongnya sembarang

Aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa

Tang tong, tang kosong

Slank

Slank was formed in 1983 through a school band at a local high school in Slank Jakarta, Indonesia, which named CSC (Cikini Stone Complex). Their main founder, Bimo Setiawan (Bimbim) and their fellow bandmates often played a number of Rolling Stones songs at school. The band later changed its name and personnel to SLANK, with Bimbim on drums, Erwan on vocals, Bongky on guitars, Denny on bass and Kiki on guitars. The name SLANK itself was taken from their musical attitude, which was, and is still reckless, ignorant and play with undetailed groove (Slengean in Indonesian).

In the following years, numbers of personnel changes were made, with Pay on guitars, Kaka on vocals and Indra on keyboard, replacing the previous bandmates.

Although they started their journey in the music industry quite roughly, with numerous of rejected demos, SLANK emerged in 1991 with their “The Best Newcomer” award in BASF event. Successes did not always come for SLANK, when three of their personnel, Bongky, Indra and Pay chose to quit the band, and formed their own band (BIP). Following the resignation, Abdee, Ivan and Ridho joined the band, and since then, SLANK has never changed its personnel again.
