You are the heroine, girl!
I am just the joker, girl!
Even if the hero shows up, I can handle him!
You are CSK, girl!
I am RCB, girl!
Even if we reach the finals, I'll gladly lose to you!
You are my queen, baby!
Your complexion is like red wine!
I sent you long text trains on WhatsApp, girl!
Hey, you are always mine!
I'm a 90s kid, girl!
Basically I'm a good guy, girl, a good guy!
Even if you friendzone me,
It's one-sided love, girl, love, girl, love!
I'm a 90s kid, girl!
Basically I'm a good guy, girl, a good guy!
Even if you friendzone me,
It's one-sided love, girl, love, girl, love!
Oh, day and night, just to be around you,
I wandered about to take a photo!
When I come near, all alone,
to talk with you, you step away!
She smiled so cutely,
glared just a little bit,
and I slipped and fell flat for her!
An angel appeared in person,
granted me a boon,
and became my whole life,
glowing so pure and bright!
Now I have become your friend,
and soon I'll be your husband!
Isn't this the latest trend nowadays?
There is no end to my love!
You are my queen, baby!
Your complexion is like red wine!
I sent you long text trains on WhatsApp, girl!
Hey, you are always mine!
I'm a 90s kid, girl!
Basically I'm a good guy, girl, a good guy!
Even if you friendzone me,
It's one-sided love, girl, love, girl, love!
I'm a 90s kid, girl!
Basically I'm a good guy, girl, a good guy!
Even if you friendzone me,
It's one-sided love, girl, love, girl, love!
