{ Somersault, flip, and turn,
the moment I saw her,
my heart did a somersault! } (2)
He's driving, he's driving,
he's speeding down a one-way street!
Hey, it's Marina Beach, man!
The wedding is on, man!
Chorus: He's driving, he's driving,
he's speeding down a one-way street!
It's a one-day match, man!
Out on a golden duck, man!
Chorus: He's driving, he's driving,
he's speeding down a one-way street!
The cool beach breeze, man,
my heart feels so light, man!
The instant I saw her,
I went totally crazy, man!
It's a Housing Board tenement, man,
hit with an Income Tax raid, man!
Ever since I saw her,
even I've turned to pure gold, man!
Pure gold, man, pure gold!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
Hey, it's Marina Beach, man!
The wedding is on, man!
Chorus: He's driving, he's driving,
he's speeding down a one-way street!
It's a one-day match, man!
Out on a golden duck, man!
Chorus: He's driving, he's driving,
he's speeding down a one-way street!
Hey, just like a customized bike,
her look and figure are sharp!
Chorus: What a figure, what a figure!
Clear as an LCD picture!
When you look into her eyes,
a green signal light turns on!
Chorus: What a signal, what a signal!
A sleek Singapore signal!
Hey, she's got a speedometer smile,
and she's fuel for my heart!
Right inside her heart,
I'm going to run a race of love, man!
Hey, a laugh like a blaring horn,
she is an ultra-modern creation!
She will stretch my lifespan,
turn it into a hundred years and take me along, man!
He shifts into gear,
he revs up the throttle,
and in a bullock cart,
he tries to drive in a figure-eight!
Stop the chatter, man!
Buddy, let's get moving, man!
Bring that golden girl along,
and make your grand entrance as a pair, man!
Make your entrance, step right down!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
Hey, around the Lighthouse area,
who is as stunning a beauty as her?
Chorus: Truly top-class, man, top-class!
Our buddy's girl is top-class, man!
Geetha, Priya, Usha, Mala,
are nothing in front of her, man!
Chorus: No match at all, no match at all!
Yes, buddy, they're no match at all!
Hey, for my punctured heart,
she is like porridge laced with vodka!
Now, even the time spent without her
has become intoxicating, man!
Hey, from Dooming Kuppam to Kasi,
hey, after the month of Thai comes Maasi,
in the coming month of Vaikasi, I'll gather the whole town
and make the big announcement, man!
Something strange is going on,
it's all so mysterious!
Love got caught in his hands,
and is struggling in distress!
Stop the chatter, man!
Buddy, let's get moving, man!
Bring that golden girl along,
and make your grand entrance as a pair, man!
Make your entrance, step right down!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
Somersault, flip, and turn,
your buddy's life is totally splendid now!
