Is an election just a biscuit?
Once you climb up and take the seat,
Are the people just puppets, ah?
Is your whole wallet crypto?
Is Warren Buffett your classmate?
Shall I make a call to Elon Musk?
Shall I pull up in a Tesla car?
Your mouth, your tall tales!
If the winner says it, does it make it right?
Shall I dig into your past records?
Doesn't STD just mean your history?
Even while staying at home,
Homework is a pain
Homework is a pain
Haven't met in person, still I'm fine
When you go to class, "Please keep quiet"
"You keep quiet!"
This isn't a classroom, hey, it's online
Hey, this is online
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey
You might have Amazon Prime,

Hey...
Male: Looks a bit global,
Thoroughly local
Everything is our nation
Everyone is our relation
Love has no eyes
Love has no bias
Whoever it is, just be nice
I won't say it twice

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

Maattuthaavani to Manhattan is a lively, satirical Tamil hip-hop track performed by content creator Madhan Gowri, producer ofRo, and rapper Asal Kolaar. The song playfully juxtaposes local Tamil culture and bus stands (Mattuthavani in Madurai) with global landmarks, political figures, and tech titans like Joe Biden, Warren Buffett, and Elon Musk. Through absurd hyperbole, internet humor, and modern youth slang, the song highlights contemporary themes such as online education during lockdowns, cryptocurrency crazes, political satire, and digital culture. Beneath its nonsensical and casual banter, it carries a lighthearted message promoting universal love, family values, and making the most of life's fast pace.
