Come on, buddy...
Come on, buddy...
I'm the Don of all Dons,
Born with a silver spoon,
We are the top guys in the gang, man!
Just ask our name at the bank, they'll tell you, man!
Into hot stars the whole town watches,
We have turned, man!
Now we are the royalty of royals here, man!
We're dating dollars now,
Our rating has become five stars!
Pop your collar up and
Come on over, brother!
No matter who calls out to us,
Our ears can't hear a thing!
The car is speeding along,
Across Google Maps!
There is no chance we'll hit the brakes,
We're riding right on top!
We are Lord Labakku Das (fancy big shots) now,
Come on, we're taking off to space!
We're going to grab a seat on a satellite,
We're going to shine a flashlight on that moon!
On a long drive across the rainbow,
We are going to go!
We will go and become
The boss of all bosses...
We are racehorses now,
We've won the gold cup!
Hey, we are racehorses now,
We've won the gold cup!
Just like Jackie Chan,
We're going to leap around!
Holding walkie-talkies at home,
We're going to talk!
On a world tour, from town to town,
We are going to go!
We will go and become role models
For the whole town!
We've won the coin toss,
And raised our bat high!
Fours and sixes are flying across the ground,
No one has a chance to chase this down!
All the records ever built,
We are going to break!
To all the world champion teams,
We'll give a tough fight!
Buying a phone made of gold,
I'm going to talk to my golden sweetheart!
Buying you everything you ask for,
I will take you straight to heaven!
Buying diamonds to string
Along with the thali (sacred wedding cord),
Like a queen blessed with great fortune,
I am going to treat you!
Singing and dancing as a pair,
We are going to live our lives!
Like a jar and its matching lid,
We are going to be made for each other!
