Oh peacock, oh peacock,
drop a feather, ee ee ee yeah!
Oh peacock, peacock, drop your feather!
If you feel desire, flirt with me!
When a young lad flirts,
a young girl cannot resist!
My handsome lover,
did you melt me like wax?
Male: Are you actress Asin,
or glue stuck to my heart?
Losing sleep for a week or more,
I ended up wandering out in the wild!
Come on baby,
let's go party tonight!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Female: No no baby,
you just can't get it right!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Come on baby,
let's go party tonight!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Female: No no baby,
you just can't get it right!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Oh peacock, peacock, hoo!
Drop your feather, hoo!
If desire sparks, flirt away!
When a young lad, hoo,
starts flirting, hoo,
a young girl cannot resist!
Come on baby,
move your body,
move your body,
wanna feel the heat from your body!
Can you feel the heat of my lips on your body?
Come on now, I'm gonna kiss you,
damn kiss you, damn!
I just don't care,
come and you, come and you,
give it to me baby,
give it to me baby, do me now so sexy!
Any young girl,
when she catches sight of your youth,
will fall flat for you with a thud!
With all your swaying curves,
young girl, when you smile,
a fire flares up suddenly in my heart!
Touching my soul,
right to the crown of my head,
if your hands touch me, lightning strikes!
Pure and untamed as you are,
I will steal you away!
I will paint this pitch-dark night in bright white!
Oh, get lost!
Come closer, come on!
Winning you over is no easy task!
Whenever I ask,
you must give me a hundred kisses!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Female: Ah, all four lips
must make sounds of love every day!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Pull to the beat,
Male: Boom shaka boom!
Female: Spill the heat,
Male: Boom shaka boom!
Female: Give me more,
Male: Boom shaka boom!
Female: Let's hit the floor,
Male: Boom shaka boom!
Peacock...
Female: La la laaa...
Male: Peacock...
Female: Aaha ha...
Male: Peacock...
Female: More more mooo...
Male: Peacock...
Female: Gooooo...
...
Just like churning curd
with a wooden churner,
she churned my soul with her eyes!
Just like a golden beetle
burrowing into a fruit,
she dug deep into my heart!
The spray of Courtallam falls
is inside you,
and the drizzle of Tenkasi is inside me!
If the two of them unite,
it will become a rushing flood,
enough for us to bathe in all day long!
Come, my spotted deer,
come, my fresh sweet honey,
I can't bear waiting any longer!
In our forest now,
it is pouring sweet rain!
Chorus: Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Female: If it keeps on raining
more and more, what harm is there?
