Hey, a stone in the pond!
Dude took a drink to chill out!
Liquor in the glass!
Drink it down in my name!
Hey, a quarter is nothing,
No need for a half bottle,
If you want to get completely knocked out,
Buy a full bottle!
Pockets full of cash,
Dude, we never miss out!
It's so, so jolly, man,
In Pondicherry!
{ Sharp [Chorus: Gang!]
Male: Buy the [Chorus: Booze!]
Male: When you get [Chorus: High!]
Male: Shut your mouth and dance, man! }(2)
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Hey, with her face fully
Covered in makeup,
The girl on Facebook
Does a video chat!
If you look at her real face,
It doesn't look good at all!
She covers it with that shawl,
What is there to say!
Targeting a guy,
She demands money every single day!
Girls like that...
Just shove them aside!
Burned by a girl,
If you end up broken and hurt,
Bro will lend a hand and lift you up,
Always a true friend!
If you come with respect,
We'll give you respect, bro!
If you glare at us,
We'll smash your face, bro!
Whatever happens,
We will never split up, bro!
Even if the whole town comes at us,
We won't run away, bro!
