My eyes squint when sunlight hits them
For breakfast, only fruits
The whole city is just dust
Hey, female friends are my boost
சன்லைட் பட்டா கண்ணு கூஸ்
ப்ரேக்பாஸ்ட்க்கு ஒன்லி ப்ருட்ஸ்
சிட்டி பூரா ஒரே தூஸ்
ஏ கேர்ள் ஃப்ரண்ட்ஸ்தானே எனக்கு பூஸ்ட்
When they see me, they propose
Celebrities are close to me
I strike a pose for paparazzi
Whatever I do, that becomes the news
என்ன பார்த்தா தே ப்ரோபோஸ்
செலிப்ரிட்டிலாம் எனக்கு க்ளோஸ்
பேப்பரான்ஸிக்கு கொடுப்பேன் போஸ்
எது பண்ணாலும் அதுதான் நியூஸ்
I have been a sad single for a few days
Not just today, I am always humble
Nothing special, my lifestyle is simple
My weakness is beautiful women
கொஞ்ச நாளா நான் சோகமான சிங்கிள்
இன்று மட்டுமில்ல எப்பவுமே ஹம்பள்
லைப் ஸ்டைலாம் ஒண்ணுமில்ல சிம்பிள்
வீக்னெஸ்தான் அழகான பெண்கள்
Let us change, we will change our...
From next week I am not reachable
Tell me right away, anything is possible
We can talk and hang out from Friday to Monday
மாத்திப்போமே மாத்திபோம் எங்கள்
ஃப்ரம் நெக்ஸ்ட் வீக் ஐ ஆம் நாட் ரீச்சபிள்
உடனே சொல்லு எதுனாலும் பாசிபிள்
பேசலாம் பழகலாம் பிரைடே டு திங்கள்
No doubt babe, she is a ten out of ten in beauty
Even so, I have an eye on her friends
I know in our culture it is one-on-one
Ah, where is the fun in that?
நோ டவுட் பேப் அழகுல டென்னுக்கு டென்னு
இருந்தாலும் அவ ஃப்ரண்ட்ஸ் மேல எனக்கொரு கண்
ஐ நவ் நம்ம கல்ட்சர்ல ஒன்னுக்கு ஒன்
அடடா அதுல என்னடா இருக்குது ஃபன்
No doubt babe, she is a ten out of ten in beauty
Even so, I have an eye on her friends
I know in our culture it is one-on-one
Ah, where is the fun in that?
நோ டவுட் பேப் அழகுல டென்னுக்கு டென்னு
இருந்தாலும் அவ ஃப்ரண்ட்ஸ் மேல எனக்கொரு கண்
ஐ நவ் நம்ம கல்ட்சர்ல ஒன்னுக்கு ஒன்
அடடா அதுல என்னடா இருக்குது ஃபன்
(Humming...)
ஹம்மிங்.....................
My template dialogue line
I love only you
You know what in this, I like you
What shy, what style, believe me, believe me
என்னோட டெம்ப்ளட் டயலாக்
உன்ன மட்டும்தான் பண்றேன் அன்பு
இதுல என்ன தெரியுமா ஐ லைக் யூ
சை என்ன ஸ்டில் என்ன நம்பு நம்பு..........
(Humming...)
ஹம்மிங்.....................
She slid into my DM asking 'What are you doing?'
She gave a subtle hint saying 'I am bored'
Since mom and dad are not at home
It will be nice if you come and say hello
வாட் யூ டூயிங் பிஎம்ல ஸ்லைடு பண்ணா
ஐ ஆம் போர்டுன்னு லைட்டா ஒரு ஹிண்ட் தந்தா
டாடி மம்மி என் வீட்டுல இல்லாததால்
வில் பி நைஸ் நீ வந்து ஒரு ஹலோ சொன்னா
If Friday night comes on my calendar
I will show off my style on a heavy trip
Even if I come empty-handed
They stand in queue to give me company
ப்ரைடே நைட் என் காலேண்டர்ல வந்தா
ஹெவ்வி ட்ரிப்ல காட்டுவேன் பந்தா
வெறும் கைய நான் வீசிட்டு வந்தாலோ
கம்பெனி கொடுக்க வரிசையில நின்னா
She came right in front of my eyes like lit
She came close and gave me candy
She was a friend on day one
As time passed, she crossed all that
கண்முன்னே லிட்டா வந்தா
கிட்ட வந்து மிட்டாய் தந்தா
டே ஒன்ல ப்ரண்டா இருந்தா
போக போக அதெல்லாம் கடந்தா
Love needs two hearts
That stage is old news for me
What to do, this is young age
Search and explore until you get it
லவ்க்கு வேணும் ரெண்டு மனசு
அந்த ஸ்டேஜ்லாம் எனக்கு பழசு
வாட் டு டூ இது யெங்கு வயசு
கெடைக்குற வரைக்கும் கையை விட்டு அலசு
No doubt babe, she is a ten out of ten in beauty
Even so, I have an eye on her friends
I know in our culture it is one-on-one
Ah, where is the fun in that?
நோ டவுட் பேப் அழகுல டென்னுக்கு டென்னு
இருந்தாலும் அவ ஃப்ரண்ட்ஸ் மேல எனக்கொரு கண்
ஐ நவ் நம்ம கல்ட்சர்ல ஒன்னுக்கு ஒன்
அடடா அதுல என்னடா இருக்குது ஃபன்
No doubt babe, she is a ten out of ten in beauty
Even so, I have an eye on her friends
I know in our culture it is one-on-one
Ah, where is the fun in that?
