Pull up in the middle

With a little bit of rage and a gas

Full of vengeance

Gotta put a cap

On my anger, keep cool

Gotta handle this whole situation

How the hell did i end up here?

Third eye blind now

Third eye clear

Varlaam varlaam vaa

My thirst for payback

Is about to be quenched

Follow free like water

Like bruce lee’s revenge

Wolf in sheep clothing

See the fake posing

Make em all disapper like 1000’s (Dialogue)

{Varlaam varlaam vaa

Varlaam varlaam vaa} (2)

Who is he? Who is this guy?

Ask around the town, you will know.

Come forward and look,

Stand before him and you will understand.

Step right up, come on,

Step right up and come, Bairavaa, hey hey hey!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up and come, Bairavaa!

Let any rock that clashes turn into dust,

Let everyone live together in harmony,

He is a raging bull, let him gore them down with his horns,

Let all the love overflowing hold its head up high!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on,

Step right up and come, Bairavaa!

Pull up in the middle,

With a little bit of rage and a case,

Full of vengeance,

Gotta put a cap,

On my anger, keep cool,

Gotta handle this whole situation!

How the hell did I end up here?

Third eye blind now,

Third eye clear!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up and come, Bairavaa, hey hey hey!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up and come, Bairavaa!

He is the commander born of pure affection!

He is the eternal master of true care!

Hey, he is the commander born of pure affection!

He is the eternal master of true care!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on,

My thirst for payback,

Is about to be quenched,

Flow free like water,

Like Bruce Lee's revenge,

Wolf in sheep's clothing,

See the fake posing,

Make them all disappear like thousands!

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on,

Step right up, come on!
