This is the story about a man Who carried a parcel in his hand In a brown paper bag He didn't want the people to know what he had So he went to a corner opened it up and took a swig The world seemed more beautiful and he thought to himself Why do we.. Constantly feel blue Why do we Look to substance to change the hue Why do we Put poison in our bodies every night Is that our plight Because we got stuff on our minds Because we got stuff on our minds And as the liquor got to his head He still couldn't get to bed At night Something just wasn't right and so he Called the doctor, called the nurse Called the lady with the alligator purse And they didn't have answers but they sat together and they all wondered why Why do we.. Constantly feel blue Why do we Look to substance to change the hue Why do we Put poison in our bodies every night Is that our plight Because we got stuff on our minds Because we got stuff on our minds

Aditi: How old are you now 25, 26? The family's asking when you going to get hitched Drop some babies in the mix Your internal clock is ticking, why you got me in a fix When you settle down you can do as you wish Why don't you find a good man, the sea is full of fish Don't you understand, that's not all I want? I've got my own aspirations, so don't call me nonchalant But you're of marriageable age Dark side of your twenties You're of marriageable age Freedom of spirit you've had plenty Why are you running around What are you doing with your life You going to end up in the lost and found If you're no someone's wife soon.. Dee: Time is ticking ticking why you wanna slip it slip it Your beauty is dripping dripping why you think you're different different You're getting flipped flipped time to get you hitch hitched Turn off your switch switch time to dream is up kid It is our business hypocrisy is limitless This is the system no point in resisting The more you say no, the harder we gon try It is our only goal, don't ask us why You're in India, not in the States What is lost once cannot be replaced Here's another rishtaa now just don't debate If the stars align then why the fuck you wanna wait Beta you're a sack of egg better pop before it's late We don't wanna see you be free just blame it on your fate Purani soch ko badalna namumkin hai Jiyo ji bharke but only if you're misses and Shaadi ke baad karlo hugs lelo kisses man License to live hai yeh marriage certificate Why don't you understand? You're a zimmedari Bachpana tum chodo ab kya kahegi duniya saari Look at this photo your maasi just sent me Don't you roll your eyes baby you can be his lady Cook him food after work try to keep him happy In laws are in charge now always gotta be sanskaari Being a brown girl is both a curse and a boon They wanna tie me down but I wanna touch the moon Marriageable Age khaul raha hai khoon Can't wait till your 30 the time is coming soon

I'm a small fish in a big pond Swimming against the current of life and it isn't always very nice In my old stream I used to dream of swimming away But this water seems too cold Maybe I'm just getting old Let's call it a day I'm a small fish in a big pond Swimming against the current of life and it isn't always very nice In my old stream I used to dream of swimming away But this water seems too cold I mustn't buckle Must be bold Keep swimming my way
