Lyrics
(Nush enters-rap-)
Have you really heard of appropriation,
this is our song,this is our creation,
This is the postmodern explaination,
of music cross-cultural communication,
its mesmerising,hypnotising,makes no sence,
but its still enticing,
Postmodernism is about pastiche,
these are all teh things that we are here to teach,
(Sal enters)
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song
A young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
Chorus:
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby
(Kagiso enter)
Now ive been making hits since underage,
dont fight for me its just a game,
prices go up when come in a store,
i live in another alley in Banglore,Kagiso down to my underclothes,ate like dog that was on the soar,give and get it back on a 104,i think like a cat from the road,ya know i will bring you out,when im talking you dont know a thing about,
(nush enters)Bring the music out
(Saliha enters-urdu lyrics)
Dill mai mairay tho tumhee ho,
Din rath tujhay dhondtee hoon raho mai,
Pass aa kay jo tum kaho tho,
Sounay ko bekarar hain hum yahaan,
(chorus Saliha with Nush in background)
Dill kay andar tum hee ho,
Dharkano mai tum hee ho,
Chor kay na jana,
Mai hoon teray liyae,
Tu hai mairay liyae,
Yae dill kee dharkan khetee ray,
Chorkay kay na jana
(Kagiso enter)
This is for Nush and Saliha,
who stood besides me and still believe,
Postmodernism is what we learn,
good results are what we earn,
G5 flyers and shopping spress,
this is where you wanna be..
(chorus ..Sal,Nush and Kagiso)
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl
