Halla bol
Baby, baby, bol, halla bol
Raise your voice

Baaje mera dhol – Arey

Hoke mast malang...Peele
Zindagi ka bhang...Ab tu
Bol mere sang...Halla bol!

Shrug your shoulders and twist your wrists.
Move your body and shake those ships.

Drip, drop the sweat.

Track Name: Private Dancers
Red Baraat is the new,
We got sousa's phone and flumpets,
T-bones & trumpets,
Dhol drums shake ya bums
Light bulb screwing rumpettes the new jet sets yea,
Jewelry janglin, booty bangin,
Shoulders shruggin jeans huggin
All bets are on all in on the table of life we gonna bring it,
This aint no drum & fife
Just brass & drums here to beat on the tum tum tums,
And make your stomach go yum yum yums
Yo Red Baraat,
Red Baraat is hot,
Feel the drums feel it low like a yo-yo
Swing those hips round & round we on the merry go,
So,
Let flow our song in C minor,
And drink your redrum and scream bloody murder cause we about,
To kill some beats.

Mera joota hai Japani
Patloon Inglistani
Sir pai lal topi Rusi
Phir bi dhil hai Inquilabi

Translation:
My shoes are Japanese,
pants are English,
on my head a red Russian hat,
but in my heart, I'm a revolutionary

No borders no walls freedom sings through us all
No borders no walls freedom dances through us all
No borders no walls freedom rings through us all
No borders no walls, Azad!

Phir bi dhil hai Inquilabi

Translation:
In my heart I'm a revolutionary
