Bhindi Bhagee |
Well, I was walking down the High Road |
And this guy stops me |
He’d just got in from New Zealand |
And he was looking for mushy peas |
I said, no, we hadn’t really got 'em round here |
I said, but we do got |
Balti, Bhindi, strictly Hindi |
Dall, Halal and I’m walking down the road |
We got rocksoul, okra, bombay duck-ra |
Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without — with it or without |
Bagels soft or simply harder |
Exotic avocado or toxic empenada |
We got akee, lassi, Somali waccy baccy |
I’m sure back home you know what tikka’s all about — what tikka’s all about |
Welcome stranger, to the humble neighbourhoods |
You can get inspiration along the high road |
Hommus, cous cous in the jus of octopus |
Pastrami and salami and lasagne on the go |
Welcome stranger, there’s no danger |
Welcome to this humble neighbourhood |
There’s Balti, Bhindi, strictly Hindi |
Dall, Halal and I’m walking down the road |
Rocksoul, okra, bombay duck-ra |
Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without |
So anyway, I told him I was in a band |
He said, «Oh yeah, oh yeah — what’s your music like?» |
I said, «It's um, um, well, it’s kinda like |
You know, it’s got a bit of, um, you know.» |
Ragga, Bhangra, two-step Tanga |
Mini-cab radio, music on the go |
Um, surfbeat, backbeat, frontbeat, backseat |
There’s a bunch of players and they’re really letting go |
We got Brit pop, hip hop, rockabilly, Lindy hop |
Gaelic heavy metal fans fighting in the road |
Ah, Sunday boozers for chewing gum users |
They got a crazy D.J. |
and she’s really letting go |
Oh, welcome stranger |
Welcome stranger to the humble neighbourhoods |
Well, I say, there’s plenty of places to eat round here |
He say, «Oh yeah, I’m pretty choosy.» |
You got |
Balti, Bhindi, strictly Hindi |
Dall, Halal, walking down the road |
Rocksoul, okra, bombay duck-ra |
Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without |
Let’s check it out |
Welcome stranger to the humble neighbourhoods, neighbourhoods |
Check out all that |
Por-do-sol, por-do-sol |
Walking down the high road |
