about

A funny Carnatic Hip-Hop track about the greatest food ever created by mankind, Dosai.

lyrics

Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go
Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go
Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go
Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go

Dosa Dosa want some dosa
Takadimi tha taka thinna tha thinna tha
Dosa Dosa want some dosa
Takadimi tha taka thinna tha thinna tha Dosa Dosa need some dosa
Thom tarikita taka thinna thinna tha thinna tha
Dosa Dosa want some dosa
Takadimi tha taka

Eat it with sambar
Chutney green and white
Nationality on a plate
You heard that right (dai)
Eat at home, eat it out
Not a doubt, it’s the best
Put it to the test
To the others I say rest in peace
Tarikita tarikita taka
Tarikita tarikita taka

Sa re ga pa dha sa dha sa ga re
Sa ni dha pa ma ga re ga
Sa re ga pa Dosa

Dosa Dosa.. uh uh
Dosa Dosa

I’m no rapper no gully
No covidiot
I stay at home rhyme in time
What’s the fuss
I don’t see it

My life has been Carnatic
Like my washing machine
It comes to me (hey)automatic
Been so long since I wrote a new song
And everything o wrote became an anandhabhairavi song

Alaap

Hungry for inspiration
And some food too
You know what I did
Oh you could do it too

Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go
Heat the pan, grease it nice
put some batter and let it go

Turn it once and twice
Fold it left or right
Put it on a plate
Put an end to all the hate
Tarikita..

Dosa Dosa need some Dosa

Niruthu da
It’s not Dosa, it’s Dosai

Dosai? Dosaiiiiiii

Sa re ga pa dha sa
Dha sa ga re sa ni dha pa ma ga re ga
Sa re ga pa Dosai

Sa re ga pa dha sa
Dha sa ga re sa ni dha pa ma ga re ga
Sa re ga pa Dosai

Dosai Dosai want some dosai
Taka dhi mi taam taka taka dhi mi thai
Dosai Dosai need some Dosai
Taka dhimi taam taka taka thai taka thai
Dosai Dosai

Hey what about Uthappam
Oh, that needs a whole new song.
