It's too bad someone with some wit and originality didn't do the translation.. There are a number of these phonetic translations of Indian songs on the web.. They appear to all have been 'translated' by none too clever 9 year olds.. hence we get repeated lines like "we wanna poop on you.. Benny Lava" and "we wanna pee on us..Benny Lava" (Hahahahaha!!! Just a second.. let me catch my breath..ok.. whooo wee) As I said, top drawer 4th grade material.. obviously translated by potty mouthed Indian Southpark kids .. Them or Triumph the Insult Dog..

On the flip side, at least we know where Michael Jackson is hiding these days.. and that does kind of explain the presence of 9 year olds..

I don't think it would be as funny if it were done artistically or cleverly. This is the way I hear songs all the time. Totally nonsensical.

Don't you mean "if it was done artistically or cleverly," Miss Language Maven?
Wheeeeee........

No because it's contrary to fact in the present.
