The Indian Irish Drinking Song
[Verse 1: Rasika Mathur as Leprechaun]
The Indian flag, the Irish flag, both of them look the same
An orange stripe a white stripe and a stripe of green
But if you look in the middle you'll say what's the deal?
The Irish flag has nothing and India's got a little wheel
And did we mention the stripes go in two completely different directions?
The Irish go this way, the Indians go that way upon closer inspection!
[Hook: Bar Patrons]
HEEY!!
India's got a little blue wheel I wish we had something too!
It's like having an arm without a meaningful tattoo!
[Verse 2: Rasika Mathur as Leprechaun]
The Indians wear saris, the chosen style of dress
But to tie one it seems you'd have to be a sorceress!
In just a Hanes T-shirt the Irish look is more undressed
The scrappy ones on the playground, the tough kids at recess
Now something you'll never see in your lifetime
Is an Indian kid and an Irish kid kicking each other's behinds
Oh believe you me, us Irish kids, we know how to fight!
But the Indian kids believe in non-violence, and most of them are four-eyes!
[Hook: Bar Patrons]
Indian kids are disciplined and sweet and smart and shy
But us Irish kids have k**ed someone before the age of Five!
[Verse 3: Rasika Mathur as Leprechaun]
WELLLLL…
Both accents are fun to do, especially at an audition!
Everyone can do Apu, and the great Liam Neeson!
We Irish like to drink and eat our potatoes
The Desis like to dine on chapattis and la**i made of mangoes
We've got the Irish Setter and they've got the Chapparapai
Both of us are immigrants to Hell's Kitchen and Jackson Heights!
[Bar Patrons]: Respectively!
Unique and different in lots of ways, in others quite the same!
They both have an I and a D and N and an A in their names! HEYY!
India and Ireland, let us say it again! (EVERYBODY!)
They both have an I, and a D and an N and an A in their names!!!!
