Come Around Lyrics

[Intro]
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje


[Chorus: M.I.A.]
Check my coat in and I paid the dollar
Sidekick rings, "What's up? Holla!"
Text the address, 'I'll see you later!'
Baby, come down

[Post-Chorus: M.I.A.]
Come down, come down, come down
Run down, run down, run down
Run, make a run, make a run, make a run
Make a run, make a run, make a run down

A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on
A dun da da dun da da dun, dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on

[Verse 1: M.I.A.]
In a faraway land, we got shit made
Ray-Ban shades, warheads laid
Babies born in air raids
My girls run The Everglades
Indian tribesmen, gamble spades
Indian chicks, they get men laid
Milk and honey, smoke high-grade
Gold and diamond, gems and jade
Ride on on our tanks, invade
Blow up things to save our name
Mina, Rina, Tina, Sabrina
Being a super-Indian babe
We black market, we black made
We hit shit out when it rains
Would you come down and catch my train?
Would you run down and play this game?
[Chorus: M.I.A.]
Check my coat in and I paid the dollar
Sidekick rings, "What's up? Holla!"
Text the address, 'I'll see you later!'
Baby, come down

[Post-Chorus: M.I.A. & Timbaland]
Come down, come down, come down
Run down, run down, run down
Run, make a run, make a run, make a run
Make a run, make a run, make a run down

A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on
A dun da da dun da da dun, dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on (Hey, hey)

[Verse 2: Timbaland]
Baby girl, you and me
Need to go to your teepee

The moon is full, and I'm shining
Baby, I know you see me
Put a hump or two on your back
Just like that, ooh, girl you're on fire
I don't wanna be in love with ya
I'ma just break you off and say goodbye
The night is young, don't make
Me wait, you just might miss your chance
I'm gonna tell you the truth, Timbaland
I'm the motherfuckin' man
Today's the day, girl, let me get that
Don't get mad, in fact, let me hit that
I've been overkillin' them, I break backs
Come down, run down, girl, where your place at?
[Chorus: M.I.A.]
Check my coat in and I paid the dollar
Sidekick rings, "What's up? Holla!"
Text the address, 'I'll see you later!'
Baby, come down!

[Post-Chorus: M.I.A. & Timbaland]
Come down, come down, come down
Run down, run down, run down
Run, make a run, make a run, make a run
Make a run, make a run, make a run down

A dun da da dun da da dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on
A dun da da dun da da dun, dun da da dun da da dun dun
Dun da da dun da da dun dun
Beat goes on (Break)

[Bridge: Timbaland]
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje (Ha)
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje
(Hands up in the air one time)
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje (And bounce)
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje (Bounce, bounce)
O na kar maan rupaiye wala baar baar ke na rajje (Bounce, let me tell you something, look)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

The album closer on Kala explores the running theme of M.I.A projection of diverse culture’s on a worldwide scale.

On here collaborating with Timbaland for a guest verse, M.I.A. continues her genre blending sound with sampled folk intro from Shamur’s dance hit “Let the Music Play”, with a verse further exploring the contradictions of mixed culture’s put together on a single piece of art and eventually concluding the album.
