That life is hard enough when you belong here
Shelve your Western plans
Shelve your Western plans
No no no
He only wants to impress you
Ohh oh ohh oh
And understand
Oh, shelve your western plans
He only wants to embrace your culture
Bengali, Bengali
Oh no no no no no
Just because I'm the one to tell you
He does not want to depress you
Bengali in platforms
It's the touchy march of time that binds you
Bengali, Bengali
"Shelve your plans, shelve your plans, shelve them"
Break the news gently
Don't hate me
Forever
And to be your friend forever
Ohh oh ohh oh
Don't blame me
Shelve your best friends
Which only reminds me, to tell you
'Cause life is hard when you belong here
Ohh oh ohh oh
And an ankle star that blinds me
That life is hard enough when you belong here
A silver studded rim that glistens
A lemon sole so very high
Shelve your Western plans
Break the news to him gently
Ohh
Bengali, Bengali
Life is hard enough when you belong here
Ohh oh ohh oh
'Cause life is hard enough when you belong
Oh
That life is hard enough when you belong here
