Sambhar of '69 - By Akshay sir

Had my first real six rupees,
Stole it from my mother's purse.
Went to a Madrasi hotel,
To eat the Sambhar of '69.

Me and some kadke dost,
Had it all and we got a bad tummy,
Josemon puked, Jabbar got ulcers,
and Bagga ne maari dakar.

Oh when I went back there now,
the food was as stale as ever,
and though it was 1999,
still the sambhar was being served over there,

That was the worst Day of my life.
(CHORUS)

Therez no use in complaining,
when you got no other place to eat,
rushed in the evening to the doctors clinic,
but he too was at the toilet seat, yeah

Standing there waiting outside,
The nurse told me to will wait forever,
Oh!! and when I held my breath,
I knew that I had to use that loo there

That was the worst Day of my life.
(CHORUS)
Back to the sambhar of 69.

Man I was getting killed,
I was full and restless,
I needed to unwind,
I guess nothing can wait forever - FOREVER... NO!

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Somethimes when I see pizzaz and burgers
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standing there waiting outside,
The nurse told me to will wait forever,
Oh!! and when I held my breath,
I knew that I had to use that loo there

That was the worst Day of my life.
