I am sure this is made in the name of fun, so yeah, take this with a light heart.
While the song is ridden with connotations of “brown” > “yellow”, I thought that the lyrics was rather hilarious and it didn’t really criticises the yellow race much. I thought that it was more of a music video about a lonely indian guy, haha! Jump for the lyrics!
Indian Guy – Yellow
and you can guess my race
you wont even see a trace
of anything yellow
I’m an indian guy, in Singapore,
Everytime i step out the door.
I only see yellow
And so i go to school
and everyone thinks they’re cool
but they were all yellow
Chorus:
your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones
is not, is not as beautiful
you know, you know i need a brown girl
in this yellow world
I tried to date, a girl just like them
Didnt work out in the end
cuz she was too yellow
I even wish i was colourblind
then maybe i wouldnt mind
that she was all yellow
Chorus:
her skin, oh yeah her skin and bones
was not, was not as beautiful
you know, you know i need a brown girl
in this yellow world
Its true, look how i pine for you..
look how i pine for you…
look at the stars, look how they shine for you
and all the things you do…
I am yellow~
