I WANNA BE THE MINORITY!!

Music has always taken its inspiration from social and political issues ever since the caveman first sang.. This is inspired by the Gujjar-Meena battle for being designated as the erstwhile condemned and the contemporary privileged..
So ergo es.. This is how they sing the greenday number in India..

I WANNA BE THE MINORITY
I DON'T NEED NO AUTHORITY
DOWN WITH THE IMMORAL MAJORITY
CAUS' I WANNA BE THE MINORITY

I SWEAR
OF HAVING BEEN THROWN
IN THE DUNGEONS IN MY PAST
TO BUY ME A FUTURE THAT IS IN THE FAST
LANE SO THAT I KEEP GETTIN AROUND THE LINE
PUSH 'EM ALL TA LEMME THROUGH, THE ONLY WAY I KNOW

CAUS'.. I WANNA BE THE MINORITY
I DON'T NEED NO AUTHORITY
DOWN WITH THE IMMORAL MAJORITY
CAUS' I WANNA BE THE MINORITY
