I'll take you to the Indian Shop (Candyshop Remix)

The credit for this post goes to my Sri Lankan friend Natasha. It happened during our latest weekend brunch (where I make grilled sandwiches stuffed with mashed potatoes, onions and chilly). I was telling her about my last trip to the Indian grocery store, Szep Kis India and all the stuff I recently bought there. Since most of it was food, it is quite obvious that there was a lot of excitement in my manner of speech. 

Somewhere in the middle, the conversation ended up including girls. Natasha mocks me by saying, "You probably impress girls by saying - I'll take you to the Indian Shop" and she sings the second half of the sentence like 50 Cent's song "CandyShop" (video at the bottom). Even though she burned me real bad, it was way too funny for me to not laugh at it. 

After a hard 2 minute laugh, we actually end up remaking the chorus of that song as if an Indian guy was singing it and I promised her to make a proper remix of that song. I've done precisely that for the first verse of the song. Enjoy

Indian Shop 

[Chorus - 50 Cent] 

I'll take you to the Indian shop 

I'll let you taste my spices, hot 

Go 'head girl, don't you stop 

Keep going till you burn your mouth 

[Chorus - Olivia] 

I'll take you to the Indian shop 

Boy one taste of my curry hot 

I'll have you spending all you got 

Keep going till you burn your mouth  

[Verse 1] 

You can have it your way, how do you want it 

You want my Chicken Curry & some Naan with it.  

Temperature rising, okay lets go to the next level 

Green chilli and Garam Masala, hot as a teakettle 

I'll break it down for you now, baby it's simple 

If you want a Dhokla, I'll get you a Dhokla 

In the hotel or in the back of the rental 

On the beach or in the park, small packets for two 

I got them kathi rolls, I'm the Spice doctor 

Have your friends teasing you 'bout how red I made ya 

Want me to show you how to cook it baby? no problem 

Get that packet of Eggs along with Green and Red Chutney 

I'm a seasons vet when it comes to this flavour 

After you work up a sweat you can ask for the dessert 

I'm trying to explain baby the best way I can 

Gulab Jamun melts in your mouth girl, not in your hands (ha ha) 

[Chorus - 50 Cent] 

I'll take you to the Indian shop 

I'll let you taste my spices, hot 

Go 'head girl, don't you stop 

Keep going till you burn your mouth 

[Chorus - Olivia] 

I'll take you to the Indian shop 

Boy one taste of my curry hot 

I'll have you spending all you got 

Keep going till you burn your mouth
