Kanna kanna naan Kathu thaaren vaada vaada
Indha annan sonna nee Kettukoda en raja raja

Male & Chorus : Kanna kanna naan Kathu thaaren vaada vaada
Indha annan sonna nee Kettukoda en raja raja

Pallikoodam bore adikkum Puthi kettu poga vaikkum
Attam aadu thool thool parakkum Naalai nalla naal pirakkum
Attam aadu thool thool parakkum Naalai nalla naal pirakkum

Male & Chorus : Kanna kanna naan Kathu thaaren vaada vaada
Indha annan sonna nee Kettukoda en raja raja

Kappiadikka neeyum kathukka Kaasu koduthu passu pannikka
Vendaandaa padikaadhae Unnai veenaaga keduthukaathae

Sandhai kadaiyil maark vikkudhu Lanjam kodukka quevil nikkudhu
Poiyinnu nenaikkadhae Poiyinnu nenaikkadhae

Ada aanavum oonavum kathukama Ingae B.A. vum M.A. vum rombha peru
Ada aanavum oonavum kathukama Ingae B.A. vum M.A. vum rombha peru

Idhu oorellam naadellam naari pochu Ada eppodhum poi illa namma pechu

Naatilledhukku katchi ithanai Roattil edhukku kodigal ithanai

Kaasu panathai vaari kottavum Ooru nelathil veedu kattavum
License -eh katchi thannda Ippa nadellam kollai thaanda

Indha naattukkum kalvikkum othukaathu
Idhu naai vaalu eppodhum nimiradhu
Indha naattukkum kalvikkum othukaathu
Idhu naai vaalu eppodhum nimiradhu

Indha oorodu nee serndhu vesham podu Nee munnaeru poiyaaga kosham podu

Kanna kanna naan Kathu thaaren vaada vaada
Indha annan sonna nee Kettukoda en raja raja

Male & Chorus : Kanna kanna naan Kathu thaaren vaada vaada

Song Meaning & Analysis

The song is a satirical and cynical commentary on the state of education and politics in society. The elder brother advises the younger one (Kanna) to embrace shortcuts and corruption, as traditional values and hard work are no longer rewarded. It highlights how education has become a commodity, marks are bought, and degrees are obtained without actual learning, while the system is rife with bribery.

Politically, the lyrics criticize the proliferation of parties, the commercialization of public service, and the rampant corruption where political affiliations act as licenses for personal gain and plunder. The repeated phrase "A dog's tail will never straighten" emphasizes the ingrained nature of corruption and the futility of expecting genuine change, urging the listener to adapt to the corrupt system by putting on a disguise and raising false slogans to succeed.
