Salary Lyrics Meaning Ahamed Shyam | Anivee | Family Padam
Ahamed Shyam and Anivee structure demands like ‘Raise my salary, I can’t take it anymore’ against corporate hypocrisy. Their lyrics mock management slogans with lines questioning ‘Will you feed me at your house?’ after empty unity promises.
Palla Koda VelakaamaWithout even brushing my teeth,
Office Odi Poren NaanI’m running to the office.
Aana Increament Romba NaalaveBut for a very long time,
Enga Area Pakkam KanomAn increment hasn’t been seen anywhere near my area.
Future Plansu KoodaWithout even having
Illama ThaanAny future plans,
Vela Seiven NaanumI just do my job.
Yaenna Romba Secured AhBecause to feel really secure,
Naan Feelu PannaI need to have
Naalu Kasu VenumA bit of money.
Ye Soru Poda Inga Aalu Illa DaHey, there’s nobody here to feed me,
Pavam Paathu KonjamaSo have a little pity.
Salariya YethuRaise my salary,
Ennala MudiyalaBecause I can’t take it anymore.

Vittu Puttu Pogavum Thairiyam IllaI don’t even have the courage to leave it behind.
Salariye PothumThe salary’s enough.
