Dash The Curry Skit Lyrics

Refugee Education Number 2
Dash the curry like a knight in a hurry

Me come from the deli
Me not got no worry
And if you fuck with me
I'm goin' to dash my curry[x4]

I second those corrections. How do some people on this site come up with the lyrics they come up with? "A knight in a hurry?"

Curry is an indian spice so she is saying if any one messes her, she is going to dash the curry, or basically resort to her cultural instincts.

Dash means to throw violently, and it's kind of a stereotype and it's assumed that everybody from South East Asia eats loads of curry. The whole 'refugee education' etc. . .they're basic lessons that point fun at racism experienced by refugees. She's poking fun of both language patterns that differ in languages [I'm not sure what it's like in Tamil, but in Punjabi we put the verb at the end of the sentence, kind of with German and sub-ordinating conjunctions and use of a second verb]. So she's adopting basic English from an immigrant perspective using wrong word order owing to differing word order patterns [playing on stereotypes]. Dash is also a term of frustration in the UK, so it's - in my opinion- taking the piss out of ill-conceived UK stereotypes. From a British Asian perspective, this song is fucking side splitting.
