Barbie Girl Essay, Research Paper

Sing it to the Barbie song…

Hi ya lang niu! Hi lang jai!

Want to ride in my Honda?

Sure lang jai!

Jump in!

* I’m a Chinese girl, in a Chinese world,

Eating wonton, it’s perfection.

I have light brown hair, Sanrio everywhere,

Frustration, in my generation.

Come on dd, let’s go drink tea.

I’m a Chinese girl, in a Chinese world

Playing Majhong, nothing is wrong.

I have tons of flares, tight shirts everywhere,

Looking cocky, just can’t stop me.

I’m Chinese, Asian girl, in a white-people world

Egg foo young, just for fun, I do laundry.

You’re so tall, Chinese doll, eat some jook and chow mein,

No FOBS here, egg rolls there, fortune cookie.

Eat cha siu, eat bok choy, you can say I love Sam’s club.

Repeat *

Come on dd, let’s go drink tea.

Ai ai ai yah.

Come on dd, let’s go drink tea.

Ooh ooh

Make me cook, make me clean, do whatever is mean

I can do some kung-fu, I have loads of bamboo.

Come jump in, let’s play pool, cruise around just again,

Look and stare, dye your hair, rent some movies.

Gung jai mein, I’m jook sing, I go to the library

Bot paw girls are so mean, you can say I grow string beans.

Repeat*

Oh, that guy, kui tai mut gwai?

Well lang niu, I’ll use my martial arts.

Oh I love you lang jai!
