1. Popat Kaka ki atma ka, Popat ud gaya ud gaya rey…​ Shristey k sajjan haath se popat jud gaya, Jud gaya jud gaya jud gaya rey.
2. Momma ka purse, jaise hospital ki pyaari koi nurse Purse mein rakha tissue paper karta hai paseene ka ilaaj Aur lipstick ho jaise, bhooke hotho ka anaj​ Momma ke purse ka hai makhmali sa sparsh​ Momma ka purse, momma ka purse
3. Lakul lagul lakul lagul laal laal lagul lagul jelly Jelly ke cabaret dancer jaise shareer mein chupi hai unkahi, unsuni paheli​ Jelly – meri momma ka mann, narm, mulayam, meetha Pasand kare isse harr koi – Sangeeta, Rita, Nita, Anita. Jelly gire zameen par to awaaz aaye plup plup​ Baccha usme haath maare, to sunai deti hai thup thup​ Jelly par kabhi fungus na lage, uska swaad kabhi bhankas na lage​ Agar bachani hai hume hamari country Toh jelly ko banana chahiye iss desh ka pradhan mantri!
4. Ek teen pair waala kutta. Isko kabhi bhagaana nahi padta Susu karte waqt, Use pair uthaana nahi padta
5. Sone jaisa rang hai tera, aakhe jaise moti, laash jaisi dikhti hai jab khuli aankh se soti machli bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu kissi de do choti choti…
6. Ek common man ko mili hai pari, jaise cheeku ke saath ho raspberry Aage aage momma aur peechay peechay daddy, jaise ho Tom and Jerry Momma hai sweet srikhand and papa ghee wali poori​ Mauka hai khushi ka aaj, momma aur daddy ki anniversary!
7. Tum samjho to mujhe bhi samjhana, kyu mera jeevan hai khokla​ Pagal baawra sa anjaana… aise baasi khaman dhokla
8. Khatar khun khatar khun khatar khun, Sun mere dil ki dhun, Tere pyaar ki oiling mil gayi isey, Toh khatar khun ka ho jaayega gun gun.
9. Meri moma Maya Sarabhai, yaani ishwar ki di hui badhaai​ Ishwar ki samjhaai hui sachaai, ki duniya maaya se hi bani banaai​ Sab kuch hai maaya, yeh sofa yeh kaaya​ Ishwar ne table-cloth bhi hai maaya se banaaya Rista bhi maaya, raasta bhi maaya, lunch dinner aur breakfast bhi maaya Maya to sophistication ka pratik hai, thodi contemporary thodi antique hai Maya to hai mamta ka chhaya, sara pyaar aata always via maaya Maaya hai jeevan ki preyasi, Maya hai jaise dining table ki kursi Maaya hi dudh, Maya hi lassi, phir kaise kahu ki maaya chal basi?
10. Hawa mein hain khushi ki aroma Jeet gayi momma, jeet gayi momma say hi to happiness and tata to trauma jeet gayi momma, jeet gayi momma
