Here is a comedy/reality song from the film - Edakallu guddada mele 1973 - directed by Shri Puttanna kanagal.

Lyric follows:

chitra: eDakallu guDDada mEle 1973
gAyana: es pi bAlasubramaNyaM
saMgIta: eM raMgarAv
sAhitya: eM narEMdra bAbu

guMDina mattE gammattu
aLate mIridare Apattu
kuDukanigE irOdu niyattu
idE bATli mahattu /guMDina/

heNNina mattu drOhake mUla
honnina mattu bhItige mUla
maNNina mattu vairake mUla
padaviya mattu prANake mUla /guMDina/

vidyeya mattu garvake mUla
rUpina mattu shIlake mUla
shauryada mattu sEDige mUla
kIrtiya mattu.... patanake mUla /guMDina/

bAyige ghATAdarU brainige svITu
mahanIyara snEhake sulabhada rUTu
hE bhakta jana.. hechchiralu Eride rETu
AdarU bArugaLu Opan DE aMD naiTu /guMDina/

Meaning of the song:

guMDina mattu - intoxication/kick from hot drinks
Ostentation (gammattu) of a kick (matte) from hot drinks (guMDina) is defferent
Gives trouble (Apattu) if you cross (mIridare) the limit (aLate)
Only drunkard (kuDukanigE) has (irOdu) honesty/loyalty (niyattu)
This is the importance of this bottle with hot drinks (idE bATli mahattu)

Too much desire (mattu) towards - is common to all eight lines

women (heNNina) leads (mUla) to fraud (drOhake)
treasure (honnina) leads (mUla) to fear (bhItige)
land (maNNina) leads (mUla) to enimity (vairake)
status/position (padaviya) leads (mUla) to one's life (prANake)

education (vidyeya) leads (mUla) to arrogance (garvake)
beauty (rUpina) leads (mUla) to bad manners/conduct (shIlake)
valour (shouryada) leads (mUla) to revenge (sEDige)
fame/glory (kIrtiya) leads (mUla) to downfall (patanake)

Though it has pungent smell to mouth (bAyige ghATAdaru),
but very sweet to the brain (brainige svITu)
Easiest (sulabhada) way (rUTu) to gain the friendship (snEhake) of honourble persons (mahanIyara)
Rates are hiked (Eride rETu) because of increase (hechchiralu) in liking people (bhakta jana)
Even then (AdarU) BARs (bArugaLu) are kept open (Opan) day and night (DE aMD naiTu)
