Translation
Bilingual
Before I met you, I didn't know much
Yes, I could kiss, yes, I could touch
Yes, I could recite certain lines of poetry
Oh, look at me now, you've really made a mess out of me
ย
I do what I say, and I say what I think
Just leave your fingering on the sink
I'm gonna love you 'neath the light of the moon
If I ever see the break of day, baby, it won't be too soon
ย
See that one over there, thinks he rules the roost
Little devil's got the nerve to call himself Proust
And I'm running around in circles like the world's biggest chump
Oh, just wait 'til I get you between the axe and the stump
I've got tight jeans to show my stuff
Got a big fat lip full of snuff
Got an evil eye and a matching wit
I'm so sick and tired, I could spit
ย
How did I get to be this high-strung?
Used to be I'd have all the time to suck on my tongue
I'm gonna put on a happy face
In an hour or two, I'll get up and paint this place
