Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I was in a sheer dress the day that we met
– I roto ahau i te kākahu noa i te rā i tūtaki ai mātou
We were both in a rush, we talked for a sec
– I tere tonu mātou, i kōrero mātou mō tētahi sec
Your friend hit me up so we could connect
– I patua ahau e tō hoa kia taea ai e mātou te hono atu
And what are the odds? You send me a text
– A he aha nga taumahatanga? Ka tukuna mai e koe he kuputuhi ki ahau
And now the next thing I know, I’m like
– Na, ko te mea e whai ake nei e mohio ana ahau, he rite ahau
Manifest that you’re oversized
– Whakakitea he nui rawa koe
I digress, got me scrollin’ like
– Ka huri ahau, ka huri ahau
Out of breath, got me goin’ like
– I roto i te manawa, ka haere ahau rite
Ooh (Ah)
– Ooh(Ah )
Who’s the cute boy with the white jacket and the thick accent? Like
– Ko wai te tamaiti ataahua me te koti ma me te whakahua matotoru? Ka rite ki
Ooh (Ah)
– Ooh(Ah )
Maybe it’s all in my head
– Tērā pea kei roto katoa i toku mahunga
But I bet we’d have really good bed chem
– Engari e whakaaro ana ahau he tino pai te moenga o tātau
How you pick me up, pull ’em down, turn me ’round
– Me pēhea te tiki i ahau, te tiki i a rātou, te huri i ahau
Oh, it just makes sense
– Aue, he mea tika
How you talk so sweet when you’re doin’ bad things
– Me pēhea te kōrero i te reka ina mahi koe i ngā mea kino
That’s bed (Bed) chem (Chem)
– Ko te moenga (Moenga) chem (Chem)
How you’re lookin’ at me, yeah, I know what that means
– Me pēhea koe e titiro mai ai ki ahau, ae, e mōhio ana ahau he aha te tikanga o tērā
And I’m obsessed
– A he mea whakawehi ahau
Are you free next week?
– Kei te wātea koe i te wiki e whai ake nei?
I bet we’d have really good
– I bet we’d have really good
Come right on me, I mean camaraderie
– Haere mai ki ahau, ko te tikanga o te hoa
Said you’re not in my time zone, but you wanna be
– Ka mea koe e kore e koe i roto i toku rohe wā, engari e hiahia ana koe ki te kia
Where art thou? Why not uponeth me?
– Kei hea koe? He aha ahau i kore ai?
See it in my mind, let’s fulfill the prophecy
– Tirohia te reira i roto i toku ngakau, kia fakahoko tatou i te poropititanga
Ooh (Ah)
– Ooh(Ah )
Who’s the cute guy with the wide, blue eyes and the big bad mm? Like
– Ko wai te tangata ataahua me nga kanohi whanui, puru me te mm kino nui? Ka rite ki
Ooh (Ah)
– Ooh(Ah )
I know I sound a bit redundant
– E mohio ana ahau he iti noa iho taku tangi
But I bet we’d have really good bed chem
– Engari e whakaaro ana ahau he tino pai te moenga o tātau
How you pick me up, pull ’em down, turn me ’round
– Me pēhea te tiki i ahau, te tiki i a rātou, te huri i ahau
Oh, it just makes sense (Oh, it just makes sense)
– Oh, it just makes sense (Oh, it just makes sense)
How you talk so sweet when you’re doin’ bad things (Bad)
– Me pehea e korero ai koe kia reka ina kei te mahi koe i nga mea kino (Kino)
That’s bed chem (Oh, that’s bed chem)
– Ko te chem moenga (Aue, ko te chem moenga)
How you’re lookin’ at me, yeah, I know what that means

And I bet the thermostat’s set at six-nine (Bed-bed ch-chem)

And I bet it’s even better than in my head (My)

How you pick me up, pull ’em down, turn me ’round (Ooh)
