Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Heee-heee, heee-heee, heee-heee, heee
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Heee-heee, heee-heee, heee-heee, heee
Simmer down, simmer down
– Dwindle away, dwindle away
They say we’re too young now to amount to anything else
– Bathi sisebancinci kakhulu ukuba singenza nantoni na
But look around
– Kodwa jonga jikelele
We worked too damn hard for this just to give it up now
– Sisebenze nzima kakhulu koku ukuze sinikezele ngoku
If you don’t swim, you’ll drown
– Ukuba awukudadi, uya kuntywila
But don’t move, honey
– Don’t go away, babe
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubonakala umi kakuhle apho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Unisex sweatshirt underwear
And I know now that I’m so down
– Ndiyazi nangoku kwakhona ukuba uhlale apha
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
– I lipstick yakho ngumsebenzi wobugcisa
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
– Ndifumene igama lakho tattoo entliziyweni yotolo
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Now i’m so down! (Thethethethe))
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Heee-heee, heee-heee, heee-heee, heee
Let’s get out, let’s get out
– Masiphume, masiphume
‘Cause this deadbeat town’s only here just to keep us down
– Ngenxa yokuba le dolophu ibulalayo ilapha nje ukuze isigcine phantsi
While I was out
– While i’m away
I found myself alone, just thinkin’
– “Ndiziva ndedwa” – ucinga.
If I showed up with a plane ticket
– Ukuba ndifumene itikiti lenqwelomoya
And a shiny diamond ring with your name on it
– Kwaye iringi yedayimani ekhazimlayo enegama lakho kuyo
Would you wanna run away too?
– Ngaba nawe uyafuna ukubaleka?
‘Cause all I really want is you
– Kuba yonke into endiyifunayo kuwe
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubonakala umi kakuhle apho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Unisex sweatshirt underwear
And I know now that I’m so down
– Ndiyazi nangoku kwakhona ukuba uhlale apha
I made a mixtape straight out of ’94
– Ndenza i-mixtape ngqo kwi – ‘ 94
I’ve got your ripped skinny jeans lying on the floor
– I’ve got your skinny sweatshirt sleeping on the floor
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Now i’m so down! (Thethethethe))
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Heee-heee, heee-heee, heee-heee, heee
