Lyrics
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Sawubona, sawubona, sawubona, sawubona
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Sawubona, sawubona, sawubona, sawubona
Simmer down, simmer down
– Simmer phansi, simmer phansi
They say we’re too young now to amount to anything else
– Bathi sisebancane kakhulu manje ukuba sifinyelele kunoma yini enye
But look around
– Kodwa bheka nxazonke
We worked too damn hard for this just to give it up now
– Sasebenza kanzima kakhulu ukuba lokhu kungadedelwa manje
If you don’t swim, you’ll drown
– Uma ungabhukudi, uzominza
But don’t move, honey
– Kodwa ungahambi, uju
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubukeka umi kahle lapho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Ngigqoke izingubo zangaphansi Zasemelika
And I know now that I’m so down
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi sengiphansi kakhulu
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
– Lipstick yakho stain kuwumsebenzi wobuciko
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
– Ngathola igama lakho tattooed enhliziyweni umcibisholo
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi ngiphansi kakhulu (Hey!)
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Sawubona, sawubona, sawubona, sawubona
Let’s get out, let’s get out
– Ake siphume, ake siphume
‘Cause this deadbeat town’s only here just to keep us down
– Ngoba leli dolobha elingenamuntu lilapha kuphela ukuze nje lisigcine phansi
While I was out
– Ngesikhathi ngingekho
I found myself alone, just thinkin’
– Ngazithola ngingedwa, ngicabanga nje
If I showed up with a plane ticket
– Uma ngifika nginethikithi lendiza
And a shiny diamond ring with your name on it
– Futhi indandatho yedayimane ecwebezelayo enegama lakho kuyo
Would you wanna run away too?
– Ingabe nawe ufuna ukubaleka?
‘Cause all I really want is you
– Ngoba konke engikufunayo ngempela nguwe
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubukeka umi kahle lapho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Ngigqoke izingubo zangaphansi Zasemelika
And I know now that I’m so down
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi sengiphansi kakhulu
I made a mixtape straight out of ’94
– Ngenza i-mixtape ngqo ku – ’94
I’ve got your ripped skinny jeans lying on the floor
– Nginamajean akho amancane aqhekekile alele phansi
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi ngiphansi kakhulu (Hey!)
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Sawubona, sawubona, sawubona, sawubona
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubukeka umi kahle lapho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Ngigqoke izingubo zangaphansi Zasemelika
And I know now that I’m so down
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi sengiphansi kakhulu
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
– Lipstick yakho stain kuwumsebenzi wobuciko
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
– Ngathola igama lakho tattooed enhliziyweni umcibisholo
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi ngiphansi kakhulu (Hey!)
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey
– Sawubona, sawubona, sawubona, sawubona
You look so perfect standing there
– Ubukeka umi kahle lapho
In my American Apparel underwear
– Ngigqoke izingubo zangaphansi Zasemelika
And I know now that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Futhi manje sengiyazi ukuthi ngiphansi kakhulu (Hey!)
Your lipstick stain is a work of art (Hey!)
– Amabala akho e-lipstick awumsebenzi wobuciko (Hey!)
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart (Hey!)
– Ngathola igama lakho elidwetshwe enhliziyweni yomcibisholo (Hey!)
And I know now (Hey!) that I’m so down (Hey!)
– Futhi ngiyazi manje (Hey!) ukuthi ngiphansi kakhulu (Hey!)
