Lyrics
Elphie, now that we’re friends, I’ve decided to make you my new project
– Elphie, nunc quod amici sumus, novum consilium meum te facere decrevi
Oh, you really don’t have to do that
– Tu vero non audebas me admonere
I know!
– Scio!
That’s what makes me so nice
– Quod suus quid mihi tam delicatus
Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I
– Cum aliquis minus felix quam ego video
And let’s face it, right? Who isn’t less fortunate than I?
– Et lets faciem eam, ius? Quis non minus felix quam ego?
My tender heart tends to start to bleed
– Tenera cor meum tendit incipere sanguinem
And when someone needs a makeover, I simply have to take over
– Et cum aliquis elit eget, ego simpliciter accipere
I know, I know exactly what they need
– Scio, prorsus quid opus sit scio
And even in your case
– Etiam in casu tuo
Though it’s the toughest case I’ve yet to face
– Tamen suus durior si ego tamen ad faciem
Don’t worry, I’m determined to succeed
– Nolite ergo solliciti esse, ego sum constituta succedant
Follow my lead
– Sequere plumbum meum
And yes, indeed
– Et quod sic, quidem
You will be
– Tu eris
Popular
– Popularis
You’re gonna be popular
– Es agnus dei esse popularis
I’ll teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys
– Ego te docebo propriis insidiis cum pueris loqui
Little ways to flirt and flounce, ooh!
– Parum vias amas et floccis, ooh!
I’ll show you what shoes to wear, how to fix your hair
– Ego ostendam tibi quid calceamenta ad induendum, quam figere comas
Everything that really counts to be
– Omne quod vere esse computat
Popular
– Popularis
I’ll help you be popular
– Et comes et servus auxiliumque viae
You’ll hang with the right cohorts, you’ll be good at sports
– Youll ‘dependeat in eo cum dextra cohortes, youll’ exsisto bonus ludis
Know the slang you’ve got to know
– Scire funda iecit te scire
So let’s start ’cause you’ve got an awfully long way to go
– Sic lets ‘satus’ causam tu got atrox longum iter
Don’t be offended by my frank analysis
– Não encontrou a resposta para sua dúvida
Think of it as personality dialysis
– Cogita eam ut personalitatem dialysis
Now that I’ve chosen to become a pal
– Ego autem elegit ut pal facti sunt
A sister and adviser, there’s nobody wiser
– Soror et consiliarius, illic ‘ nullus prudentior
Not when it comes to
– Non quando veniat
Popular
– Popularis
I know about popular
– Nescio quam populare
And with an assist from me to be who you’ll be
– Et de auxilio tuo quam vehementer exsultat!
Instead of dreary who-you-were
– Quam doloremque qui et sunt
Well, are!
– Bene, es!
There’s nothing that can stop you from becoming populer… —lar!
– Nihil est quod te prohibere possit ne populari fiat… – lar!
La-la, la-la
– La-la-la-la
We’re gonna make you popular
– Sumus agnus dei facere popularibus
When I see depressing creatures
– Si quando deprimat
With unprepossessing features
– Cum features unpossessing
I remind them on their own behalf to think of
– Admoneo ut eorum pro nobis cogitare
Celebrated heads of state
– Principes civitatis celebratur
Or especially great communicators
– Si qui communicant
Did they have brains or knowledge?
– Et si est scientia in excelso?”.
Don’t make me laugh
– Non facite me ridere
They were
– Erant
Popular
– Popularis
Right!
– Ius!
It’s all about popular
– Suus ‘ circa omnes vulgaris
It’s not about aptitude, it’s the way you’re viewed
– Suus ‘non circa habilitatem, suus’ via vos erant ‘ viewed
So it’s very shrewd to be
– Sic suus ‘ valde prudens esse
Very, very popular like me, me
– Valde, valde populare sicut me, me
And though you protest
– Et si non implet longaeuae tempora vitae,
Your disinterest
– Tuam rem
I know clandestinely
– Scio clandestine
You’re gonna grin and bear it, your newfound popularity
– Tu es agnus dei atque rideat ferre, nova popularis tuus
Woo!
– Houla!il est grand!
La-la, la-la
– La-la-la-la
La-la, la-la
– La-la-la-la
La-la, ooh
– Ha ha ha.
You’ll be popular
– Et factus est popularis
Just not quite as popular as me
– Non tam populare quam me
