Oh, chemistry is rare
– Aue, he onge te matū
Fucked me on the stairs
– Fucked ahau i runga i te pikitanga
For once in my life, I didn’t care that I was scared
– I te wā kotahi i roto i toku ora, kāore au i te whakaaro he wehi ahau
Who would see the beast livin’ inside me?
– Ko wai e kite i te kararehe e noho ana i roto i ahau?
It’s creepin’ up, I’m sweepin’ up
– Kei te piki haere, kei te piki haere ahau
All of these things that I have done
– Ko enei mea katoa I mahia e au
Things that I have done
– Nga mea kua mahia e au
Things that I have done, oh
– Nga mea i mahia e au, oh
Oh, I am well aware
– E mōhio ana ahau
With that burnin’ stare
– Ki taua titiro e mura ana
If this ends like all things do, I have come prepared
– Ki te mutu tenei rite nga mea katoa mahi, kua tae mai ahau rite
I have clipped a leash and left you by the tree
– Kua tapahia e ahau he taura a mahue koe i te rakau
And in the yard, you’re keepin’ guard
– A, i te marae, kei te tiaki koe
You’re right where you need to be, oh
– Kei te tika koe ki te wahi e hiahia ana koe ki te kia, oh
But don’t you feel a little stuck
– Otiia e kore eel koe i te iti piri
Every time we’re out of touch?
– I nga wa katoa ka kore tatou e pa atu?
I will dig up what you hide
– Ka keri ahau i nga mea e huna ana e koe
Crying doesn’t suit you well
– Kaore te tangi e pai ki a koe
Don’t you know I’ll never tell a soul about our secret life?
– E kore koe e mohio e kore ahau e korero ki te wairua e pā ana ki to tatou ora ngaro?
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Oh, inside of the house
– Aue, i roto i te whare
The cat chases the mouse
– Ka whai te ngeru i te kiore
Your mother looks and says
– Ka titiro tō whaea, ka mea
“Some things we just don’t talk about”
– “Ko etahi mea kaore matou e korero mo”
You better watch your mouth
– He pai ake kia mataara koe i to mangai
Don’t let yourself get proud
– Kaua e whakapehapeha
Don’t let yourself forget the message left inside the couch
– Kaua e wareware ki te karere i mahue i roto i te moenga
(One, two, three, four)
– (Kotahi, rua, toru, wha)
But don’t you feel a little stuck
– Otiia e kore eel koe i te iti piri
Every time we’re out of touch?
– I nga wa katoa ka kore tatou e pa atu?
I will dig up what you hide
– Ka keri ahau i nga mea e huna ana e koe
Crying doesn’t suit you well
– Kaore te tangi e pai ki a koe
Don’t you know I’ll never tell a soul about our secret life?
– E kore koe e mohio e kore ahau e korero ki te wairua e pā ana ki to tatou ora ngaro?
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Secret life
– Te ora tūmataiti
Oh, down the drain you go
– Aue, ki raro i te rerenga ka haere koe
You poor, unfortunate soul
– Ko koe te wairua rawakore, te wairua kino
You got yourself involved with someone you really didn’t know
– I uru koe ki tētahi kāore koe i tino mōhio
But what I’d like to do
– Ko te aha e hiahia ana ahau ki te mahi
Is make a deal with you
– He mahi ki a koe
Make a deal with you
– Hanga he mahi ki a koe
Make a deal with you
– Hanga he mahi ki a koe
Make a deal with you
– Hanga he mahi ki a koe
Make a deal with you
– Hanga he mahi ki a koe
Make a deal with you
– Hanga he mahi ki a koe
With you, with you, with you, with you, oh
– Ki a koe, ki a koe, ki a koe, ki a koe, oh
Ooh, woah
– Ko te ooh, ko te woah
Woah, woah
– Ko Woah, ko woah
Woah, woah
– Ko Woah, ko woah
Woah, woah
– Ko Woah, ko woah
Woah, woah

Chemistry is rare

Chemistry is rare, oh yes, it is
– He onge te matū, ae, he
Chemistry is rare, oh
– He onge te matū, oh
Oh
– Aue
