Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
Comin’ out of my cage and I’ve been doin’ just fine
– E haere mai ana I roto i taku whare herehere, ā, kua pai taku mahi
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all
– Gotta, gotta be down nā te mea e hiahia ana ahau ki te katoa
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
– I tīmata ki te kihi, me pēhea i pēnei ai te mutunga?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
– He kihi noa iho, he kihi noa iho
Now I’m falling asleep and she’s calling a cab
– Na kei te moe ahau, kei te karanga ia i tētahi waka
While he’s having a smoke and she’s taking a drag
– I a ia e kai ana i te paowa e hopu ana i te hau
Now they’re goin’ to bed and my stomach is sick
– Na ka haere ratou ki te moenga, a ka mate toku kopu
And it’s all in my head, but she’s touching his
– A kei roto katoa i toku mahunga, engari kei te pa atu ia ki tana
Chest now
– Te pouaka inaianei
He takes off her dress now
– Ka tangohia e ia tana kākahu ināianei
Let me go
– Tukua ahau kia haere
And I just can’t look, it’s killing me
– A kaore e taea e au te titiro, kei te whakamate i ahau
They’re taking control
– Kei te whakahaere ratou
Jealousy
– Te hae
Turning saints into the sea
– Te huri i ngā hunga tapu ki te moana
Swimming through sick lullabies
– Te kaukau i roto i ngā waiata moe mate
Choking on your alibi
– Te hīkoi i tō alibi
But it’s just the price I pay
– Engari ko te utu noa iho e utua ana e au
Destiny is calling me
– Kei te karanga mai a Destiny ki ahau
Open up my eager eyes
– Whakatuwherahia aku kanohi hiahia
‘Cause I’m Mr. Brightside
– ‘No te Mea ko Mr. Brightside ahau
I’m comin’ out of my cage and I’ve been doin’ just fine
– Kei te haere mai ahau i roto i taku whare herehere, ā, he pai taku mahi
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all
– Gotta, gotta be down nā te mea e hiahia ana ahau ki te katoa
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
– I tīmata ki te kihi, me pēhea i pēnei ai te mutunga?
(It was only a kiss) It was only a kiss
– (He kihi noa iho) he kihi noa Iho
Now I’m falling asleep and she’s calling a cab
– Na kei te moe ahau, kei te karanga ia i tētahi waka
While he’s havin’ a smoke and she’s taking a drag
– I a ia e paowa ana, e toia ana e ia
Now they’re goin’ to bed and my stomach is sick
– Na ka haere ratou ki te moenga, a ka mate toku kopu
And it’s all in my head, but she’s touching his
– A kei roto katoa i toku mahunga, engari kei te pa atu ia ki tana
