Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I don’t belong with big names
– Kāore au i te whai ingoa nui
Nor do I care ’bout fancy numbers
– Kāore hoki au e whakaaro ki ngā tau ahuareka
And I don’t like jewels
– A kaore au e pai ki nga whakapaipai
It doesn’t shine on my fingers
– E kore e whiti i runga i oku maihao
I hate to be at fancy parties
– E kino ana ahau ki te noho ki ngā rōpū ahuareka
I don’t care anymore
– Kāore au e aro atu
You’d call me a loser, oh
– Ka karanga koe ki ahau he tangata kua hinga, oh
Why won’t you compromise
– He aha koe e kore ai e whakaae
I’d rather give you an F
– He pai ake ki ahau te hoatu Ki a Koe He F
Fuck you, I am saying
– Fuck koe, e mea ana ahau
No, I wanna stay
– Kāore, e hiahia ana ahau ki te noho
With no subtle change
– Kaore he huringa ngawari
No lies over me
– Kāore he teka i runga i ahau
No, I wouldn’t be ashamed
– Kāore, kāore au e whakama
‘Cause I already have
– ‘No te mea kua whai ahau
Everything for me
– Ko nga mea katoa mōku
Maybe I’m losing
– Tērā pea kei te ngaro ahau
Losing me to hold a smile, to bear it all
– Te ngaro i ahau ki te pupuri i te ataata, ki te mau i te reira katoa
How can I fail, compromise, and lose myself?
– Me pēhea e taea ai e au te kore, te whakararu, me te ngaro i ahau?
So boy, I’m gonna smile
– Na, e tama, ka ataata ahau
Fuck you, I am saying
– Fuck koe, e mea ana ahau
Fuck you, I am saying
– Fuck koe, e mea ana ahau
No, I wanna stay
– Kāore, e hiahia ana ahau ki te noho
With no subtle change
– Kaore he huringa ngawari
No lies over me
– Kāore he teka i runga i ahau
No, I wouldn’t be ashamed
– Kāore, kāore au e whakama
‘Cause I already have
– ‘No te mea kua whai ahau
Everything for me (Everything for me, yeah)
– Nga mea katoa mo au (Nga Mea katoa mo au, yeah)
No, say no (Yeah, yeah)
– No, mea no (Yeah, yeah)
No, say no (Say no, say no, say no, yeah)
– No, mea no (Mea no, mea no, mea no, mea no, ae)
No, say no (Oh-ooh-oh)
– No, mea no (Oh-ooh-oh)
No, say no, oh
– Kāore, ki te kore, oh
