Listen to the tone
o-of your voice,
you got a grudge against me, you know (oh-oh).
If it’s not a fight,
I-I guess it’s right
that it’s your very own monologue (oh-oh).
Once you get into it there’s no chance
that I might just have a point,
that I may be on the right side of it.
‘Cause it’s always your call,
i-it’s over now
so I’ll be the one to back down (oh-oh).
Hoy no quiero hablar… ah-ah-ah-ah-ow!
Ya no juego más.
Si antes de empezar ya sabes
que yo pierdo.
No lo intentaré otra vez,
‘cause you’re right, and I’m wrong,
y en este juego siempre ganas.
You’re one step ahead.
You’re one step ahead.
You’re one step ahead… ah-ah-ah-ow!
Looking at the time,
I-I really don’t mind
I can be here all day (oh-oh).
For me it’s a bore,
but you just adore
to let the fighter in you come out and play.
Sé que soy mal perdedor,
pero soy mejor,
‘cause you’ve always been a lousy winner.
Listen to your words,
I-I don’t care,
and I’ll let you win against yourself (oh-oh).
So I’ll let it go…
No soporto más,
si tienes el poder para
cambiar las reglas.
Pierdo porque yo estoy
siempre un paso atrás, y tú,
one step ahead.
Get your satisfaction from
fighting like an idiot,
if you win this argument,
then I just win, period.
Keep on with your games,
‘cause it’s your own self you’re destroying,
sticks and stones will break my bones,
but you… you’re just annoying.
Get your rocks off by
fighting like a dumbass.
Baby, try and tell me
why you need to be that crass.
Keep the nonsense coming;
I’ll just go do something else now.
I can stop it when I want,
I’m sorry you don’t know how.
