Sometimes my body seems so alien to me
– Tin biaha mi kurpa ta parse mi asina straño
I quiet it down by watching TV
– Mi ta keda ketu mirando televishon
Grow restless and grow hungry
– E ta krese ansioso i hamber
As the water rises up around me
– Mientras e awa ta subi rond di mi
You come onscreen
– Bo ta bini na e pantaya
So good-looking it’s obscene
– Asina bunita ku e ta obsceno
I put my fist into my mouth and scream
– Mi ta pone mi man den mi boka i mi ta grita
Some things, it seems, are catching up with me
– Algun kos, aparentemente, ta yega mi
And as it rises to my chin, I should really stop watching
– I ora e ta subi te na mi barbel, mi mester stòp di wak
And as I reach for the remote, it is rushing down my throat
– I mientras mi ta yega e control remoto, mi ta kore den mi garganta
I let it in, I start to swim
– Mi ta laga e hòmber drenta, mi ta kuminsá landa
I grow many arms and legs and then I start to sing
– Mi ta krese hopi brasa i pianan i despues mi ta kuminsá kanta
And all of my peers, they had such potential
– I tur mi kompañeronan, tabatin asina tantu potencial
The swamp, it took them down
– E palu a derotá nan
And my love, I have to tell you
– I mi amor, mi tin ku bisa bo
I kissed them all and let them drown, oh
– E base di tur e pone hogar, o
You didn’t see me, just another drunken groupie
– Bo no a bisti mi, solamente un otro grupo borracho
So when your hand reached out
– Pues ora bo man a plama
I just pushed you further down
– So bo empujé mas abou
Well, do you see me now?
– Pues, bo ta mira mi awor?
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ai, ai-ai, ai-ai, ai-ai, ai (bo Mi ta mira?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah – ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me now?)
– Ai, ai-ai, ai-ai, ai-ai, ai (bo Mi ta mira awor?)
Creature from the deep, do I haunt you in your sleep?
– Bebi di profundo, bo lo pèrsiguiendo mientras drumi?
My tentacles so tender, as I caress your cheek
– Mi tentáculos aki delikado, mientras caricom di kara
Did you know how big I would become?
– Bo sa ta grandi ku a laga ta?
And how much I would eat?
– Bo i kuantu kome?
So glamorous and ravenous as I drag you off your feet
– Aki djamars i oraz manera rato di bo pia
There’s nothing you can do
– No tin nada nan por hasi
Some things, it seems, are catching up with you
– Algun kos aparentemente ta yega te na bo
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (bo ta mira mi?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah – ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (bo ta mira mi?)
You said I would be nothing, but look, I’m really something
– Bo a bisa ku e no ta nada, pero wak, mi ta algu
Many arms around the mast as your ship starts cracking
– Hopi brasa rond di e mastela mientras su boto ta kuminsá kibra
Will you see me through the pain?
– Bo ta mira mi dor di doló?
Have you changed? Well, so have I
– Bo a kambia? Pues, ami tambe
As I fix you in the gaze of my one unblinking eye
– Mientras mi ta wak mi wowo sin parpadea
Do I terrify?
– Mi ta spanta?
And all of my peers, they had such potential
– I tur mi kompañeronan, tabatin asina tantu potencial
The swamp, it took them down
– E palu a derotá nan
And my love, I have to tell you
– I mi amor, mi tin ku bisa bo
I kissed them all and let them drown, oh
– Mi a sunchi nan tur i a laga nan dronka, oh
You didn’t see me, just another drunken groupie
– Bo no a bisti mi, solamente un otro grupo borracho
So when your hand reached out
– Pues ora bo man a plama
I just pushed you further down
– Mi a djis hinka bo mas abou
Well, do you see me now?
– Pues, bo ta mira mi awor?
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (bo ta mira mi?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah – ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me now?)
– Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (bo ta mira mi awor?)
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
