Gearrthóg Físe
Lyrics
She’s me, I’m her in a different font
– Is mise í, is mise í i gcló difriúil
Just a few years younger, a new haircut
– Níl ach cúpla bliain níos óige, haircut nua
Very Leo of you with your Scorpio touch
– An-Leo de tú le do scairp dteagmháil
Now, now
– Anois, anois
Going down on her on your vintage rug
– Ag dul síos uirthi ar do ruga seanré
Bet she’s so impressed by your Basquiat
– Tá sí an – tógtha le Do Basquiat
And she thinks you’re deep in the ways you’re not
– Agus síleann sí go bhfuil tú domhain ar na bealaí nach bhfuil tú
Now, now
– Anois, anois
I can’t put it on her, she’s a sweet kid
– Ní féidir liom é a chur uirthi, is leanbh milis í
But she’s taking the bait like we all did
– Ach tá sí ag cur an bhaoite mar a rinne muid go léir
She looks
– Breathnaíonn sí
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Cosúil le gach ceann de do chailíní ach blonder
A little like me, just younger
– Beagán cosúil liomsa, díreach níos óige
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Geall is breá léi nuair a chloiseann sí tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe”
She looks
– Breathnaíonn sí
Like she could be your daughter
– Mar a d ‘fhéadfadh sí a bheith mar d’ iníon
Like me before I got smarter
– Cosúil liomsa sula bhfuair mé níos cliste
When I was flattered to hear you say
– Nuair a bhí mé flattered a chloisteáil tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe,” oh
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe, ” ó
You dim all the lights so you look real wise
– Laghdaíonn tú na soilse go léir ionas go bhféachann tú fíor-ciallmhar
As they trace the lines underneath your eyes
– Agus iad ag rianú na línte faoi do shúile
And mistake your charm for a cosmic sign
– Agus déan dearmad ar do charn le haghaidh comhartha cosmaí
Now, now
– Anois, anois
I can’t put it on them, it’s his best trick
– Ní féidir liom é a chur orthu, is é an cleas is fearr atá aige
And they’re taking the bait just like I did
– Agus tá siad ag cur an bhaoite díreach mar a rinne mé
She looks
– Breathnaíonn sí
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Cosúil le gach ceann de do chailíní ach blonder
A little like me, just younger
– Beagán cosúil liomsa, díreach níos óige
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Geall is breá léi nuair a chloiseann sí tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe”
She looks
– Breathnaíonn sí
Like she could be your daughter
– Mar a d ‘fhéadfadh sí a bheith mar d’ iníon
Like me before I got smarter
– Cosúil liomsa sula bhfuair mé níos cliste
When I was flattered to hear you say
– Nuair a bhí mé flattered a chloisteáil tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe”
Watched the tide rise up as high as you got on me
– Féach ar an taoide ag ardú chomh hard agus a fuair tú orm
Listening to Strawberry Letter 23
– Ag éisteacht Le Litir Sútha Talún 23
Hid my car at Carbon Beach so I wasn’t seen at yours
– Hid mo charr Ag Trá Carbóin mar sin ní raibh mé le feiceáil ag mise
You knew better of course
– Bhí a fhios agat níos fearr ar ndóigh
Oh, you’re so mature
– Is so mature
You’re so mature
– Is so mature
Oh
– Ó
She looks
– Breathnaíonn sí
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Cosúil le gach ceann de do chailíní ach blonder
A little like me, just younger
– Beagán cosúil liomsa, díreach níos óige
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Geall is breá léi nuair a chloiseann sí tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe”
She looks (She looks)
– Breathnaíonn sí (breathnaíonn Sí)
Like she could be your daughter
– Mar a d ‘fhéadfadh sí a bheith mar d’ iníon
Like me before I got smarter
– Cosúil liomsa sula bhfuair mé níos cliste
When I was flattered to hear you say
– Nuair a bhí mé flattered a chloisteáil tú ag rá
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Tá tú chomh aibí d’ aois, babe”
Watched the tide rise up as high as you got on me

Hid my car at Carbon Beach so I wasn’t seen at yours
– Hid mo charr Ag Trá Carbóin mar sin ní raibh mé le feiceáil ag mise
You’re so mature for your age, babe
– Tá tú chomh aibí do d ‘ aois, babe
