She’s me, I’m her in a different font
– Si ass ech, ech sinn hatt an enger Anerer Schrëft
Just a few years younger, a new haircut
– Just e puer joer méi jonk, en neie Frisur
Very Leo of you with your Scorpio touch
– Ganz Leo vun iech mat ärem Scorpio Touch
Now, now
– Elo, elo
Going down on her on your vintage rug
– Gitt op hatt op ärem Vintage Teppech
Bet she’s so impressed by your Basquiat
– Ech wetten hatt ass sou beandrockt vun ärem Basquiat
And she thinks you’re deep in the ways you’re not
– A si mengt dir sidd déif An De Weeër déi dir net sidd
Now, now
– Elo, elo
I can’t put it on her, she’s a sweet kid
– Ech kann et net op hatt setzen, si ass e séiss Kand
But she’s taking the bait like we all did
– Awer hatt hëlt De Köder wéi mir all maachen
She looks
– Si gesäit aus
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Wéi all Är Meedercher, awer blonder
A little like me, just younger
– E bësse wéi ech, nëmme méi jonk
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Ech wetten hatt huet et gär wann hatt dech héiert soen
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Du bass sou reif fir däi Alter, Schatz”
She looks
– Si gesäit aus
Like she could be your daughter
– Wéi wann hatt är Duechter kéint sinn
Like me before I got smarter
– Wéi ech ier ech méi clever ginn
When I was flattered to hear you say
– Wéi ech gefleegt war dech ze héieren soen
“You’re so mature for your age, babe,” oh
– “Du bass sou reif fir däin Alter, Schatz,” oh
You dim all the lights so you look real wise
– Dir dimmt all Luuchten sou datt dir wierklech schlau ausgesäit
As they trace the lines underneath your eyes
– Wärend Dir D ‘ Linnen ënner ären Aen verfollegt
And mistake your charm for a cosmic sign
– A verwiesselt äre Charme mat engem kosmeschen Zeechen
Now, now
– Elo, elo
I can’t put it on them, it’s his best trick
– Ech kann et net op iech setzen, et ass säi beschten Trick
And they’re taking the bait just like I did
– A si huelen De Köder genau wéi ech
She looks
– Si gesäit aus
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Wéi all Är Meedercher, awer blonder
A little like me, just younger
– E bësse wéi ech, nëmme méi jonk
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Ech wetten hatt huet et gär wann hatt dech héiert soen
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Du bass sou reif fir däi Alter, Schatz”
She looks
– Si gesäit aus
Like she could be your daughter
– Wéi wann hatt är Duechter kéint sinn
Like me before I got smarter
– Wéi ech ier ech méi clever ginn
When I was flattered to hear you say
– Wéi ech gefleegt war dech ze héieren soen
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Du bass sou reif fir däi Alter, Schatz”
Watched the tide rise up as high as you got on me
– Kuckt wéi D ‘ Gezei sou héich eropgeet wéi dir op mech komm sidd
Listening to Strawberry Letter 23
– Strawberry bréif héieren 23
Hid my car at Carbon Beach so I wasn’t seen at yours
– Verstoppt mäin Auto um Kuelestoffbeach sou datt ech net bei iech gesi gouf
You knew better of course
– Dir wousst natierlech besser
Oh, you’re so mature
– Oh, dir sidd sou erwuesse
You’re so mature
– Dir sidd sou reift
Oh
– Oh
She looks
– Si gesäit aus
Like all of your girls but blonder
– Wéi all Är Meedercher, awer blonder
A little like me, just younger
– E bësse wéi ech, nëmme méi jonk
Bet she loves when she hears you say
– Ech wetten hatt huet et gär wann hatt dech héiert soen
“You’re so mature for your age, babe”
– “Du bass sou reif fir däi Alter, Schatz”
She looks (She looks)
– Si gesäit aus (hatt gesäit aus)
Like she could be your daughter
– Wéi wann hatt är Duechter kéint sinn
Like me before I got smarter
– Wéi ech ier ech méi clever ginn
When I was flattered to hear you say

– Verstoppt mäin Auto um Kuelestoffbeach sou datt ech net bei iech gesi gouf
You’re so mature for your age, babe
– Dir sidd sou reift Fir äert Alter, Puppelchen
