Kupu Tūpato
Oh boy
– E te tamaiti
You said your phone was broken, just forgot to charge it
– I kii koe kua pakaru to waea, kua wareware noa ki te utu
Whole outfit you’re wearing, God, I hope it’s ironic
– Ko te kakahu katoa e mau ana koe, E Te Atua, ko te tumanako he mea whakamiharo
Did you just say you’re finished? Didn’t know we started
– I mea noa koe kua oti koe? Kāore mātou i mōhio kua tīmata mātou
It’s all just so familiar, baby, what do you call it?
– He mea mōhio noa iho, e te pēpi, he aha tāu e karanga ai?
Stupid
– He maamaa
Or is it slow?
– He puhoi rānei?
Maybe it’s useless?
– Pea te reira huakore?
But there’s a cuter word for it, I know
– Engari he kupu reka ake mō taua mea, e mōhio ana ahau
Man-child
– Tangata-tamaiti
Why you always come a-running to me?
– He aha koe i haere mai ai ki ahau i nga wa katoa?
Fuck my life
– Fuck toku ora
Won’t you let an innocent woman be?
– E kore e tukua e koe he wahine harakore kia?
Never heard of self-care
– Kāore i rongo i te tiaki whaiaro
Half your brain just ain’t there
– Ko te haurua o tō roro kāore i reira
Man-child
– Tangata-tamaiti
Why you always come a-running, taking all my loving from me?
– He aha koe i haere mai ai i nga wa katoa a-rere, tango i aku aroha katoa i ahau?
Why so sexy if so dumb?
– He aha i tino sexahua ai mēnā he tino poauau?
And how survive the Earth so long?
– Me pehea te ora i te Whenua kia roa?
If I’m not there, it won’t get done
– Ki te kore ahau i reira, e kore e kia meatia te reira
I choose to blame your mom
– Ka whiriwhiri ahau ki te whakapae i to mama
Man-child

Oh, I like my boys playing hard to get

And I like my men all incompetent
