Daddy’s home for the first time in weeks
– Ikhaya likatata okokuqala kwiiveki
Got the dinner on the table, tell the kids it’s time to eat
– Mema umntwana ukuba adle isidlo sakusihlwa, xelela umntwana ukuba ixesha lokutya
And I made my baby’s favourite, but he didn’t seem to care
– Ndandimthanda kakhulu umntwana wam, kodwa wayebonakala engakhathali
I just tell myself he’s jet lagged and I’m glad to have him here
– Ndiyamxelela nje ukuba u-jet lagged kwaye ndiyavuya ukuba naye apha
Then you showed me a photo on Instagram
– Emva koko wandibonisa ifoto Kwi Instagram
It was how you grabbed your phone back right out of my hands
– Yayiyindlela oyibambe ngayo ifowuni yakho ezandleni zam
So I read your text, and now I regret it
– Ngoko ndifunda itekisi yakho, kwaye ngoku ndiyazisola
I can’t get my head ’round how you’ve been playing tennis
– Andinakuyifumana intloko yam ‘ udlala njani i-tennis
If it was just sex, I wouldn’t be jealous
– Ukuba kuphela ngesondo, andiyi kuba nomona
You won’t play with me
– Awudlali ngam
And who’s Madeline?
– Ngubani Umadeline?
I need to be alone, so I took myself to bed
– Ndifuna ukuba ndedwa, ngoko ndalala
I got a lot of information, now I can’t even process
– Ndinezinto ezininzi ulwazi, ngoku andinaku nkqu inkqubo
So I wrote a little email and I told you what I saw
– Ndibhalele i imeyile encinci kwaye ndikuxelele into endiyibonileyo
Then you came up to the bedroom and you made it all my fault
– Emva koko uye kwigumbi lokulala kwaye wenze konke ityala lam
But you moved the goalposts, you’ve broken the rules
– Kodwa uhambise iiposti, waphula imithetho
I tried to accommodate but you took me for a fool
– Ndazama ukuhlala kodwa undithatha njengesidenge
So I read your text, and now I regret it
– Ngoko ndifunda itekisi yakho, kwaye ngoku ndiyazisola
I can’t get my head ’round how you’ve been playing tennis
– Andinakuyifumana intloko yam ‘ udlala njani i-tennis
If it was just sex, I wouldn’t be jealous
– Ukuba kuphela ngesondo, andiyi kuba nomona
You won’t play with me
– Awudlali ngam
And who the fuck is Madeline?
– Who’s Batshit Crazy?
Da, da-da, da-da-da, who’s Madeline? (Who’s Madeline?)
– Da, da-da, da-da, ngubani Umadeline? Ngubani Umadeline?)
Da, da-da, da-da-da, who’s Madeline? (Who’s Madeline?)
– Da, da-da, da-da, ngubani Umadeline? Ngubani Umadeline?)
Da, da-da, da-da-da, who’s Madeline? (Who’s Madeline?)
– Da, da-da, da-da, ngubani Umadeline? Ngubani Umadeline?)
Da, da-da, da-da-da, who’s Madeline? (No, but who is Madeline, actually?)
– Da, da-da, da-da, ngubani Umadeline? (Yes, yes, who Is Madeline?))
