Origineel
[Refrain]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
[Verse 1]
I’m packed and I’m holding, I’m smiling
She’s living, she’s golden, she lives for me
Says she lives for me
Ovation, her own motivation
She comes ‘round and she goes down on me
And I make her smile like a drug for you
Do ever what you want to do, coming over you
Keep on smiling what we go through
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
[Pre-Chorus]
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
Come on like a freak show, takes the stage
We give them the games we play, she said
[Chorus]
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
I want something else
I’m not listening when you say
Goodbye
[Refrain]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
[Verse 2]
The sky was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there, some place back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break
It won’t stop, I won’t come down
I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again, then I bumped again
[Pre-Chorus]
Said how do I get back there
To the place where I fell asleep inside you?
How do I get myself back to the place
Where you said?
[Chorus]
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
I want something else
I’m not listening when you say
Goodbye
[Bridge]
I believe in the sand beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
And the four right chords can make me cry
And when I’m with you I feel like I could die
And that would be all right, all right
And when the plane came in
She said she was crashing
The velvet it rips in the city
We tripped on the urge to feel alive
But now I’m struggling to survive
Those days you were wearing that velvet dress
You’re the priestess I must confess
Those little red panties, they pass the test
Slide up around the belly face
Down on the mattress one
And you hold me and we are broken
Still it’s all that I want to do, just a little now
Feel myself head made of the ground
I’m scared, I’m not coming down, no, no
And I won’t run for my life
She’s got her jaws now locked down in a smile
But nothing is all right, all right
[Chorus]
And I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby
I want something else
Not listening when you say
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
[Refrain]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
[Outro: Stephan Jenkins]
The sky was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there, some place back there
In the place we would start out lives
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
Vertaling
[Refrein]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
[Verse 1]
I’m packed and I’m holding, I’m smiling
She’s living, she’s golden, she lives for me
Says she lives for me
Ovation, her own motivation
She comes ‘round and she goes down on me
En ik laat haar glimlachen als een drug voor jou
Doe ooit wat je wilt doen, komt over je heen
Blijf glimlachen wat we doormaken
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
[Pre-Chorus]
En ik spreek tot jou als het refrein tot het couplet
Hak een andere lijn als een coda met een vloek
Come on like a freak show, takes the stage
We geven ze de spelletjes die we spelen, zei ze
[refrein]
Ik wil iets anders
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
Ik wil iets anders
I’m not listening when you say
Vaarwel
[Refrein]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
[Vers 2]
De lucht was goud, het was roos
I was taking sip of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there, some place back there
Lachend op de foto’s die jij zou nemen
Crystal meth gebruiken zal je optillen tot je breekt
Het zal niet stoppen, ik zal niet naar beneden komen
I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again, then I bumped again
[Pre-Chorus]
Said how do I get back there
Naar de plaats waar ik in slaap viel in jou?
Hoe krijg ik mezelf terug naar de plaats
Waar je zei?
[refrein]
Ik wil iets anders
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby
Ik wil iets anders
I’m not listening when you say
Vaarwel
[Brug]
Ik geloof in het zand onder mijn tenen
Het strand geeft een gevoel, een aards gevoel
Ik geloof in het geloof dat groeit
En de vier juiste akkoorden kunnen me aan het huilen maken
En als ik bij jou ben, voel ik me alsof ik kan sterven
En dat zou goed zijn, goed
En toen het vliegtuig binnenkwam
She said she was crashing
The velvet it rips in the city
We struikelden over de drang om te voelen dat we leefden
Maar nu heb ik moeite om te overleven
Die dagen dat je die fluwelen jurk droeg
Jij bent de priesteres moet ik bekennen
Dat kleine rode slipje, ze doorstaan de test
Schuift omhoog rond het buikgezicht
Neer op de matras een
En je houdt me vast en we zijn gebroken
Toch is het alles wat ik wil doen, een beetje nu
Voel me hoofd van de grond gemaakt
Ik ben bang, ik kom niet naar beneden, nee, nee
En ik zal niet rennen voor mijn leven
Ze heeft haar kaken nu opeengeklemd in een glimlach
Maar niets is goed, alles is goed
[Chorus]
And I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life, baby
I want something else
Niet luisteren als je zegt
Vaarwel
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
[Refrein]
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
[Outro: Stephan Jenkins]
The sky was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there, some place back there
In the place we would start our lives
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
