• I Can Translate

You take a shot baby,
I take a stab,
Shits about to go down at the language lab,
Some are "pour favor”,
Some are "si’l vous plait”,
Talk is cheap, baby, anyway

Get ready to go,
If you're willing and able,
But you're bound to give her novel
‘bout my tower of Babel

Yes, I get rewarded
For my gifted gab,
All the pretty girls at the language lab

It's always hurry up and wait,
You know I can relate,
If you've got another language,
Baby, I can translate

I can translate,
I can translate,
I can be the conduit
Between a dozen heads of state,
Who would otherwise be trying to kill each other

Speaking Cantonese just to get my kicks,
French is just Romanian, that's been remixed,
Come on, pretty baby, let's jump in the next cab,
Destination: the language lab

Dumb to chalk it up to fate,
If there's too much on your plate,
And if you're lost in translation, baby,
I can translate

I can translate,
I can translate,
And when my work is done,
Misunderstanding will abate,
And you won't have to press '1' for English

Ooh! Huh! Ooh!
Ooh! Huh! Ooh! Ooh!

There's no need to speak,
When looking into your eyes,
Cause lies in foreign languages are still just lies,
This is what I get for my gifted gab ‒
All the broken hearts at the language lab

You're always running late,
For your linguistic blind date,
And if you're looking for some reading, baby,
I can translate,


I can translate,
I can translate,
I can make your mumbo jumbo and your noise cooperate,
And your romance is no longer Greek to me

Oh!
