Lyrics & Translation

[English]

okay tomorrow oh and I should mention

this is gonna rock your world tomorrow

I'm taking you to my personal tailor

Taylor Barney I make negative 300 a week

and I need every negative Penny of that

for my wedding relax my guide is

everything for one-third the cost and

there is no way you're getting married

in that sarcastic quotation marks suit

tomorrow noon my tailor

no thanks dude

noon noon okay see you then

well I don't know if I'd feel a little

step for turning down a huge opportunity

to chase some guy I'd only known two

months but this isn't just some guy this

is Ted he's amazing he's the best guy I

know yeah in America but German guys I

would let them bread my schnitzel any

day if you know what I mean

I really don't

oh excuse me ma'am this bastard's kicked

thanks oh

that's okay guys I hate it just horrible

shorten the front long in the back that

is the mullet of wedding dresses how am

it's too soon

oh speak of the devil hello hey random

question how do you feel about cats cats

hated the musical of the animal a cat

person why am I not surprised

why does Ted want to know if I like cats

maybe he's gonna buy you one

I did hear barking in the background

maybe he's in a pet store does he want

us to get a cat together maybe he's

using an adorable kitty to guilt you

into staying oh that is low

do you really think that's what he's

doing oh I wouldn't even wait to find

  ➔ The clause ""if I'd feel"" uses *if* + *would* to talk about an imagined situation that is unlikely or unreal.

• I would be on the next plane of Germany.

  ➔ Modal verb "would" for hypothetical future

  ➔ The word ""would"" shows that the speaker is talking about something that is only imagined or not certain to happen.

• maybe he's using an adorable kitty to guilt you into staying

  ➔ Infinitive of purpose (to + verb)

  ➔ The phrase ""to guilt you into staying"" uses the infinitive "to" + verb to express the purpose of his action.

• what makes a bride beautiful is that she's just happy to be getting married

  ➔ Noun clause as subject

• we can beat the odds odd schmods it's gonna work
