Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Peter, what the hell?

Where's your ski mask?

It's kind of hard to breathe in those things,

so I just dressed up like Harry Potter.

(sighs)

(sighs)

All right, let's go.

Lois, if anything should happen to us,

I want you to know, I haven't been happy for a long time.

Yes, Peter, you've told me that, like, ten times.

All right, all the lights are out.

They must be asleep.

It's go time.

Peter, what the hell was that?

That's what you do, Lois.

Okay, now, take this walkie-talkie

and confirm that I'm at the various checkpoints.

Oh. Okay.

"Peter up on a telephone pole"?

Check.

"Peter cutting the wires to the alarm"?

Check.

"Sexy Peter

distracting the guards"?

Check.

Hello, boys.

Come up and have sex with me some time.

"Van full of Peters who all have stern faces

because they're about to pull off a heist"?

Check.

"Upside-down Peter who isn't revealed to be upside-down

until the camera spins around and shows that he is"?

Check.

"Peter in an open airplane door

slapping other Peters on the back as they parachute out"?

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Check!

"Super gymnastic Asian Peter

contorted into a box that will be delivered into the house"?

Hai!

"Peter who hasn't answered

because something has gone terribly wrong"?

Peter? Peter, are you there?

Now, let's go get that kid.

Okay, he's in the left upstairs bedroom.

All right, you keep the car going in case there's trouble.

All right, I got him, Lois.

(quietly): Peter, what the-- that's not Scotty!

That's Ben!

Oh. Well, you know, we ain't known this family that long.

I'm still learning everybody's names.

Damn it, put him back and go get Scotty, the baby!

Okay, so I'll go get the baby, and while I'm doing that,

maybe you do something about that snatchy tone.

Lois, is this the right one?!

Shh! Peter!

Yes. Now, come on.

HOPE: What was that?

BEN: I don't know.

It came from Scotty's room.

(tires screech)

All right, we did it!

Yes! We got the kid and the treasure.

Peter, there's no treasure.

Oh, well, never mind, then.
