Lyrics & Translation
She's only 16, and she already wants to get married
She's mixed race, her mother is French and her father is Caribbean
From a young age, she’s been collecting men by the thousands
But she doesn’t know that everyone in the neighborhood knows her
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she's all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she's all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
She doesn’t do anything at home, lying on her bed all year round, yeah
Staring at the wall like she’s in prison, disrespecting her mother like she’s right
Stop that, my girl, what you're doing hurts us and doesn’t pay
Making a decision, letting her go—that’s out of the question, I can't do it
From now on, you'll stay here; I’ll lock you up at home
Let's see who’s right; I’m disconnecting the Wi-Fi, we need to get back to reason
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
She runs away from home, crying on her bed, she puts on her jacket, yeah
Running under pressure, she broke her chip, now they’re tracing her, yeah
Her parents panic, this is serious, little princess sneaked out under her sheets
We know life and its dramas, a wild night, the cops
Now you’re pregnant, but no, no
We told you, but no, no
Where's your man? He left you, where's your man?
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
Oh, a mess, problems won't be long coming, yeah, yeah
Everything is ruined, I let the future handle it, yeah, yeah
Life’s a fight; it’s not paradise, oh
I can't see the future, ah, ah
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, oh, she’s all over the place
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
Oh, she's a mess, yeah, she's a mess
A mess, she’s all over the place
A mess, she’s all over the place
A mess, she’s all over the place
A mess, she’s all over the place
