[English]

Hahaha, oh

Is it just me?

No, I am so over the summer, I went to this place with, like, 2 Milch-, Michelin stars, it's like so

I watched her walk in

Already pissed 'cause he said somethin' dumb in the car and it done severed under her skin

Long dress in the wind

He made the rounds, kinda leavin' her out

So they'll part in the crowd, what she took on the chin

I read her lips, wasn't for me to see, nothin' here seems to be

He sucks, but he's rich

Laughin' with crazy eyes, that's when I realized

I don't care that I'm at the chateau with the whole A-list (sorry, God forbid)

Can't lie, but I'm thinkin', like, high school was better than this (yeah, it probably is)

Are we legally bound to stand in this circle lookin' around? Oh

Like, shit, how'd I even get in? And I'd love to get out, oh

I saw an indie darlin' in sunglasses

It's a party, girl, what are you hidin' from?

Oh, I get it, it's to look cool, okay

Well, your boyfriend's lost, I saw him at the bar

Let a big breath out, and knock back a shot

Are you worried like I am? Takin' it on?

I don't wanna be here long, 'cause

I don't care that I'm at the chateau with the whole A-list (sorry, God forbid)

Can't lie, but I'm thinkin', like, high school was better than this (yeah, it probably is)

Are we legally bound to stand in this circle lookin' around? Oh

Shit, how'd I even get in? And I'd love to get out

Oh-oh-oh-oh, la-da-da-da

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, la-da-da-da

...

Don't care that I'm at the chateau

Don't care who you are, who you know

Don't care, don't care

I don't care (oh)

Don't care that I'm at the chateau

Don't care who you are, who you know

Don't care, don't care

I don't care (oh)

Don't care that I'm at the chateau with the whole A-list (sorry, God forbid, ah-ah)

Can't lie, but I'm thinkin', like, high school was better than this (yeah, it probably is)

Are we legally bound to stand in this circle lookin' around? Oh (oh)

Shit, how'd I even get in? And I'd love to get out

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

And you're still DJing
