Lyrics: Bárbara Tinoco/Feodor Bivol

Music: Bárbara Tinoco/Feodor Bivol

I should have cheated on you

With the guy you were jealous of

He wanted, I wanted, don't ask

How would I know that?

And my sixth sense

Who told me to ignore it right away?

Look, I was so dear to think that with me

It wouldn't have been the same

Experimental period

Do you accept returns?

Let her stay with you

If regret were lethal, it would be dangerous

I would fall now to the side, it's messed up

They say it was a lesson, have you learned?

Who told me to kiss the enemy on the mouth?

My friends hated you and I understand

My biggest casting mistake, 100%

You only had one good thing at the moment

It's easy to confuse desire with feeling

When I saw you with her

Okay, I didn't see you with her

I saw it in a story, thought it was weird

I looked her up, I stalked her

Call her whatever you want

Now you're her problem and I could teach her

But that would disturb her

I have a degree

Okay, I have a year zero

Experimental period

Do you accept returns?

Let her stay with you

If regret were lethal, it would be dangerous

I would fall now to the side, it's messed up

They say it was a lesson, have you learned?

Who told me to kiss the enemy on the mouth?

My friends hated you and I understand

My biggest casting mistake, 100%

You only had one good thing at the moment

It's easy to confuse desire with feeling

I don't feel like being nice, diplomatic, and practical

Probably no one will ever hear this

I don't feel like being discreet, writing to the poet, and being concrete

Probably in many years I'll laugh at this

Probably in many years I'll laugh at this

Probably in many years I'll laugh at this

I would fall now to the side, it's messed up

They say it was a lesson, have you learned?

Who told me to kiss the enemy on the mouth?

My friends hated you and I understand

My biggest casting mistake, 100%

You only had one good thing at the moment

It's easy to confuse desire with feeling

Experimental period

Do you accept returns?

Let her stay with you

Experimental period

Do you accept returns?

Let her stay with you

作曲 : Bárbara Tinoco/Feodor Bivol

Devia ter-te traído

Com o rapaz de quem tu tinhas ciúmes

Ele queria, eu queria, não perguntes

Como é que eu sei isso

E o meu sexto sentido

Quem mandou ignorar logo de início?

Olha eu tão querida a achar que comigo

Não ia ser parecido

Período experimental

Aceitam devolução?

Ela que fique contigo

Se arrependimento matasse era um perigo

Caía agora aqui pro lado, é fodido

Eles dizem que foi lição, 'tá aprendido

Quem mandou beijar na boca o inimigo?

Os meus amigos odiavam-te e eu entendo

O meu maior erro de casting 100%

Só tinhas uma coisa boa e no momento

É fácil confundir tesão com sentimento

Quando eu te vi com ela

Ok, não te vi com ela

Vi num story, achei estranho

Pesquisei-a, stalkeeia-a

Chama-lhe o que tu quiseres

Agora és um problema dela e eu podia ensiná-la

Mas isso ia perturbá-la

Tenho uma licenciatura

Ok, tenho um ano zero

Período experimental

Aceitam devolução?

Ela que fique contigo

Se arrependimento matasse era um perigo

Caía agora aqui pro lado, é fodido

Eles dizem que foi lição, 'tá aprendido

Quem mandou beijar na boca o inimigo?

Os meus amigos odiavam-te e eu entendo

O meu maior erro de casting 100%

Só tinhas uma coisa boa e no momento

É fácil confundir tesão com sentimento

Não me apetece ser simpática, diplomática, e sendo prática

Provavelmente nunca ninguém ouvir isto

Não me apetece ser discreta, escrever à poeta e sendo concreta

Provavelmente daqui a muitos anos eu vou rir-me disto

Provavelmente daqui a muitos anos eu vou rir-me disto

Provavelmente daqui a muitos anos eu vou rir-me disto

Caía agora aqui pro lado, é fodido

Eles dizem que foi lição, 'tá aprendido

Quem mandou beijar na boca o inimigo?

Os meus amigos odiavam-te e eu entendo

O meu maior erro de casting 100%

Só tinhas uma coisa boa e no momento

É fácil confundir tesão com sentimento

Período experimental

Aceitam devolução?

Ela que fique contigo

Período experimental

Aceitam devolução?

Ela que fique contigo
