[English]

Flex so hard, think I am elastic

Swipe so fast like I'm made of plastic

Twist you around like Mr. Fantastic

I am the classic

Dress so tight, gotta itty bum-bum

Catch that flight, don't know where they came from

Stretch so good, gonna leave a light on

(Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da)

Oh, baby, this ain't a performance, it's a show

I can be so unforgettable

You'll be calling me Ms. Incredible

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

Stretch me, stretch me out, flex me, flex me now

Baby, watch mе drop it down, I can bend it, make it bounce

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

I'ma bounce like an acrobat

You can watch me hit the ground (ground)

And I snap right back, that's a metaphor for life (that's life)

And I'm up on top, I don't wanna spend no change

'Cause I spend it on my rocks (my rocks)

Oh, baby, this ain't a performance, it's a show

I can be so unforgettable

You be calling me Ms. Incredible (and if you didn't already know)

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

Stretch me, stretch me out, flex me, flex me now

Baby, watch me drop it down, I can bend it, make it bounce

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

Baby, you won't believe your eye-eyes (mm-mm)

You never had it so divine (oh, mm-mm)

Elastigirl around your mind (I'm just saying)

Oh, my-my-my-my-my

You wanna ride, you wanna ride-ide-ide

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-Lalisa

Stretch me, stretch me out, flex me, flex me now

Baby, watch me drop it down, I can bend it, make it bounce

I'm a, I'm a Elastigirl, try it on me, I'm flexible

Wrap my body right 'round your world, la-la-la-la-la-la

Wrap my body right 'round your world

I'ma, I'ma Elastigirl

Wrap my body right 'round your world

I'ma, I'ma Elastigirl
