[English]

My name is Regina George

And I am a massive deal

Fear me, love me, stand and stare

At me, and these, these are real

I've got money and looks

I am like drunk with power

This whole school humps my leg

Like a Chihuahua

I'm the prettiest poison you've ever seen

That filter you use looks just like me

My name is Regina George (uh-huh)

And I am a massive deal (uh-oh)

I don't care who you are

I don't care how you feel
