For those who shoot hard (for those who shoot hard)
Ah, it's the first date
I can't take her to the spa (tcho, tcho, tcho)
Is that what you're interested in?
Sorry, I'm not into that (tcho, tcho)
Ah, it's the first date
I'll be there in no longtime (it's Joga Bonito, unh unh)
Don't stick to me out of interest
Life ain't Melrose Place (Melrose Place)
Eh, eh, eh, eh, babe, come see real life (come see real life)
I don't know your ex, but
I know he's gonna resent me (what are you saying? That's strong)
Eh, eh, eh, eh, babe, here, we don't know 'kouma' (don't know 'kouma')
We have friends in common, they told me you were tough so
Wish me good luck (me good luck)
Don't worry, I'll pay for everything (unh), yes I'll pay for everything (it's Jojo)
To keep her from being broke, gotta pay for everything (ah, ah, ah, ah)
Ah, it's the first date (first date)
I can't take her to the spa (tcho, tcho, tcho)
Is that what you're interested in?
Sorry, I'm not into that (I'm not into that)
Ah, it's the first date
I'll be there in no longtime (it's Joga Bonito, unh unh)
Don't stick to me out of interest
Life ain't Melrose Place (that's strong)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop (that's strong)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (unh, unh, unh, unh)
We go around the city in a helicopter
From Rio de Janeiro, it's for you my baby, amore mio
They have mouths, mouths like a pelican
But the shooter is always dressed in Dior (ha-ha-ha)
Come see real life
We talk about these simps in the past tense (but it's over)
Gigantic stack, the negro doesn't stop hustling (awa)
I am, I am, I am
My darling makes baby spend without looking at the bill
I am, I am, I am
You can see me?
You don't know who I am
Ah, it's the first date (first date)
I can't take her to the spa (tcho, tcho, tcho)
Is that what you're interested in?
Sorry, I'm not into that (I'm not into that)
Ah, it's the first date
I'll be there in no longtime (it's Joga Bonito, unh unh)
Don't stick to me out of interest
Life ain't Melrose Place (that's strong)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah), ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (hey woah)
Ah no, it doesn't stop (unh, unh, unh, unh)
Hey woah, hey woah
Tcho, tcho (that's strong), tcho, tcho
Hey woah, hey woah
Don't stick to me out of interest, life ain't Melrose Place

J'peux pas l'emmener au spa.
➔ Use of "peux" - the first-person singular present indicative form of the verb "pouvoir" (to be able to, can).
➔ Illustrates the ability or possibility of doing something in the present. "Je peux" (I can) is followed by an infinitive verb.
-
Sorry j'suis pas dans ça
➔ Use of "j'suis" - contraction of "je suis" (I am). Use of "dans ça" - implying involvement or participation in a situation or activity.
➔ Expresses that the speaker is not interested in or involved in something mentioned previously. The contraction "j'suis" is common in informal speech.
-
Me colle pas par intérêt.
➔ Use of the imperative mood: "colle pas" (don't stick/cling). Implies a direct command or request.
➔ Speaker is directly telling someone not to be close to them for ulterior motives (interest/gain).
-
Je sais qu'il va m'en vouloir.
➔ Use of future tense: "va vouloir" (is going to resent/dislike). Expresses a future action or event.
➔ The speaker knows or predicts that someone will resent or dislike them in the future. "En" replaces the object of the verb "vouloir".
-
T'inquiète, j'vais tout payer
➔ Use of the informal contraction "j'vais" for "je vais", another way to express the near future. "Tout" is used as an adverb meaning 'completely'.
➔ The speaker assures someone that they will pay for everything, emphasizing the totality with "tout". "T'inquiète" is an informal way to say "don't worry".
-
Pour éviter qu'elle pénav, obligé de tout payer
➔ Use of subjunctive mood "pénav" after "pour éviter que" (to avoid that). "Obligé de" + infinitive. Impersonal construction meaning 'obliged to'.
➔ Explains the reasoning behind paying for everything: to prevent her from being in a difficult or precarious situation (pénav). The use of the subjunctive is triggered by the expression of avoidance.
-
Ils ont la boca, boca comme un pélican
➔ Use of "comme" (like/as) to make a comparison. Repetition of 'boca' is for emphasis.
➔ This line uses a simile to describe people who talk a lot or gossip, comparing their mouths to a pelican's beak.
