Lyrics & Translation
Swung on a wire carrying over 500 kilos
Turned the world upside down in less than a second
Gone through a hundred mazes and never get lost
I breathe in and out of the water like seals
I’m fireproof, catch bullets in my mouth
My creativity soars like airplanes
I can build a brain without reading instructions
Speak all the languages of every alphabet
Have more vocabulary than any dictionary
I’ve got eagle eyesight, a dog’s nose
Can walk on hot nails barefoot
I’m immune to death
Don’t need blessings because I’m always lucky
Come with me for a walk in the park
Because I have more stories to tell than García Márquez
For you, everything I do is for you
Because you bring out the best in me
I am all that I am
Because you are everything I want
For you, everything I do is for you
Because you bring out the best in me
I am all that I am
Because you are everything I want
I can jump rope with just one leg
See in the dark without a flashlight
Cook whatever you want, I’m a real chef
I have sex twenty-four seven, all month long
Can blow away the gray clouds so you have a good day
I also know how to communicate telepathically
For you, I cross the border without a visa
And make Mona Lisa smile brightly
For you, I breathe before I die
For you, I go to church and listen to the whole mass without falling asleep
I’m still the king even without a kingdom
My sweat smells like perfume and I never mess up my hair
I know how to fight all martial arts
I also know how to communicate with animals
The more time passes, I look younger
I composed this song without listening like Beethoven
For you, everything I do is for you
Because you bring out the best in me
I am all that I am
Because you are everything I want
For you, everything I do is for you
Because you bring out the best in me
I am all that I am
Because you are everything I want
