Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I never tried to be a hero

You took us from the stars to zero

We had a love devout without a shred of doubt

We never worried 'bout other people

You broke the spell and wanted something else

Well, go fuck yourself with other people

Other people

No more song, no more dance

No dance floor

We left it all to chance

No encore

We had a love devout without a shred of doubt

We never worried 'bout other people

You broke the spell and wanted something else

Well, go fuck yourself with other people

Oh, baby it's just your body

Go, let in on everybody

They won't be there when you're sorry

Other people

Oh, baby it's just your body

Will it know that you love somebody

Who won't be there when you're sorry?

Other people

(Other people)

Thank you baby, thank you babe, darling

Don't explain, don't explain

Thank you baby, thank you babe, darling

Don't explain, don't explain

We had a love devout without a shred of doubt

We never worried 'bout other people

You broke the spell and wanted something else

Well, now go fuck yourself with other people

Oh, baby it's just your body

Go, let in on everybody

They won't be there when you're sorry

Other people

Oh, baby it's just your body

Will it know that you love somebody

Who won't be there when you're sorry?

Other people

Other people

Other people
