SADE IN THE 90s – English Lyrics

• By: Qveen Herby

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Ah, ah yeah, ah

Ah yeah, ah

Ahh, yeah, yeah

You can find me at my best when I'm naked

When I'm lyin' by the pool gettin' faded

See, I used to give a fuck, now I'm jaded

I'm allergic to the bullshit (allergic to the bullshit)

Alright, orange soda, Deepak Chopra

Versace robe and my Gucci loafer

Sex on the sofa, that's my yoga

'Til my last breath, no regrets 'cause I

Do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spending decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blinding

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade in the '90s

Do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spendin' decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blinding

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade in the '90s

You can clearly see my vibe is tremendous

But you won't see through the tints in my Tesla

I be blockin' out the world, it's a mess, yeah

I'm allergic to the bullshit (allergic to the bullshit)

Alright, orange soda, Deepak Chopra

Versace robe and my Gucci loafer

Sex on the sofa, that's my yoga

'Til my last breath, no regrets 'cause I

Do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spending decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blindin'

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade in the '90s

Do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spending decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blindin'

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade in the '90s

No trouble ever stayed long enough

Thank God every day for my come-up

Somebody tryna slight me, it's all love, it's all love

When I do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spending decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blinding

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade

Do it like it's roulette, roll it, burn it, lose it

Hit that black and red, keep spending decks, I keep it moving

Put that shit behind me, keep my diamonds blinding

Gotta keep it suave like I'm Sade in the '90s

Do it like it's- (do it like it's-, do it like it's-)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah-e-yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
