[English]

Oh-oh, I got breaking news And it's not about you, oh-oh

Oh-oh, I've been breaking hearts too And I learned it all from you, oh-oh

I got my thigh-highs on, feel like Wonder Woman That's when you want all in, but I'm not your woman

When my lipstick pops and I feel like Monroe That's when you want me most, oh-oh

I'm all out of salt, I'm not gonna cry Won't give you what you want

'Cause I look way too good tonight I'm all out of salt, tears are running dry

Won't give you what you want 'Cause I look way too good tonight

I'm all out of salt

I'm all out of salt

Oh-oh, when I'm 'bout to celebrate Push my head into the cake, no more

Oh-oh, you're the snake pulling my arm Like my snakeskin Saint Laurent, oh-oh

I got my thigh-highs on, feel like Wonder Woman That's when you want all in, but I'm not your woman

When my lipstick pops and I feel like Monroe That's when you want me most, oh-oh

I'm all out of salt, I'm not gonna cry Won't give you what you want

'Cause I look way too good tonight I'm all out of salt, tears are running dry

Won't give you what you want 'Cause I look way too good tonight

I'm all out of salt

I'm all out of salt

Not gonna c-c-cry, Not gonna c-c-cry Not gonna c-c-cry

I'm all out of salt, I'm not gonna cry Won't give you what you want

'Cause I look way too good tonight I'm all out of salt, tears are running dry

Won't give you what you want 'Cause I look way too good tonight

I'm all out of salt

I'm all out of salt
