Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Oh, I feel awful.

I've been eating fast food all week.

No surprise there! Eating home-cooked food is way healthier.

Yeah. But cooking takes forever, and I’m always too tired after work.

I used to think the same, but it’s really not that bad.

I make quick meals at home.

You? Cook? That’s shocking.

You barely make your bed!

But I learned some easy recipes, and now I actually enjoy it.

Like what? Instant noodles don’t count.

Nope! I make stir-fried veggies, grilled chicken, even homemade pasta.

Okay, that does sound good,

but I don't even know where to start.

Start small.

Scrambled egg sandwiches. Simple salads.

You'll get the hang of it.

Hmm. Maybe I should give it a shot.

But what if I mess up?

That’s part of the fun! Some of my first meals were disasters.

Oh, so you weren't born a chef?

Shocking.

Ha-ha, very funny. But seriously, your body will thank you.

Less greasy food, more energy!

Alright, alright. I’ll try cooking this weekend.

But if my kitchen catches fire, it’s your fault.

Deal. Just don’t burn the house down.

Good morning, you go to the store to buy things, too?

Yes. I need something for dinner.

You can come to my house for dinner if you want.

Great.

But why do you buy so many canned goods?

I live alone. Recently, I’ve had to work outside so I often come home late.

So I usually buy canned goods for dinner.

They're very convenient.

Canned food often contains additives, preservatives, and other chemicals

and many other chemicals which can be bad for your health.

I think you should try to buy fresh food.

They're both fresh and safe.

Errr…you're right, but I don't have time to prepare meals properly.

It's okay, let's buy and cook together today, shall we?

All right.

Morning, team.

Who wants pancakes?

I’ll whisk the eggs.

I'll mash the bananas.

Good. I’ll heat the pan.

Max is ready too.

He always shows up for pancakes.

Can't resist those,

Batter’s ready.

Honey, pour the first one.

It’s... a little oval.

It looks like a potato.

A delicious potato.

I'll flip the next one.

Nice one, chef.

These are looking pretty good!

We should add chocolate chips next time.

Or maybe some blueberries?

Maybe a little bit of both.

You can’t go wrong with pancakes and chocolate chips.

Breakfast, made with teamwork.

And a lot of love... and a little bit of luck.

Max! We're back! And we bought half the store.

Oh my word… What is this? Did a raccoon trash the place?

Mom… I was just about to clean.

Just about to? Guests are coming!

We’re cooking! Noah’s leaving tomorrow! MOVE.

Yes, ma'am

Throw the trash, wipe the table, vacuum…

and for heaven’s sake, change that shirt!

Fear not, the British are here...to say "oh dear" at the mess.

Great, moral support. With that kind of help, we'll be done by next Tuesday.

You two clean. I’ll do the cooking in the kitchen.

Can I get a double dessert if I finish before 4 PM?

Only if the house doesn’t smell like a locker room.

Come on, mate. It’s our last dinner.

Don’t make me spend it buried under a mountain of junk.

Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.

You handle the vacuuming, I’ll tackle the coffee table. Sounds good?

Alright. One last clean-up before dinner with my favorite people.

Why is everything here so expensive?

Because it’s organic and ethically sourced.

Ugh, my wallet is crying.

Just get what you need.

What are you cooking tonight?

Maybe some pasta.

Do you even have ingredients at home?

Um… No.

The food in my fridge expired and now it's empty.

But I have a dream!

Then let's make that dream come true.

Okay, I need pasta, marinara sauce, and cheese.

And vegetables.

You can't eat just carbs and cheese.

Fine.

I'll get some spinach.

Oh, grab some garlic, too.

It makes everything better.

Good call.

What about protein?

Should I get chicken or shrimp?

Chicken's cheaper, but shrimp is fancier.

What's your budget?

Let's just say I'm sticking with chicken.

Oh, but not having toast and scrambled eggs has made me crave it.

Now, are you going to change the menu tonight?

Maybe...

Fine.

But don't forget what we came here for.

We need lunch.

Almost forgot.

This is so good.

Honestly, I could eat pizza every day and never get tired of it!

Every day? Really?

Yep!

There are so many types—pepperoni,veggie, BBQ chicken, even pineapple pizza!

It never gets boring.

Ugh, not pineapple pizza… That’s just wrong.

You're missing out.

But come on, what’s your favorite food then?

Probably sushi.

It’s fresh, light, and there are so many flavors to try.

Sushi is good, but it’s not as satisfying as pizza.

Pizza is warm, cheesy, and perfect for any mood.

I don’t know… I’d get tired of it after a few days.

Impossible! Pizza is life.

Fine, but next time, we’re going for sushi.

Deal! But only if I can have pizza the day after.

What’s that... leftovers?

Some stir-fry from last night. It was better when it was warm... and hopeful.

Sounds like even the microwave gave up halfway.

It did. It just beeped and sighed at me.

Well, I just tried that new place down the street.

Really? I’ve been meaning to check it out.

Yeah, the new restaurant serves amazing seafood. Like… scary good.

Is it fancy-fancy?

Not too fancy. Enough to feel like a treat but still affordable.

Now that's my kind of place. Do they have grilled shrimp?

Yes. I tried it. Life-changing. I had a brief moment of silence after the first bite.

Great. I'm hungry again.

Thanks for that.

Hey... I mean, if you’re curious, want to check it out together sometime? Maybe this weekend?

Are you asking me out… through seafood?

Is it... working?

You already had me at "scary good."

I’ll book us a table before you come to your senses.

Hey, if the shrimp isn't life-changing, you're buying me an apology ice cream.

Then let's hope it's the start of something better than leftovers

Hola! Welcome to Tacos El Gordo.

What can I get you?

Hi. I'll have three arrabbiata tacos and a Mexican Coke.

Would you like onions and cilantro on the tacos, or do you want them plain?

Yes. Onions and cilantro, please.

Anything else?

We have guacamole and extra salsa.

Some guacamole on the side, please.

Great choice.

Your total is $12.75.

Oh. Do you take cards?

No. Sorry. Cash only.

Oh, no.

I only have $10 in cash.

No problem!

You can take two tacos instead.

Or I can remove the guacamole.

Hmm… I really want the guacamole.

I’ll take two tacos, but keep the guacamole.

Good choice.

That'll be $9.75.

Perfect!

Here's your change.

Your tacos will be ready in just a minute!

Thank you.

Hello, Henry.

Hi. Wait a minute.

Have you finished your food yet?

Not yet. Wait for me.

Where are you going?

We're going to Rio's house to watch a football game.

Okay. Remember to be careful.

I know, mom. We are not children anymore.

What? You're just 15 years old. Listening to parents is good.

Okay, mom, I got it.

What time will you come back?

I don't know. Maybe 11 p.m.

That's too late. Come back earlier.

Excuse me, do you have a bigger frying pan?

Of course.

We have many sizes.

How big do you need?

Well, my current one is too small.

I need something larger.

Maybe around 30cm.

I see.

We have this one here—it’s 32 cm.

Perfect for cooking big meals.

Oh, that looks great!

Is it nonstick?

Yes. It has a high quality nonstick coating.

It's also dishwasher safe.

That's good.

I hate scrubbing pans after cooking.

I understand!

This one is very easy to clean.

It also works on all stove tops, including induction.

Nice. What's it made of?

It’s made of aluminum. It heats up quickly and cooks food evenly.

That sounds perfect.

How much is it?

It's €25.

And today we have a 10% discount if you buy any two kitchen items.

Oh, that's a great deal.

Let me look around for something else.

Take your time.

We also have high quality knives and cutting boards on sale.

Hmm… actually, I do need a new wooden cutting board.

We have some beautiful ones made of French oak.

They're durable and stylish.

I love that.

I’ll take the frying pan and the cutting board.

Great choice.

I'll ring them up for you.

Thank you.

This store has so many useful things.

You're welcome.

Enjoy cooking with your new kitchen tools.

Welcome to McDonald's.

May I take your order?

Hi! Can I get a cheeseburger combo with a large Coke, please?

Sure.

Would you like fries with that?

Yes, please.

And can you make it large?

Of course. Anything else?

Yeah, can I get a McChicken with medium fries and a lemonade?

Got it.

Your total is £12.50.

Please drive to the next window.

Thanks!

I love late-night fast food runs.

The smell of fresh fries is the best.

Same!

Nothing beats a burger after a long day.

Oh, look!

They have the special McFlurry today.

Want to try it?

Hmm… not today.

But next time, for sure!

Here's your order.

Enjoy your meal.

Thank you.

McDonald's fries are always crispy.

I think they taste better in the UK.

Really?

I thought they tasted the same everywhere.

Nope!

Each country has small differences.

In France, they have a Croque McDo!.

That sounds fancy!

Maybe we should try different McDonald's around the world.

Now that's a fun idea.

Wow, Luca!

I love this bag!

But it's €200.

That’s expensive, Sophia!

Maybe you can find a cheaper one?

Let's ask.

Excuse me, do you have a discount on this bag?

Sorry, no discount at the moment.

Oh… Do you ever have sales?

Yes, we have seasonal sales in June and December.

Hmm…

I don't want to wait that long.

Let's check another store.

But this one is perfect.

I know, but this bag is too expensive.

Maybe another shop has a similar bag for less.

That's true.

Do you know any good stores nearby?

Yes! There’s an outlet store two blocks away.

They sell designer bags for lower prices.

That sounds great.

Let's go check it out.

I hope you find what you're looking for.

Thank you.

Let's go before it gets too crowded.

If you could go anywhere on vacation, where would you go, Mark?

Italy!

I want to see Rome and eat real pasta.

That sounds amazing.

Have you always wanted to visit Italy?

Yes. I love Italian food.

And I want to see the Colosseum.

That's on my list too.

But if I had to choose, I’d go to Japan.

Oh, for the sushi?

Yes!

And the culture.

The temples, the cherry blossoms… everything!

That sounds incredible.

Have you started planning, Jenny?

Not yet, but maybe next year.

You should go in spring!

The cherry blossoms are beautiful then.

That's a great idea.

What about you?

When will you go to Italy?

Hopefully next summer.

I want to visit Venice too!

Oh, the city with the canals!

That would be so romantic.

Exactly!

Riding a gondola would be a dream.

You have to take lots of pictures.

Of course.

And I'll bring back some pasta.

Deal.

These wooden shoes are beautiful!

What are these things made of?

They're made of Dutch oak.

Traditional and strong.

That's amazing.

Do people still wear them?

Some farmers do!

But mostly they're souvenirs.

They look really well-made.

Are they handcrafted?

Yes! Each pair is carved by local artisans.

That must take a lot of skill.

It does!

It's an old Dutch tradition.

That's really interesting.

Do they come in different sizes?

Yes. We have sizes for adults and children.

I'd love to try a pair.

Of course.

Here, try these.

They feel a little stiff.

Yes. They take time to get used to.

But they’re so unique!

I think I'll take a pair.

Great choice.

Would you like them gift wrapped?

Yes, please!

My friend will love them.

They make a perfect souvenir from the Netherlands!

I agree.

You look frustrated.

What's wrong?

I don't get English grammar at all.

What part is confusing you?

Articles.

‘A’ and ‘The.’

I never know which one to use.

That's a common problem, but don't worry.

Sometimes it’s ‘a cat,’ sometimes ‘the cat’… why?

‘A’ is for something new.

‘I saw a cat’—any cat.

And ‘the’?

‘The’ means we already know which one.

Like… ‘I bought a book’ and later ‘the book is great’?

Exactly!

First, it's any book.

Then it's specific.

That makes sense.

See? You're improving.

It just takes patience.

But why ‘the sun’ or ‘the ocean’ from the start?

Because there's only one of them.

Like ‘the Eiffel Tower’ too?

Yes. You're getting it now.

Learning a new language takes patience.

I still need practice.

But this helps!

You’re doing great.

Keep going.

I miss you.

I miss you, too.

Long-distance relationships can be really challenging.

I know, but we're making it work.

Some days feel so long without you.

I know, but only one more month until we meet.

Remember our last dinner together?

Yes. You spilled coffee on your shirt.

And you laughed so much!

It was a perfect day.

We'll have more days like that soon.

I hope so.

Stay strong, okay?

I'm trying.

Only a few more weeks.

I love you.

I love you too.

Now get some sleep, okay?

Alright. Goodnight, love.

Goodnight, Xavier.

The next train's in an hour.

Do you mind waiting an extra hour so I can read more of my book?

I want to finish my book.

No problem.

We're late anyway.

I'll grab coffee at Starbucks for both of us.

Thanks.

This book is so interesting.

What's it about?

It's a mystery novel.

The main character is trying to solve a crime.

Sounds exciting!

It is!

I’m at the part where she’s about to find the killer.

No spoilers.

Maybe I'll read it next.

You should.

I'll lend it to you after I finish.

Deal. I'll be back soon with coffee.

Get me a cappuccino, please.

Got it.

Take your time.

I have a whole hour to read.

Enjoy your book.

Hey, Emily! How’s it going?

Pretty good. Just busy with work.

Yeah. What are you working on?

The marketing report for next week's meeting.

Oh, that sounds stressful.

It is.

There's so much data to analyze.

I know the feeling.

Deadlines are crazy.

Tell me about it.

I barely had time for lunch.

Same here.

I just grabbed a quick sandwich.

We need a break.

Let's grab coffee later.

Sounds good!

How about Starbucks at 4?

Perfect.

I need caffeine to survive this day.

Me too.

See you at 4!

See you then.

Do you like hiking, Alice?

Hmm… That’s not really my thing.

Oh? Why not?

I don't know.

I just don't enjoy walking for hours.

Fair enough.

So, what do you like to do?

I prefer yoga.

Yoga is cool too!

Maybe I should try it.

You should!

It's relaxing.

But I'm not very flexible.

That's okay.

Yoga is about progress, not perfection.

I guess that makes sense.

Where do you practice?

At a small studio near my place.

They have beginner classes every weekend.

That sounds perfect for me.

Maybe I'll join you next time.

That would be fun!

You might end up loving it. We'll see.

Jean, the smoke. It’s getting worse.

Crap.

Why won't the door open?

NO... It’s stuck. What do we do?!

Everyone needs to evacuate the building immediately!

If you can hear me, head to the fire exit!

Wait! There's someone out there.

Help!

We're stuck! Help!

I hear you! Stay calm, I’m coming! Step back from the door!

Let’s go! Stay low, follow my lead!

Thank you, we didn’t know what to do!

Move fast and keep your head down!

Quickly! This way! Move!

I see it, the exit!

Almost there.

We live.
