  1. J'ai pris deux-trois verres, là j'suis défoncée

    I've had a couple of drinks, now I'm high

  2. J'ai les idées sombres, donc je vais l'appeler

    I have dark thoughts, so I'm going to call him

  3. J'suis toujours en détente, on est ensemble depuis mai

    I'm always relaxed, we've been together since May

  4. On fait toujours connaissance, on parle la même langue

    We're still getting to know each other, we speak the same language

  5. Mais quelle complicité, j'aurais jamais imaginé

    But what a connection, I never would have imagined

  6. J'avoue, j'suis sidérée, j'aurais jamais imaginé

    I confess, I'm astounded, I never would have imagined

  7. Il veut me revoir, moi j'veux le revoir

    He wants to see me again, and I want to see him too

  9. Hmm-hmm, j'domine le jeu

    Hmm-hmm, I dominate the game

  10. Et t'assumes, n'est-ce pas? (Tous)

    And you own it, don’t you? (Everyone)

  11. J'étais pas censée devenir possessif, cocktail mortel

    I wasn't supposed to become possessive, deadly cocktail

  12. T'as mon goût dans ta bouche et tes yeux qui m'dévorent

    You have my taste in your mouth and your eyes that devour me

    In your mouth, I'm the leader

  14. Ouh-la-la, moi j'veux que ton "ouh-la-la"

    Ouh-la-la, I want your 'ouh-la-la'
