Jealousy
Lee Fields & Martin Solveig Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stand the people after me
Don't want anymore jealousy
They pretend to be my friend
They say this for ever
Al they set to give their hand
Any brand new comer

Aha! They wanna put me down
Aha! They let me hit the ground

Someone said that I like gamble
Mister, I don't wanna rumble
Controversy in my head
They don't seem to understand
I can't feel my underarm
Don't have time for paddy man

Aha! Somebody set me free
Aha! I'm tired of your sympathy

Aha! Jealousy!

Don't tell me I'm weeping out for you
Seem to me that your around or two
I don't wanna argue look
You think I'm out my head
I guess I should thank you look
For the moment, I feel bad

Aha! You wanna put me down
Aha! Jealous when I found

You tell me that that I had my time
Left the golden ages behind
I am ready to take it easy
Even if you're talking vain
I don't wanna hear you baby
Bang bang here I come again

Aha! Somebody set me free
Aha! I'm tired of your sympathy

Aha! Jealousy!

Let's make a brand new start
Open up your mind
Get rid of some of this this jealousy
It's fire in me
For all this jealousy!

Somebody help me!
Somebody! Somebody! Somebody!
Stop this jealousy!





Aha! Jealousy!

Lyrics :

(musique...ok... on sort du champ s'il-vous-plaît, merci !)
I can't stand those people after me
don't want anymore jealously
they pretend to be my friend
they say this forever
are they sent to give their hand
any brand newcomer

(Aaaaah!) they want to put me down
(Aaaaah!) they let me hit the ground

someone said that I'd like to gamble
this time i don't want to ramble
contreversy in my head
they don't seem to understand
I can feel my eyes are red
don't have time for daddy (?), man

(Aaaaah!) somebody set me free
(Aaaaah!) I'm tired of your sympathy
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)

Don't tell me I'm weeping out for you
seem to me that you're rambler (?) too
I don't want to earn you love
you think I'm out of my head
i guess i should thank you love
for the moment I feel bad

(Aaaaah!) you want to put me down
(Aaaaah!) here is what I found

You tell me that I had my time
that the golden age is behind
I am ready to take it easy
even if you talk in vain
I don't want to hear you baby
bang bang here I come again

(Aaaaah!) somebody set me free
(Aaaaah!) I'm tired of your sympathy
(Aaaaah! Jealously !) nothing but jealousy !
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)
(Aaaaah! Jealously !)

Let's make a brand new start !
Open up your miiiind !
Get rid of some of this jealousy (Aaaaah! jealousy!)
You're bothering me ! with all this jealousy ! (jealousy!)
