The dowry

...
When we met I didn't know how to love
I gave all guys the cold shoulder
Watch out1, you're gonna lose it
I surrendered, you can have me
In the recesses of my head something told me
"Follow him, don't fool yourself", it's my conscience that told me this.
Ok, I'm the target, I buy the whole lot, I say OK
I'm quite stubborn2, you sweetened the deal3
What am I to do, I'm becoming an airhead.
I lost control, I'm a very stubborn girl
What am I to do, I'm becoming a airhead.
 
...
You wanted me, you got me
you had to prove your love to me
You wanted me, you got me
you had to prove your love to me, yeah

We go along well, I found the recipe
Wedding, children, I think that's the idea
Did you say to your ex-lovers that ex-lovers stink?
or else I'll take care myself of your bunch of bitches

  • 1. "belek" is of Arabic origin and can mean "watch out" or "drop dead" depending on the context
  • 2. "de base" means something like "fundamentally", but is rather used as an expletive or a mild emphasis
  • 3. lit. "you sweetened the tenancy agreement". I don't know the expression, but I suppose that's the idea
  • 4. ??? or "you ended up wanting me"
  • 5. I suppose being outside the law is considered cool by youngsters
  • 6. or maybe "you and me in a mess" ???
