You Probably Couldn't See for the Lights but You were Staring Straight at me

One look sends it coursing through the veins
Oh, how the feeling races
Back up to their brains
To form expressions on their stupid faces
They don't want to say hello
Like I want to say hello
Well, the heartbeat's at its peak
When you're coming up to speak

And oh, I'm so tense, never tenser
Could all go a bit Frank Spencer
And I'm talking gibberish
Tip of the tongue but I can't deliver it properly
Oh, it's all gettin' on top of me
And if it weren't this dark
You'd see how red my face has gone, yeah

Everybody's tryna crack the jokes and that
To make you smile
Those that claim that they're not showing off
Are drowning in denial
But they're not half as bad as me
Say anything and I'll agree
'Cause when it comes to acting up
I'm sure I could write the book

And now that you're more than a part in the play
It's slightly easier to think what to say
You had us all standing on our heads
Doin' our best tricks, yeah

Never again
Well, never again, no, will there be another one
Quite as desirable as you
One look sends it coursing through the veins
Oh, how the feeling races
Back up to their brains
To form expressions on their stupid faces

LIRIK TERJEMAHAN

Satu pandangan mengirimkannya mengalir melalui pembuluh darah
One look sends it coursing through the veins

Oh, betapa perasaannya berpacu
Oh, how the feeling races

Kembali ke otak mereka
Back up to their brains

Untuk membentuk ekspresi di wajah bodoh mereka
To form expressions on their stupid faces

Mereka tidak ingin menyapa
They don't want to say hello

Seperti aku ingin menyapa
Like I want to say hello

Ya, detak jantungnya sedang berada pada puncaknya
Well, the heartbeat's at its peak

Saat Anda datang untuk berbicara
When you're coming up to speak

Dan oh, saya sangat tegang, tidak pernah lebih tegang
And oh, I'm so tense, never tenser

Semua bisa berjalan sedikit Frank Spencer
Could all go a bit Frank Spencer

Dan aku berbicara omong kosong
And I'm talking gibberish

Ujung lidah tapi aku tidak bisa menyampaikannya dengan baik
Tip of the tongue but I can't deliver it properly

Oh, semuanya menimpaku
Oh, it's all gettin' on top of me

Dan jika tidak segelap ini
And if it weren't this dark

Anda akan melihat betapa merahnya wajah saya, ya
You'd see how red my face has gone, yeah

Semua orang mencoba melontarkan lelucon dan itu
Everybody's tryna crack the jokes and that

Untuk membuatmu tersenyum
To make you smile

Mereka yang mengaku tidak pamer
Those that claim that they're not showing off

Tenggelam dalam penyangkalan
Are drowning in denial

Tapi mereka tidak seburuk saya
But they're not half as bad as me

Katakan apa saja dan saya akan setuju
Say anything and I'll agree

Karena ketika harus bertingkah
'Cause when it comes to acting up

Saya yakin saya bisa menulis buku itu
I'm sure I could write the book

Dan kini Anda lebih dari sekadar berperan dalam drama itu
And now that you're more than a part in the play

Sedikit lebih mudah memikirkan apa yang harus dikatakan
It's slightly easier to think what to say

Anda membuat kami semua berdiri tegak
You had us all standing on our heads

Lakukan trik terbaik kami, ya
Doin' our best tricks, yeah

Tidak akan lagi
Never again

Ya, tidak akan pernah lagi, tidak, akankah ada yang lain
Well, never again, no, will there be another one

Cukup diinginkan seperti Anda
Quite as desirable as you

Satu pandangan mengirimkannya mengalir melalui pembuluh darah
One look sends it coursing through the veins

Oh, betapa perasaannya berpacu
Oh, how the feeling races

Kembali ke otak mereka
Back up to their brains

Untuk membentuk ekspresi di wajah bodoh mereka
To form expressions on their stupid faces
