Lyrics Translation

I am an arms dealer
Fitting you with weapons in the form of words
And don't really care which side wins
Long as the room keeps singing
That's just the business I'm in

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress

I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate yeah
I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate yeah

I wrote the gospel on giving up (you look pretty sinking)
But the real bombshells have already sunk (prima donnas of the gutter)
At night we're painting your trash gold, while you sleep
Crashing not like hips or cars
No, more like p-p-parties

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Bandwagon's full, please catch another

I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate yeah
I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate yeah, whoa oh oh oh whoa oh

All the boys who the dance floor didn't love
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
Sing, until your lungs give out

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (now you)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (wear out the groove)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (sing out loud)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (oh, oh)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race

I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate yeah
I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Oh so intricate

I am an arms dealer
Sou um traficante de armas
Fitting you with weapons in the form of words
Equipando você com armas na forma de palavras
And don't really care which side wins
E realmente não me importo com qual lado vence
Long as the room keeps singing
Desde que o lugar continue cantando
That's just the business I'm in
Esse é simplesmente o negócio em que estou
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress
Eu não sou um ombro para se chorar, mas divago
I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Sou um líder e as mentiras que narro são, oh, muito complexas
Oh so intricate yeah
Oh, muito complexas sim
I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate
Sou um líder e as mentiras que narro são, oh, muito complexas
Oh so intricate yeah
Oh, muito complexas sim
I wrote the gospel on giving up (you look pretty sinking)
Escrevi o evangelho da desistência (você parece uma náufraga)
But the real bombshells have already sunk (prima donnas of the gutter)
Mas as gostosas de verdade já afundaram (diva da sarjeta)
At night we're painting your trash gold, while you sleep
À noite estamos pintando seu lixo de ouro, enquanto você dorme
Crashing not like hips or cars
Batendo não como quadris ou carros
No, more like p-p-parties
Não, mais como f-f-festas
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
Bandwagon's full, please catch another

All the boys who the dance floor didn't love
Todos os garotos que não são amados pela pista de dança
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
E todas as garotas cujos lábios não podiam se mover rápido o suficiente
Sing, until your lungs give out
Cantem, até que seus pulmões cedam
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (now you)
Isto não é uma cena, é uma maldita corrida armamentista (agora você)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (wear out the groove)

Oh, muito complexas
I am an arms dealer
Soy traficante de armas
Fitting you with weapons in the form of words
Te equipan con armas en forma de palabras
And don't really care which side wins
Y no me importa qué bando gane
Long as the room keeps singing
Mientras la habitación siga cantando

Soy un protagonista y las mentiras que tejo son tan intrincadas
Oh so intricate yeah

I'm a leading man and the lies I weave are oh so intricate

But the real bombshells have already sunk (prima donnas of the gutter)
Pero las bombas reales ya se han hundido (Primadonnas de la cuneta)
At night we're painting your trash gold, while you sleep
Por la noche estamos pintando tu basura de oro, mientras duermes

All the boys who the dance floor didn't love
Todos los chicos a los que la pista de baile no les encantó
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
Y todas las chicas cuyos labios no podían moverse lo suficientemente rápido
Sing, until your lungs give out
Canta, hasta que tus pulmones se rindan
