The Shape I'm Takin'

Lyrics Translation

You wanna beat it, but you're never gonna leave this town
In the jungle with a fever comes immediate crown
I'm alone with all my friends, fireworks in a pussy den
Shakin' up that new West End, don't get too close, my style bends
I'ma do my thing this time, Hudson River serpentine
Everything we overheard, pizza's free on thirty-third and third, third, third

(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for

The beat is tricky, but you're never gonna move it around
You're dressin' up when you really should be dressin' down
Gettin' on my one last nerve, ring my bell on Dead Man's Curve
Pick it up, Jamaica, Queens, that super walk is so obscene
Gonna do your thing this time, East Side River, box of wine
Throw it up, it's time to serve, pizza's free on thirty-third and third, third, third

(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for

You wanna beat it, but you're never gonna leave this town
You're dressin' up, you really should be dressin' down
In the jungle, fever comes immediate crown

(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for

You wanna beat it, but you're never gonna leave this town
Você quer vencê-lo, mas nunca vai sair desta cidade
In the jungle with a fever comes immediate crown
Na selva com febre vem a coroa imediata
I'm alone with all my friends, fireworks in a pussy den
Estou sozinho com todos os meus amigos, fogos de artifício em uma toca de gatas
Shakin' up that new West End, don't get too close, my style bends
Agitando aquele novo West End, não chegue muito perto, meu estilo se curva
I'ma do my thing this time, Hudson River serpentine
Vou fazer a minha coisa desta vez, serpentina do Rio Hudson
Everything we overheard, pizza's free on thirty-third and third, third, third
Tudo o que ouvimos, a pizza é grátis na trigésima terceira e terceira, terceira, terceira
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(Você não me ama, baby?) A forma que estou tomando
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
No bairro latino, o funk problemático está no chão, oh, meus filhos
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(Você não me ama, baby?) A forma que estou tomando
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for
Selva na discoteca, selva é o que eles vieram aqui para
The beat is tricky, but you're never gonna move it around
O ritmo é complicado, mas você nunca vai movê-lo
You're dressin' up when you really should be dressin' down
Você está se vestindo quando realmente deveria estar se desvestindo
Gettin' on my one last nerve, ring my bell on Dead Man's Curve
Pegando no meu último nervo, toque minha campainha na Curva do Homem Morto
Pick it up, Jamaica, Queens, that super walk is so obscene
Pegue, Jamaica, Queens, essa super caminhada é tão obscena
Gonna do your thing this time, East Side River, box of wine
Vai fazer a sua coisa desta vez, Rio do Lado Leste, caixa de vinho
Throw it up, it's time to serve, pizza's free on thirty-third and third, third, third
Jogue para cima, é hora de servir, a pizza é grátis na trigésima terceira e terceira, terceira, terceira
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(Você não me ama, baby?) A forma que estou tomando
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
No bairro latino, o funk problemático está no chão, oh, meus filhos
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(Você não me ama, baby?) A forma que estou tomando
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for
Selva na discoteca, selva é o que eles vieram aqui para
You wanna beat it, but you're never gonna leave this town
Você quer vencê-lo, mas nunca vai sair desta cidade
You're dressin' up, you really should be dressin' down
Você está se vestindo, realmente deveria estar se desvestindo
In the jungle, fever comes immediate crown
Na selva, a febre vem coroa imediata
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(Você não me ama, baby?) A forma que estou tomando
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children

Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for
Selva na discoteca, selva é o que eles vieram aqui para
You wanna beat it, but you're never gonna leave this town
Quieres vencerlo, pero nunca vas a dejar este pueblo
In the jungle with a fever comes immediate crown
En la jungla con fiebre viene la corona inmediata
I'm alone with all my friends, fireworks in a pussy den
Estoy solo con todos mis amigos, fuegos artificiales en una guarida de gatos
Shakin' up that new West End, don't get too close, my style bends
Agitando ese nuevo West End, no te acerques demasiado, mi estilo se dobla
I'ma do my thing this time, Hudson River serpentine
Voy a hacer mi cosa esta vez, serpentina del río Hudson
Everything we overheard, pizza's free on thirty-third and third, third, third
Todo lo que escuchamos, la pizza es gratis en la treinta y tres y tercera, tercera, tercera
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(¿No me amas, bebé?) La forma que estoy tomando
At the Latin quarter, trouble funk is on the floor, oh, my children
En el barrio latino, el funk problemático está en el suelo, oh, mis hijos
(Don't you love me, baby?) The shape I'm takin'
(¿No me amas, bebé?) La forma que estoy tomando
Jungle at the disco, jungle's what they came here for
Jungla en la discoteca, la jungla es por lo que vinieron aquí
The beat is tricky, but you're never gonna move it around
El ritmo es complicado, pero nunca vas a moverlo
You're dressin' up when you really should be dressin' down
Te estás vistiendo cuando realmente deberías estar vistiéndote menos
Gettin' on my one last nerve, ring my bell on Dead Man's Curve
Poniendo mi último nervio, toca mi timbre en la curva del hombre muerto
Pick it up, Jamaica, Queens, that super walk is so obscene
Recógelo, Jamaica, Queens, ese super paseo es tan obsceno
Gonna do your thing this time, East Side River, box of wine
Vas a hacer tu cosa esta vez, East Side River, caja de vino
