I’ve always been immensely amused at how horrendous the lyrics are to Avril Lavigne’s Girlfriend. Well, Chad played the Mandarin version tonight (I’ve probably heard it before, just didn’t realize it) and I found out that there are a ton of different versions of it in different languages. That’s so horrific it’s awesome.
Now that your brain is blown away in English, bask in the glory of Girlfriend in:
“Hey hey you you
我不喜欢你女朋友 [wǒ bù xǐ huān nǐ nǚ péng yǒu]
No way no way
你需要一个新的 [nǐ xū yào yī gè xīn de]
…
Because…
She’s like so whatever
You can do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that’s what everyone’s talking about” -Avril Lavigne
