HeyHey.
On peut l’faire, elle a pas la boca, elle traine seule, elle est un peu locaWe can do it; she’s discreet and doesn’t talk too much. She hangs out alone and she’s a little wild.
En picture, video, elle parait toute calme, elle s’transformera sous tes drapsIn photos and videos, she seems so calm, but she’ll transform under your sheets.
Sans cardio, personne t’aidera (Sans cardio, personne t’aidera)Without stamina, nobody’s going to help you (Without stamina, nobody’s going to help you).
Te presse pas, babe, arrête de stresser (Te presse pas, babe, arrête de stresser)Don’t rush, babe, stop stressing out (Don’t rush, babe, stop stressing out).
