You take a shot baby I take a stab ... about to go down at the language lab Some are pour favor Some are sil vous plait Talk is cheap, baby, anyway Get ready to go If you're willing and able But you're bound to give your number By my tower of Babel Yes I get rewarded For my gifted gab All the pretty girls at the language lab It's always hurry up and wait You know I can relate If you've got another language Baby, I can translate I can translate I can translate I can be the conduit Between a dozen heads of state Who would otherwise be trying to kill each other. Speaking Cantonese just to get my kicks French is just Romanian that's been remixed Come on pretty baby, let's jump in the next cab Destination: the language lab Don't chalk it up to fate If there's too much on your plate And if you're lost in translation, baby I can translate I can translate I can translate And when my work is done Misunderstanding will abate And you won't have to press '1' for English Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! There's no need to speak When looking into your eyes 'Cos lies in foreign languages are still just lies This is what I get for my gift of the gab All the broken hearts at the language lab You're always running late For your linguistic blind date And if you're looking for some reading, baby (?) I can translate I can translate I can translate I can make your mumbo jumbo and your noise cooperate (?) And your romance is no longer Greek to me Oh!
