And why two plus two makes four

Traduction:

 

Tu es allée à l'école pour apprendre, chérie
Des choses que tu ne savais pas avant

Comme “I” avant le “E” sauf après le “C”

 

Et pourquoi deux plus deux font quatre
Maintenant, je veux t'apprendre
Tout sur l'amour, chérie

 

Assis toi, prends un siège
Tout ce que tu dois faire, c'est répéter après moi

 

ABC, facile comme 1, 2, 3
Ah, simple comme Do, Ré, Mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3
Bébé, toi et moi chérie
ABC, facile comme 1, 2, 3
Ah, simple comme Do, Ré, Mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3
Bébé, toi et moi chérie

 

Viens, laisse moi t'aimer un petit peu
Viens, viens, viens
Laisse moi te montrer tout sur le sujet

 

Lire et écrire, arithmétique
Toutes les branches de l'arbre de la connaissance

Mais écoute, sans les principes de l'amour
Laisse moi te dire, chérie

 

Ton éducation n'est pas complète

 

Le-le-le maître va te montrer
Comment avoir un “A”

 

Epelle moi, toi et ajoute les deux
Écoute moi bébé, c'est tout ce que tu dois faire

Oh, ABC facile comme 1, 2, 3
Aussi simple que Do, Ré, Mi
ABC, 1, 2, 3
Bébé, toi et moi chérie

 

ABC est facile, c'est comme compter jusqu'à trois
Chanter une simple mélodie
C'est aussi facile que d'aimer
C'est aussi facile que d'aimer
Chanter une simple mélodie
1, 2, 3, toi et moi

 

 

Assis-toi chérie
Je pense que je t'aime

 

Maintenant, lève-toi chérie
Montre moi ce que tu peux faire

 

Secoue toi, secoue toi bébé

 

Vas-y, maintenant!

 

Secoue toi, secoue toi bébé
Secoue toi, secoue toi bébé, oh!
1, 2, 3, bébé
Ooh,
C'est aussi facile que d'aimer
C'est aussi facile que d'aimer
Chanter une simple mélodie
C'est aussi facile que d'aimer

 

Chante le fort, chante le fort, chante le fort

C'est aussi facile que d'aimer
Chanter une simple mélodie
