I Don’t Speak French

[Verse 1]
I met you in a hotel, the lobby bar was too full
Can we keep the small talk headed right back to my room?
Then I heard you laughing, your accent was enchanting
Met you on a Tuesday, Wednesday, I was parlez-vous

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been waiting
I don't have the patience for language

[Chorus]
I don't speak French, I don't speak French
When I got my clothes on
I don't speak French, I only speak French for you
Baby don't dance, baby don't dance
When he got his clothes on
I don't speak French, I only speak French for you
For you

[Verse 2]
Shame about this weather, let me wear your leather
Won't give it back until you tell me to
Do you have a girlfriend? 'Cause I got a boyfriend
If you don't tell, I won't tell on you, no, no

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been waiting
I don't have the patience for language

[Chorus]
I don't speak French, I don't speak French
When I got my clothes on
I don't speak French, I only speak French for you
Baby don't dance, baby don't dance
When he got his clothes on
I don't speak French, I only speak French for you

[Bridge]
I met him at the Grand Amour
It was autumn time and I was more than lost
I said that I'd have what he's having
On the whiskey sours and the cherry on top
I don't speak French, but I'd like to
I don't want love, but I want you
Je ne parle fucking pas français
Je suis anglaise, uh, I fucking love—

[Chorus]
I don't speak French, I don't speak French
When I got my clothes on
I don't speak French, I only speak French for you (I've been waiting)
I only speak French for you
