You Met Your Match by Stevie Wonder
Lyrics & Translation
English
Hey, you were good at playing the fox, girl
When I was good, you threw me a bone
But I ain't playing hard for nobody
Girl, just wait 'til I get you home
I'll show you the way to love somebody
Like you've never ever been shown
Because my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you
Hey baby, you played around with Jimmy and Freddie
You tried to make me look like a fool
But I took care of Cindy and Susie
Just to show you I can be twice as cruel, baby
If you want to learn how to love me
I'll teach you in my own private school
Because my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you
(You met your match) When you played with my affection
(You met your match) When you tried to make me walk the line
(You met your match) When you decided you would hurt me
That's when your grape fell from the vine, vine, vine, vine (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Your mama told me that I'd better be mellow
She said you're just a baby, maybe too green
I told her Jimmy, Freddie, Teddy and Victor
They know better, mama shake off that dream
Hey, I told her that you really were cooking
My love is boiling while I turn into steam
Hey, because my love light's burning
My whole life's yearning for you
Hey, baby, baby
(You met your match) When you told me that you loved me
(You met your match) When you told me that you wouldn't let go
(You met your match) You met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match
(You met your match) You met your match, baby, hey, get down with it
(You met your match) You met your match, you met your match, you met your match, you met your match
(You met your match) You met your match, baby, hey, yeah, yeah, baby
(You met your match)

You Met Your Match (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Oye, eras buena jugando a la zorra, chica
Cuando yo era bueno, me dabas un hueso
Pero no me estoy esforzando por nadie
Chica, solo espera a que te lleve a casa
Te mostraré la forma de amar a alguien
Como nunca antes te han enseñado
Porque la luz de mi amor está ardiendo
Toda mi vida anhela por ti
Oye nena, anduviste jugando con Jimmy y Freddie
Intentaste hacerme parecer un tonto
Pero yo me encargué de Cindy y Susie
Solo para mostrarte que puedo ser el doble de cruel, nena
Si quieres aprender a amarme
Te enseñaré en mi propia escuela privada
Porque la luz de mi amor está ardiendo
Toda mi vida anhela por ti
(Encontraste tu horma) Cuando jugaste con mi afecto
(Encontraste tu horma) Cuando intentaste hacerme seguir la línea
(Encontraste tu horma) Cuando decidiste que me harías daño
Ahí fue cuando tu uva cayó de la vid, vid, vid, vid (Sí, sí, sí, sí)
Tu mamá me dijo que mejor me calmara
Dijo que eres solo una bebé, quizás demasiado inexperta
Le dije que Jimmy, Freddie, Teddy y Victor
Ellos saben mejor, mamá, sacúdete ese sueño
Oye, le dije que realmente estabas cocinando
Mi amor está hirviendo mientras me convierto en vapor
Oye, porque la luz de mi amor está ardiendo
Toda mi vida anhela por ti
Oye, nena, nena
(Encontraste tu horma) Cuando me dijiste que me amabas
(Encontraste tu horma) Cuando me dijiste que no me soltarías
(Encontraste tu horma) Encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma
(Encontraste tu horma) Encontraste tu horma, nena, oye, a disfrutarlo
(Encontraste tu horma) Encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma, encontraste tu horma
(Encontraste tu horma) Encontraste tu horma, nena, oye, sí, sí, nena
(Encontraste tu horma)
