Lyrics and translation

Original

Did it help to take the thorn out?
Telling the whole world you'd been hurt.
Your hands won't clean, you should wash your mouth out, oh.
And did you have to dish the dirt?
Ooh, I must be a narcissist.
God knows that I can't resist.
To make a song and dance about it.
Maybe I'm a masochist.
Don't know why I must persist.
To make a song and dance about it.
Did you have to take the knife out?
The sword is sharp, hey, you'd not twist.
Would the wounds have healed, had you not wrote the words down?
Must you deliver the blow? You couldn't flex the fist.
Ooh, I must be a narcissist.
God knows that I can't resist.
To make a song and dance about it.
Maybe I'm a masochist. Don't know why I must persist.
To make a song and dance about it.
To make a song. I must be a narcissist.
To make a song. God knows that I can't resist.
I make a song and dance about it. To make a song. I must be a narcissist.
To make a song. God knows that I can't resist.
I make a song and dance about it.
I sing a song and dance about it.
Maybe I'm a masochist.
The sun goes down, the curtain lifts, and I'll sing a song.
