ESPRESSO (but French) - Sabrina Carpenter

tik tok wanted this.
If you want this on Spotify, check out my Tik Tok and one of my pinned videos, I need your help getting Sabrina's team's attention so we can maybe get this up there!
I made a little version of this for the short format platforms and I got quite a few suggestions for a full version so here ya go (also Sabrina Carpenter commented on the tik tok saying she loved it which made my day a little bit). This is my French translation/rendition of Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso! I have seen some comments talking about how the lyrics are way different and how I kind of rewrote the song and changed some of the meaning. To those people: I did indeed change quite a bit in the lyrics and that is because translating is hard. You lose all the meaning and half of the emotion in translation. None of the words rhyme anymore, and on top of that, none of the metaphors or allusions work anymore either. So I changed a lot but I think it's really good this way and it ain't that deep I'm just having fun! Hope you are too!

This version makes me want to dance on the beach, but in the shadiest party under a palm tree, by myself, with earbuds in. SO lovely

Onscreen Lyrics

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso
(That's that me espresso)

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, ouais
(That's that me espresso)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, mm-mm
(That's that me espresso)

Moi, ça ne me dit rien, tout ce désespoir
(I can't relate to desperation)
Je me sens très bien, sur mon île tous les soirs
(My "give a f*cks" are on vacation)
Là, j'en ai trouvé une, elle arrête pas de m'appeler
(And I got this one girl, and she won't stop calling)
Je lui dis que c'est dur,
(When they act this way)
Mais ton cœur je vais le casser
(I know I got 'em)

Dommage ton ex n'est pas au niveau
(Too bad your ex don't do it for ya)
T'inquiète, c'est toi ma vague, on y go
(Walked in and dream came trued it for ya)
J'allais te surfer jusqu'à mon îlot, mm-mm
(Soft skin and I perfumed it for ya)

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso
(That's that me espresso)

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, ouais
(That's that me espresso)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, mm-mm
(That's that me espresso)

Moi, je travaille tard, car je suis un chanteur
(I'm working late, 'cause I'm a singer)
J'aime bien la voir, en apesanteur
(Oh, she looks so cute, wrapped 'round my finger)
Quand je l'ai la veille, c'était mon soleil
(My twisted humor, make him laugh so often)
Ma p'tite abeille, viens me prendre mon pollen
(My honey bee, come, and get this pollen)

Dommage ton ex n'est pas au niveau
(Too bad your ex don't do it for ya)
T'inquiète, c'est toi ma vague, on y go
(Walked in and dream came trued it for ya)
J'allais te sufer jusqu'à mon îlot, mm-mm
(Soft skin and I perfumed it for ya)

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso
(That's that me espresso)

Elle pense à moi, dans la nuit, oh
(Thinkin' 'bout me, every night, oh)
Ouais mais en soi, elle en fait trop
(Isn't that sweet? I guess so)
Réveil dans le noir, es-tu dispo
(Say you can't sleep, baby, I know)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, ouais
(That's that me espresso)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, mm-mm
(That's that me espresso)
Ah, c'est mon p'tit espresso, mm-mm
(That's that me espresso)

I love hearing songs that I know in different languages. If I made any typos, feel free to let me know! The top lyrics are in French, and the bottom ones are the corresponding in English (the ones onscreen, not a translation). I just decided to type it, so it's easier to learn. Hope this helps, and all the best to you!

wow tu te rends compte que c’est dur de retranscrire les paroles en français de façon poétique
