Tarkan 'Şımarık' (1997) - Holly Valance 'Kiss Kiss' (2002)

Tarkan (Tevetoğlu) was born 17 Oct 1972 in Alzey, West Germany, and raised in Turkey. In 1997 Sezen Aksu, one of the very established musicians and composers in Turkey, wrote Şımarık (English: Spoiled) for him, which should become famous and make it's rounds very fast in countries with high Turkish population, home and abroad. But it was Australian Holly Valance's version Kiss Kiss, which should take it to world fame.

Lyrics:

Takmis koluna elin adamini
Beni orta yerimden catlatiyor
Agzinda sakizi sisirip sisirip
Arsiz arsiz patlatiyor

Belki de bu yüzden vuruldum
Sahibin olamadim ya
Sigar mi erkeklige seni simarik
Degisti mi bu dünya

Cekmis kasina gözüne sürme
Dudaklar kipkirmizi kiritiyor
Bi de karsima gecmis utanmasi yok
Inadima inadima sirityor

Biz boyle mi gorduk babamizdan
Ele gune rezil olduk
Yeni adet gelmis eski koye vah
Dostlar mahvolduk

Seni gidi findikkiran
Yilani deliginden cikaran
Kaderim puskullu belam
Yakalarsam

Ocagina dustum yavru
Kucagina dustum yavru
Sicagina dustum yavru
El aman

Seni gidi findikkiran
Yilani deliginden cikaran
Kaderim puskullu belam
Yakalarsam

English translation:

she goes arms linked with a man
and drives me crazy by doing so
she has chewing gum in her mouth
insolently chewing it, making bubbles burst
Maybe that is why I am so fond of you
because I did not become your owner
Can a man stand that, you spoilt girl?
Did the world change like this?
Eyes painted black
coquettish with glaring red lips
she stands up to me defying me
and grins at me insolently
Did we learn it this way from our fathers?
We have been looking like fools to everyone
New customs have entered the old village
Friends, we are in a fix.
You are a nutcracker
pulling a snake from its hole
my big disgrace
when I get hold of you ... (kiss, kiss)
I'm seeking protection with you, babe
I'm lying in your lap, babe
I'm burning in your fire, babe
Have mercy!

Lyrics:

when you look at me
tell me what you see?
this is what you get
it's the way i am
when i look at you
i wanna be i wanna be
somewhere close to heaven
with neanderthal man
don't go
i know you wanna touch me
here there and everywhere
sparks fly when we are together
you cant deny the facts of life

you dont have to act like a snob
try your moves in the back of a car
dont you know that we can go far
cause tonight youre gonna get my
(mwaa) (mwaa)
kiss kiss

baby whats you starsign
wont you take a step
into the lions den
i can here my conscience calling me
calling me
say im gonna be a bad girl again
why dont you come on over
we cant leave this all undone
got the devil on my shoulder
theres no place for you to run

you dont have to act like a snob
try your moves in the back of a car
dont you know that we can go far
cause tonight im gonna get my
