“Somebody’s getting fired / Beyoncé did it so we can too / and I can’t wait to speak with you / it’s the third time this has happened to us”
The translation for the excerpt can be read in two ways. The most literal would be: “Someone’s going to get burned / Beyoncé did, so might we too / I can’t wait to talk to you / This is the third time this has happened to us.” But “fired” in English can also be read as “fired”, so she would sing: “someone’s going to get fired”.
