She looked good, she looked good
Her eyes said 'you have to unbutton me'
Oh, yes
I made the lioness purr
You know, I told myself that one day I'll have to give it back
I'll have to give it back
I sent a little midwife
To act as an after-sales service
In case I want to retype it
Sleeping agent, closed file
She read my little wise men
Responded long after
What is the way to neglect myself?
It confused me a bit
No, she doesn't have my time that girl
She doesn't have my time
Not even a reminder, no spee on me
She doesn't have my time
I've known much better tastes, what does she think?
She doesn't have my time
Well, let her look beautiful, anyway, I don't lie
She doesn't have my time
Since she doesn't have my time
Since she doesn't have my time
I saw that she has a nice ass, that bitch
I had zapped it but I am re-subscribing, oh yes
I take it upon myself, I bunker, oh, yes
So that she drools when I turn things around
I have to turn things around
I sent back some little wise men
Without playing hungry dogs
Her passion, I have to wake her up
My name, I'm going to make him sing it
She read my little wise men
Responded long after
What is the way to neglect myself?
It confused me a bit
No, she doesn't have my time that girl
She doesn't have my time
Not even a reminder, no spee on me
She doesn't have my time
I've known much better tastes, what does she think?
She doesn't have my time
Well, let her look beautiful, anyway, I don't lie
She doesn't have my time
Since she doesn't have my time
Since she doesn't have my time
I think she likes to buy my head
I think she likes to buy my head
Cut my dreams with a machete
Cut my dreams with a machete
This little girl makes me think
Its phases only excite me
My ego, she rocked it
I am angry, I have to re-stamp it
Seum is word from Arabic origin, used to express a state of 'rage', 'hate' or 'disappointment'
This little girl makes me think
Its phases only excite me
My ego, she rocked it
I am angry, I have to re-stamp it
No, she doesn't have my time that girl
She doesn't have my time
Not even a reminder, no spee on me
She doesn't have my time
I've known much better tastes, what does she think?
She doesn't have my time
Well, let her look beautiful, anyway, I don't lie
She doesn't have my time
Since she doesn't have my time

déboussolédisoriented / bewildered

Déboussolé literally means 'disoriented' or 'bewildered', as if one has lost their compass. It's a more evocative word than simply 'confused'.

In the song, the narrator uses it to describe his feeling when the woman he's pursuing takes a long time to respond to his messages. He sings, "Ça m'a un peu déboussolé" (That left me a bit disoriented), highlighting his surprise and frustration at her unexpected lack of immediate interest, which throws him off his game.

"Elle n'a pas mon temps" is Singuila's frustrated take on a woman who keeps stringing him along. The title itself, "she doesn't have my time," is the song's whole argument: he's decided she isn't worth the wait anymore.

He opens by admitting the attraction was real, she looked good, she made her intentions clear, and he fell for it. But the messages he sends go unanswered for days, and when she finally replies it's on her own terms. Verse by verse he lists the ways she plays it cool while he does all the chasing.

The chorus keeps circling back to the same line: she doesn't have his time. It's part accusation, part pep talk, him convincing himself to stop giving her the attention she isn't returning.

By the final verses the tone shifts from hurt to defiance. He's still stung (his ego took a hit) but he'd rather walk away than keep being someone's afterthought.
