Eva Queen
Yeah, yeah
If you think I'm blind
Your little games are like braille
Even the trashiest chicks
You'd love to f*ck them all
I gave you time, I gave you chances
Now, get lost
I'll even pay for a full tank of gas
You wanted to play, don't think we're even
I'm calling my girls and putting a team together
You're gonna pay for what you did
We're planning the perfect crime
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
I trusted you, I still regret it
I want revenge, for you to be full of remorse
You made me suffer and you're gonna pay for it
They won't see me on 'Faites entrer l'accusé'
Yeah, you can apologize
You lie every time
You played with my feelings too much
I tried talking to you nicely
You didn't get it, I can't do it any other way
Everyone thought you were faithful
Habibi, why were you cruel?
Everyone thought you were faithful
Habibi, why were you cruel?
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
Habibi
I need an alibi
Habibi
I need an alibi
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
Yes, you hurt me bad, bad, bad, bad
You won't see my tears, tears, tears, tears
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
I'm gonna kill my man, I need an alibi
He takes me for an idiot, he calls me 'habibi'
Pass me a gun, some gloves, rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom
Habibi
I need an alibi
Habibi
Rom-po-po-pom-pom-pom

alibialibi

Alibi is a French word that has been adopted into English, meaning a claim or piece of evidence that one was elsewhere when an act, typically a criminal one, is alleged to have taken place.

In Eva's song, the word is central to the narrative of a woman scorned who is contemplating revenge. She sings, "J'vais tuer mon mec, il m'faut un alibi" (I'm going to kill my boyfriend, I need an alibi), immediately setting a dramatic and intriguing tone that will make listeners curious about the story unfolding in the lyrics.

Ever been so mad at someone you could just... well, you know? In "Alibi," French artist Eva Queen takes that feeling to the next level in this ultimate revenge anthem. She's discovered her boyfriend, who calls her 'habibi' (an Arabic term of endearment meaning 'my love'), is a cheater who takes her for a fool. But instead of crying, she's getting even. The song is a fun, over-the-top fantasy about getting back at a dishonest partner.

Eva isn't shedding any tears. She's gathering her friends, forming a team, and planning the 'perfect crime.' The lyrics playfully talk about needing a gun, gloves, and most importantly, an alibi. Of course, she's not actually planning a murder! The song uses this extreme idea to express the deep hurt and anger of betrayal. It's a powerful and catchy track about a woman who refuses to be a victim, choosing instead to take back her power with a little help from her friends.
