"She's in love with me and I feel fine" translated into French and then back into English on Babel Fish turned into "It is in the love with me and I smell myself very well." Probably not the sentiment that the Fab Four were aiming for. Fun fact: When I was working on an old French project, we had to translate songs, so I chose "I Feel Fine" by the Beatles...

The one you picked out was by far the trickiest, but he's saying he wants a tattoo to prove his manliness, right? With a little mental gymnastics, you can still read these pretty consistently.
