    [Intro: All, Karina, Giselle]

    넌 정말 licorice (Uh; Woo)

    Licorice (Yeah; Woo)

    Licorice (Woo)

    계속 맴돌아 like licorice


    [Verse 1: Winter, Giselle, Karina]

    Really not like that

    Really, really not like that (Ooh-woo)

    이건 뭐랄까

    정말 낯선 느낌, yeah

    널 보고 있어 또 silly (Silly)

    생각이 나 no kidding (Kidding)

    대체, what?

    괜히 그냥 짜증나 (Yeah, yeah)


    [Pre-Chorus: Ningning, Karina, Winter]

    전혀 다른 type 전에 없던 stuff

    예상도 못 한 사고처럼 crush (Like, like, like)

    뒤를 돌아선 그 순간부터

    홀린 것처럼 다시 돌아서 (다시 돌아서)


    [Chorus: Giselle, All, Ningning, Karina]

    It tastes so sweet but sour (Yeah)

    Oh, sugar and spice

    처음이야 이런 (Yeah)

    내 감정의 폭

    넌 정말 licorice (Uh; Woo)

    Licorice (Woo)

    Licorice (Woo)

    Ah-ah-ah-ah


    [Refrain: Winter, All, Karina, Ningning]

    I wanna scream and shout (Woo)

    훅 끌리는 맘

    위험해도 (Uh) 좋아 (Yeah)

    널 못 놓겠어

    넌 정말 licorice (Licorice; Woo)

    Licorice (Licorice; Woo)

    Licorice (Woo)

    자꾸 손이 가 like licorice (Uh, yeah)


    [Verse 2: Ningning, Karina, Giselle, Winter]

    It's the bomb like that (Like that)

    It's the, it's the bomb like that (Woo, woo)

    한 번 터지면 (Uh)

    Sticky, sticky, oh, my God (Sticky)

    방심한 틈 난 hooked (Hooked)

    덫에 걸려들어, all shook (Shook)

    내 머릿속엔, no (No)

    But say "Let's go, let's go, go"


    [Pre-Chorus: Winter, Giselle & Ningning, Karina]

    소름 돋는 thrill 뭔가 색달라

    다른 건 재미없어, 시시해 (Like, like, like)

    마비된 듯해 모든 감각도

    어떤 자극도 오지 않는 걸


    [Chorus: Ningning, All, Winter]

    It tastes so sweet but sour (Nice)

    Oh, sugar and spice

    Licorice (Woo)

    Licorice (Woo)

    Ah-ah-ah-ah


    [Bridge: Karina, Winter, Giselle, Ningning]

    나도 이해가 안 되지

    피할 수 없어, 이건 gravity

    Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

    아찔한 dynamite

    알지만 못 참아

    IIIII. English

    [Intro: All, Karina, Giselle]

    You're like licorice (ah, woo)

    Licorice (yeah, woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    You keep lingering around like licorice


    [Verse 1: Winter, Giselle, Karina]

    Really, not like that

    Really, really not like that (woo, oh)

    This is such a strange feeling, how should I describe it?

    I see you and I feel silly again (silly)

    I can't help but think about you, no kidding (kidding)

    Seriously, what?

    I'm just getting annoyed for no reason (yeah, yeah)


    [Pre-Chorus: Ningning, Karina, Winter]

    A completely different type, something I've never experienced before

    I'm crushing on you like an unexpected accident (like, like, like)

    The moment I spin away from you

    I'm drawn back to you like I'm under a spell (come back, come back)


    [Chorus: Giselle, All, Ningning, Karina]

    It tastes so sweet but sour (Yeah)

    Oh, sugar and spice

    This is the first time I've felt like this (Yeah)

    The intensity of my emotions

    You're like licorice (uh; woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    Ah-ah-ah-ah


    [Refrain: Winter, All, Karina, Ningning]

    I wanna scream and shout (Woo)

    I'm drawn to you like a moth to a flame

    It's dangerous (Uh), but I like it (Yeah)

    I can't let you go

    You're like licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    My hand keeps reaching out for you like licorice (Uh, yeah)


    [Verse 2: Ningning, Karina, Giselle, Winter]

    It's the bomb like that (Like that)

    It's the, it's the bomb like that (Woo, woo)

    Once it explodes (Uh)

    Sticky, sticky, oh, my God (Sticky)

    I let my guard down and got hooked (Hooked)

    I'm all shook up, trapped in your snare (Shook)

    My mind is saying no (No)

    But I'm saying let's go, let's go, go


    [Pre-Chorus: Winter, Giselle & Ningning, Karina]

    A spine-tingling thrill, something different

    Everything else is boring and insignificant (like, like, like)

    I feel numb, all my senses

    No stimulation can reach me


    [Chorus: Ningning, All, Winter]

    It tastes so sweet but sour (Nice)

    Oh, sugar and spice

    This is the first time (Time) I've felt like this (This)

    The intensity of my emotions (Uh)

    You're like licorice (uh; woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    Ah-ah-ah-ah


    [Bridge: Karina, Winter, Giselle, Ningning]

    This is how I am, this is how I feel

    I don't even understand myself

    I can't escape it

    This is gravity

    Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

    Thrilling dynamite

    I know I shouldn't, but I can't resist

    Something, somewhere

    Is broken

    It's spreading, growing stronger


    [Refrain: Winter, All, Giselle]

    I wanna scream and shout

    I don't know why

    I like it, it's subtle

    I'm stuck to you like glue

    You're like licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    You keep popping up in my thoughts like licorice (Licorice)


    [Refrain: Ningning, All, Karina]

    Scream and shout

    I'm drawn to you like a moth to a flame

    It's dangerous, but I like it

    I can't let you go

    You're like licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (licorice; woo)

    Licorice (woo)

    My hand keeps reaching out for you like licorice
