I. Introduction
"Cherry Bomb (English Version)" is the first track on Up Next Session: NCT 127, a special EP created for Apple Music from the permanent NCT sub-unit, NCT 127. It was released on October 22, 2018.
The release occurred during promotions of the group's first album, Regular-Irregular, in the United States. The group was the first Kpop group selected to appear in Apple's "What's Up Next: Spotlight" series. Most of the songs on the EP are English.
Although this song is predominantly in English, like many NCT 127 English songs, it does have a few words in Korean. This is an English version of an existing song, the title track from 2017's Cherry Bomb EP.
NCT 127 members Mark and Taeyong co-wrote the lyrics.
II. Streaming
Because it is exclusive, the album is only available on Apple Music, which is paid. However, it is also available for free on the NCT 127 YouTube channel.

Roll on in tonight, do it right, do it how you want
Long night, daylight, stay here til the, til the sun
I'm about to throw my hands up in the air
Get that everywhere, give it up
Flip it back like we don't care
[Verse 2: Taeyong]
If you wanna roll inside with our clique
Then lay your pretty hand in my hand
Give it, give it a kiss, uh huh huh

Nothin' but love

It tastes like a cherry bomb
Lose yourself and just let it go
Follow me who needs control

[Bridge: Jaehyun, Doyoung, Taeil, Mark]
Where will it end? I don't know
But I can tell you where it's 'bout to go (yeah yeah)
Just getting started, this ain't half of it
They done messed around, let us get in, it's over
Going up and the sky's the limit
We about to set it all on fire
With this one single flame I'm changing this game
I'm the biggest hit, I'm the biggest hit, yeah
[Verse 4: Mark]
Uh, hard rock, stomp
Head shot pop, no talk
All the guys singing this song wasting time fittin' into your box
Aye, ok, ok
Spilling it out like Chardonnay
Right hand to God, we gonna get it, ain't no other way
Pulling it off, I pray so my people keep, keep watching me now
Who cares about a hater, hater talk talk
I hear what you're sayin' but so what?
Won't say it to my face, so I'm off like a gunshot
You'll love it, put me on, now we gone, cherry bomb
(And now, the witness)
[Refrain: Winwin, Jaehyun]
I'm the biggest hit
I'm the biggest hit on this stage
I'm the biggest hit

[Pre-Chorus: Doyoung, Johnny, Mark, Taeil]

Clap your hands yo (in this beat)
If you're happy and you know it
Clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it
Clap your hands
