II. Lyrics
자꾸 첨이란 말을 너무 많이해
jakku chamiran mareul neomu manihae
You’re saying “it’s my first time” too much
이런 감정은 첨이라며 말을 하는게 이상해
ireon gamjeongeun cheomiramyeo mareul haneunge isanghae
Saying “it’s my first time feeling like this” is weird
난 다른 여자들과 다르다는게 좀 수상해
nan dareun yeojadeulgwa dareudaneunge jom susanghae
Telling me I’m different from other girls is a bit fishy
내가 아는 애만 해도 몇 명인데
naega aneun aeman haedo myeot myeonginde
I know tons of girls you’ve been with
그 여자들은 아무 의미도 없다는게 이상해
geu yeojadeureun amu uimido eopdaneunge isanghae
“Those girls don’t mean anything to me”, it’s weird
그동안 사귀었던 여잔 뭐였는데
geudongan sagwieotdeon yeojan mwoyeonneunde
Then what about the girls you’ve been dating?
말이 도무지 안되잖아
mari domuji andwejana
Your words don’t make any sense
남잔 다 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
namjan da mideoseoneun andwendago hamyeonseo
You’re telling me that men can’t be trusted
너만 다르다고 말하는 건 뭐야
neoman dareudago malhaneun geon mwoya
While saying that you’re different, what are you on about?
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony maldo an dwae
Irony, it makes no sense
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony maldo an dwae
Irony, it makes no sense
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony maldo an dwae
Irony, it makes no sense
말도 안 되는 말 정말
maldo an dweneun mal jeongmal
It really doesn’t make any sense
여잔 다 가지고 놀기만 했었다면서
yeojan da gajigo nolgiman haesseotdamyeonseo
You’re saying you were just playing with those girls
나만 다르게 생각한단 건 뭐야
naman dareuge saenggakhandan geon mwoya
While telling me you think I’m different, what are you saying?
Irony 말도 안 돼

말도 안 되는 말 정말
maldo an dweneun mal jeongmal
It really doesn’t make any sense
다른 남자 애들 안 좋은 얘기를
dareun namja aedeul an joeun yaegireul
Saying bad things about other guys
자꾸 내게 자세히 말해 주는게 너무 이상해
jakku naege jasehi malhae juneunge neomu isanghae
It’s weird to keep on telling me details
니 친구들 안 좋은 얘길 왜 내게 계속 말해
ni chingudeul an joeun yaegil wae naege gyesok malhae
Why do you keep telling me bad stories about your friends?
너만 안 그렇단 말이 좀 이상해
neoman an geureodan mari jom isanghae
“I’m the only one different from them”, it’s weird
니 친구들 모두 너와 함께 다니잖아 말이 돼
ni chingudeul modu neowa hamkke danijana mari dwae
But you’re always around them, how does that make sense?
친구들 모두 다 그러고 있는데
chingudeul modu da geureogo inneunde
All your friends are like that
너만 안그러고 있는게
neoman angeureogo inneunge
but you’re the only one who isn’t?
남잔 다 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
namjan da mideoseoneun andwendago hamyeonseo
You’re telling me that men can’t be trusted
너만 다르다고 말하는 건 뭐야
neoman dareudago malhaneun geon mwoya

maldo an dweneun mal jeongmal
It really doesn’t make any sense
너무 진실한 것처럼 말이지
neomu jinsilhan geotcheoreom mariji
You sound too sure of everything
너무 그러니까 이상한거지
neomu geureonikka isanghangeoji
That’s why it seems so weird
말을 곧이곧대로 듣지 못하고
mareul godigottaero deutji mothago
I can’t believe a word you say
자꾸 의심하게 돼 믿지 못하고
jakku uisimhage dwae mitji mothago
I never stop doubting you, so I can’t trust you
잠시 생각해보면 니가 뭣하러
jamsi saenggakhaebomyeon niga mwothareo
“Think about it for a sec”, what are you doing?
그렇게까지 나에게 환심을 사려
geureokekkaji naege hwansimeul saryeo
You went that far to be with me so
할까 싶어서 믿어보려고도 해봤어
hamkke sipeoseo mideoboryeogodo haebwasseo
I wanted to give you a chance, so I tried to believe you
하지만 수상해 아무래도 안되겠어
hajiman susanghae amuraedo andwegesseo
But it’s suspicious, no matter what, I can’t do it
남잔 다 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
