[English]

Excuse me

Yes?

Can I take your order?

Avocado toast

Avocado toast

Avocado toast

Three avocado toasts, right?

Let's call this one 'Strawberry', and this one 'Blueberry'

I can see them growing from the ground

You look like you're spoiled

Avocado

I should hide it underground

It's like a dream, baby

It'll be alright

I've made up my mind now

I'm in Wonderland

I won't look back

There's no reason to look back now

“Believe in me

Seduce me

Look at me like you're one of mine”

“Believe in me

Try it

Just take a bite”

이건 ‘딸기’, 이건 ‘블루베리’로 부르자

땅에서 자라나는 게 보여

넌 상한 것 같네

Avocado

땅속에 숨겨야겠어

마치 꿈만 같아 baby

괜찮을 거야

이제 결심했어

난 원더랜드에 온 거야

뒤돌아보지 않아

이제 와서 뒤돌아볼 이유는 없어

“날 믿어봐

현혹해봐

네 사람인 것처럼 바라봐”

“날 믿어봐

시도해봐

한번만 베어 물어봐”
