Good morning, baby

Good morning, baby

Heart-pounding morning

Bang-cut bangs, bang-cut bangs

Front bangs cutie style

If it’s straight, it’s first place, yeah

Super amazing!

Today’s lips

Over there? Here? That way? Which?

Which? Chotto? Watch

What time is it now?

Gathering, gathering, after school party time

It’s girl talk at the girls’ party

Super intense!
