Oppan Gangnam Style
Gangnam Style
A warm-hearted woman during the day
A classy woman who knows how to enjoy a cup of coffee
A woman whose heart races at night
Such a woman with a twist
I’m a man
A man as warm as you during the day
A man who takes a shot before the coffee cools
A man whose heart bursts at night
Such a man
Beautiful, lovely
Yeah, you (hey), yeah, it’s you (hey)
Beautiful, lovely
Yeah, you (hey), yeah, it’s you (hey)
Shall we go wherever we can from now on?

Looks demure, but knows how to have fun
When the time is right, she lets her hair down
Though covered up, she’s sexier than most exposures
Such a sensual woman
I’m a man
Looks respectable, but knows how to have fun
A man who goes completely wild when the time comes
A man whose thoughts are more muscular than his body
Such a man
Beautiful, lovely
Yeah, you (hey), yeah, it’s you (hey)
