SEVENTEEN Right here

Let's start, shall we tune it up?

Match it to one musical standard, play it

SEVENTEEN's scherzo

Even if it's a little unique, we'll beat the drums and pluck the strings

DAT DA RA DAT DA RA DAT DA RA DA

Doesn't matter if it's classic or new thing

Because new combinations are our pride

From the beat to the melody

Mix and match is our specialty

You have to be crazy to be normal

Because we're the ones who change the world

Double the hot cheers

Looking at each other

Sound the trumpets to the world

You & I You & I

Accelerando

Let's rise to the climax

Sonata ringing from a high place

Following the maestro's baton

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

Following the maestro's baton

Never lose the good vibes, never

Good life, we're going to the world

Never lose the good vibes, never

Following the maestro's baton

We changed the rhythm like this

Combine it with Techno, anything is possible

Order it, and we'll make it for you

When we complete this piece together

We finally see us becoming one

Even in complex notes and rhythms

I’ll always be with you

Accelerando

Let's rise to the climax

Sonata ringing from a high place

Following the maestro's baton

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

LALA LALA LALA LALALA

Following the maestro's baton

Never lose the good vibes, never

Good life, we're going to the world

Never lose the good vibes, never

Following the maestro's baton

The rhythm is DAT DA DA RAT DA

Brass is BA BA BA RAM BA

Harmonious us, look at each other

Drive harder, more and more Crescendo

The tempo for the last movement is A Tempo

Following the maestro's baton

Following the maestro's baton

LALA LALA LALA LALALA Never lose the good vibes, never

LALA LALA LALA LALALA Good life, we're going to the world

LALA LALA LALA LALALA Never lose the good vibes, never

Following the maestro's baton
