[English]

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

If I see one, I can see ten, I break through by understanding

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

If things go as planned, I'm just a rookie who will become a butterfly

What I want is to win

I call it "sugar" (my sugar, sugar)

If it goes as planned, there's no way I can miss it

My sugar, sugar (my sugar)

Someone says I'm mean, mean, mean, mean, mean

I don't care, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh

Instead of beauty blooming over my defeat

I chose the stronger name "villain"

So that's just me, me, me, me, me

I can see it, see, see, see, see

LE SSERAFIM, lead me to victory

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

If I see one, I can see ten, I break through by understanding

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

If things go as planned, I'm just a rookie who will become a butterfly

I'm a smarter, baby

Work hard in secret, everything fits perfectly

I planned that, don't be mad

If it goes as planned, I can't be

That loser, loser (that loser)

Someone says I'm mean, mean, mean, mean, mean

I don't care, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh

Instead of beauty blooming over my defeat

I chose the stronger name "villain"

So I just wanna be me, me, me, me

I can see it, see, see, see, see

LE SSERAFIM, lead me to victory

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

If I see one, I can see ten, I break through by understanding

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

If things go as planned, I'm just a rookie who will become a butterfly

I'm a smarter, baby

My clock goes tick-tock, the shortcut I needed

I found it and I grabbed it, huh

Someone says, "That's all luck," I say, "No, it's not luck"

My sweat is not lying, lying

Don't slow down, this life is super fast

Best scheme, in my head

Living my best life, I'm all set

Dinner of the winner, that is what I want to get, alright

Smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

If I see one, I can see ten, I break through by understanding

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

If things go as planned, I'm just a rookie who will become a butterfly

I'm smarter, baby

...

[Korean]

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

하날 보면 열까지, 간파해서 돌파하지

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

계획대로 돼가지, 난 나비가 될 애송이

원하는 건 승리란 놈

I call it "sugar" (my sugar, sugar)

Plan대로라면 놓칠 리가 없지

내 sugar, sugar (my sugar)

누군 말해, 내가 mean, mean, mean, mean, mean

신경 안 써, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿

내 패배 위에 필 아름다움 대신

더 강한 이름 "villain"을 택했지

So 그게 바로 me, me, me, me, me

내겐 보여, see, see, see, see, see

LE SSERAFIM, 날 이끌어 to victory

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

하날 보면 열까지, 간파해서 돌파하지

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

계획대로 돼가지, 난 나비가 될 애송이

I'm a smarter, baby

Work hard in secret, 아귀가 착착 맞게

I planned that, don't be mad

Plan대로라면 난 될 수가 없지

그 loser, loser (that loser)

누군 말해, 내가 mean, mean, mean, mean, mean

신경 안 써, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿, 쉿

내 패배 위에 필 아름다움 대신

더 강한 이름 "villain"을 택했지

So I just wanna be me, me, me, me

내겐 보여, see, see, see, see, see

LE SSERAFIM, 날 이끌어 to victory

I'm a smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

하날 보면 열까지, 간파해서 돌파하지

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

계획대로 돼가지, 난 나비가 될 애송이

I'm a smarter, baby

내 시계는 tick-tock, 필요했던 shortcut

찾아내고 난 잡았지, huh

누구는 말해, "That's all luck", 난 말해, "No, it's not luck"

내 땀은 not lying, lying

Don't slow down, 이 삶은 superfast

Best scheme, 내 머릿속에

갓생, 난 준비를 끝냈어

Dinner of the winner, that is what I want to get, alright

Smarter, baby, smarter, smarter, baby, smarter

하날 보면 열까지, 간파해서 돌파하지

Wanna be a winner, wanna be a winner

계획대로 돼가지, 난 나비가 될 애송이

I'm smarter, baby
