[English]

This is a hot spot

You seek it out like breathing, your dining table

You’ve become a regular, falling in love

An irresistible taste

We’re in the kitchen

Cookin’ it up, what you’re craving

Saucin’ it my way, to my taste

And now the world’s gone mad

You don’t need to think too much

Just chew, tear, savor, and enjoy it

Yeah yeah yeah

Deeply soaking in your mouth

Guilty pleasure never killed nobody, give it a try

Spaghetti stuck between your teeth

Wanna take it out? Bon appétit

Just give up, anyway

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

LE SSERAFIM stuck in your head

Bad b**ch in between your teeth

Just give up, anyway

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

This is the sweet spot

Heat up the scene, it’s that big shot

Chef’s choice, a kick just for you

You’re lost in the sauce, no turning back

I’ll get more intoxicated all night, tilting naturally

I’ll take an empty glass, but filter out the criticism now

What’s good is good, what’s good—why, what?

Feel it now, don’t hold back, gulp it down

Snap it up like a Getty

My kimchi pose is still priceless

Whatever I’m cookin’, like a star

Any course you want, I’ll wrap it up for you, shaky

I’m the protagonist of your drama, your type

And a hidden gem, high-calorie Hershey chocolate

A tarot that captivates all your senses, savor me

Now, from amateur to pro

Yeah, this is a hot spot

Don’t give a f**k what you say

Give it a chew, it tastes good

Don’t need no three stars

Yeah, you only hate it in words

Where’s your diet now?

Secretly savoring it

You better stop lying

Don’t care what you talk about

You came here on your own again today

Yeah yeah yeah

Deeply soaking in your mouth

Chew it over, is it real love or not?

Spaghetti stuck between your teeth

Wanna take it out? Bon appétit

Just give up, anyway

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

LE SSERAFIM stuck in your head

Bad b**ch in between your teeth

Just give up, anyway

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it up

Eat it up, eat it, eat it

Eat it up, eat it, eat it up

[Korean]

This is a hot spot

숨 쉬듯 찾는 네 밥상

단골이 된 넌 fall in love

참을 수 없는 맛

우린 in the kitchen

Cookin' it up what you're craving

나의 입맛대로 saucin'

And now the world's gone mad

You don't need to think too much

씹고 뜯고 맛보고 즐기다 가면 돼

Yeah yeah yeah

깊이 스며들어 in your mouth

Guilty pleasure never killed nobody 드셔봐

이빨 사이 낀 SPAGHETTI

빼고 싶니 bon appétit

그냥 포기해 어차피

Eat it up eat it eat it up

머릿속 낀 SSERAFIM

Bad b**ch in between your teeth

그냥 포기해 어차피

Eat it up eat it eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it eat it up

This is the sweet spot

Heat up the scene, it's that big shot

Chef's choice, 널 위한 킥이야

You lost in the sauce, no turnin' back

더 취할 거야 밤새, 기울여 절로

난 빈 잔은 받고, 이젠 핀잔은 걸러

좋은 게 좋은 거지 좋다는 게, 왜 뭐?

느껴봐 어서, 꺾지 말고, 벌컥

Snap it up like a Getty

내 김치 포즈는 여전히 priceless

Whatever I'm cookin', 스타같이

어떤 코스든 원하면 말아주는 쉐키

내가 네 취향 드라마 주인공이고

또 숨.듣.명이고, 고칼로리 Hershey 초코

모든 줏대를 홀리는 타로, 넌 음미해 나로

자 이제 까에서 빠로

Yeah this is a hot spot

Don't give a f**k 네가 뭐라던

씹어보셔 맛이 좋아

필요 없어 three star

Yeah 말로만 hate it

어디 갔어 너의 diet

남몰래 쓱 하는 음미

You better stop lying

Don't care what you talk about

오늘도 제 발로 달려온 건 너잖아

Yeah yeah yeah

깊이 스며들어 in your mouth

진짜 사랑인지 아닌지 곱씹어 봐

이빨 사이 낀 SPAGHETTI

빼고 싶니 bon appétit

그냥 포기해 어차피

Eat it up eat it eat it up

머릿속 낀 SSERAFIM

Bad b**ch in between your teeth

그냥 포기해 어차피

Eat it up eat it eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it up

Eat it up eat it eat it

Eat it up eat it eat it up
