Lyrics & Translation
Yeah, took off my hook, feeling like Coke, brrr
Look at my toe, my ex's name tattooed
I need to drink now, even if you say you dislike it, I’m fine with that
Why are you cranky, boy?
Why are you scowling so much?
Do you want a blonde Barbie doll?
That’s not here. I’m not a doll.
Call me crazy, what’s the loss for me, yeah
Go ahead and tear me apart without mercy, you'll lose to me, yeah
Love, that petty stuff, no scars on my body from it
Instead of spraying your rotten perfume,
Yeah, I’m a Tomboy (Umm ah, umm)
Yeah, I’ll be the Tomboy (Umm ah)
This is my attitude
Yeah, I’ll be the Tomboy
I don’t want to play ping pong
I'd rather film a TikTok
Your mom raised you like a prince,
But this is a kingdom, right?
I like dancing, I love my friends,
Sometimes we swear without needing cigarettes,
I like to hang out, drinking whiskey,
I won’t change, what the hell?
Call me crazy, what’s the loss for me, yeah
Go ahead and chew me out without mercy, you’ve lost to me, yeah
Love, that petty stuff, no tears in my eyes, not an ounce
Instead of smiling at your insignificant words,
Yeah, I’m a Tomboy (Umm ah, umm)
Yeah, I’ll be the Tomboy (Umm ah)
This is my attitude
Yeah, I’ll be the Tomboy
Did you get it?
If you get the song right, you'll understand what I mean—‘Tomboy’
La la la la la la la la la
(Three, two, one)
It's neither man nor woman
Man nor woman
It's neither man nor woman
(Just me, I-DLE)
It's neither man nor woman
Man nor woman
It's neither man nor woman
(Just me loving Tomboy)
