Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Hey, let's tell a story from the edge of summer.

Radiantly shining

The sun is a spotlight

Attention, attention

Attention, please

Lacto ice cream we ate after school

Even splitting it in half isn't enough

A world that adults can never see

Let's try a blue shadow makeup

We reached the blue‑shimmering sea

Unable to return

Even turned off the smartphone

If I'm with you, anywhere

If I have this lipstick

I can become anything

Become pretty, mwah

Invincible cuteness

Attention, please

With mysterious magic

Transforming into a technical make

Girls are the best

Attention, please

If we're together

We can go anywhere

Radiantly shining

The sun is a spotlight

Attention, please

Transforming into a technical make

Youth is a lie that says it's brief, forever

Attention, please

Time, freeze! Chronostasis

Just as the fizz fades away

A Sunday that ends in an instant

But this memory

Won't melt forever, candy

Hair messed up with sweat

The faded bus is empty

Where should we go?

We can go anywhere, yeah!

No need for school uniform

We can become anything

If it's us, mwah

Invincible cuteness

Attention, please

With mysterious magic

Transforming into a technical make

Girls are like that

Attention, please

It's the best, this very moment

Can't stop yet

Radiantly shining

The sun is a spotlight

Attention, please

Transforming into a technical make

Youth is a lie that says it's brief, forever

Attention, please

Time, freeze! Chronostasis

Even if the golden‑wood book opens

Sunflowers that never wilt

Let's let them bloom in our hearts

Invincible cuteness

Attention, please

With mysterious magic

Transforming into a technical make

Girls are the best

Attention, please

If we're together

We can go anywhere

Radiantly shining

The sun is a spotlight

Attention, please

Transforming into a technical make

Youth is a lie that says it's brief, forever

Attention, please

Yeah, look at that, all right

[Korean]

"있지, 여름 끝자락의 어느 이야기 하나를 해보자"

찬란하게 비추는

태양이 spotlight

Attention, attention

"Attention, please"

방과후에 먹었던 락토아이스크림

반으로 나눠도 모자라

어른들은 절대 보이지 않는 세계

자 가보자 블루 섀도로 make up

파랗게 빛나는 바다에 다다랐고

돌아갈 수 없는 채로

스마트폰 전원도 끄고

너와 함께라면 어디로든

이 립스틱만 있으면

뭐든 될 수 있어

예뻐져라 "Mwah"

무적의 귀여움

Attention, please

신비한 마법으로

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

여자아이는 최고야

Attention, please

우리 함께라면

어디라도 갈 수 있어

찬란하게 비추는

태양이 spotlight

Attention, please

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

청춘은 잠깐이란 거짓말, 영원히

Attention, please

시간아 멈춰라 크로노스타시스

탄산 거품이 꺼지는 정도로

한순간에 끝나는 sunday

하지만 이 추억

평생 녹지 않아 candy

땀으로 머리카락이 엉망진창

빛바랜 버스는 텅텅

어디로 갈까?

어디든지 갈 수 있어 자!

교복은 필요 없어

무엇이든 될 수 있어

우리라면 "Mwah"

무적의 귀여움

Attention, please

신비한 마법으로

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

여자아이는 그래

Attention, please

최고야 지금 이 순간

아직 멈출 수 없어

찬란하게 비추는

태양이 spotlight

Attention, please

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

청춘은 잠깐이란 거짓말, 영원히

Attention, please

시간아 멈춰라 크로노스타시스

금목서가 펴도

시들지 않는 해바라기

마음속에 꽃피우자

무적의 귀여움

Attention, please

신비한 마법으로

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

여자아이는 최고야

Attention, please

우리 함께라면

어디라도 갈 수 있어

찬란하게 비추는

태양이 spotlight

Attention, please

변신하는 거야 테크니컬 메이크

청춘은 잠깐이란 거짓말, 영원히

Attention, please

그래 그거 봐 all right
