[English]

hey, oh

Oh, whoa-oh, yeah

It's not easy, I know, it's busy

I wonder why it has to be this way

I have so many selfish wishes (right)

I want to rest, it's noisy, everything's annoying

I want to go home? (Even when I’m already there)

I really want to go home

When that happens, just play this song

Take it out and eat it like chocolate

Even if you're tired, eat breakfast and lunch (oh)

Then later, I’ll praise you

I miss you (yeah), I like you a lot

I want to hug you even more (yeah)

Let’s do love, something like love

Maybe I really do love you

When you're hungry, just play this song

Take it out and eat it like an apple in the morning

Even if you're tired, eat breakfast and lunch

Then tonight, you'll sleep well

...

Yeah

It’s tough, but you're beautiful

Yeah (yeah)

Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (yeah)

Ah-ah-ah, oh (please recognize me)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (ah-ah), ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah, oh (don’t ignore me)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (yeah), ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah, oh (please love me)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (me), ah-ah-ah (ooh-ooh)

Ah-ah-ah, oh (don’t miss this)

...

[Korean]

(안녕) hey, oh

Oh, whoa-oh, yeah

쉽지 않죠, 바쁘죠

왜 이렇게 까지 해야 하나 싶죠?

바라는 게 더럽게 많죠 (그렇죠)

쉬고 싶죠, 시끄럽죠 다 성가시죠?

집에 가고 싶죠? (집에 있는데도)

집에 가고 싶을 거야

그럴 땐, 이 노래를

초콜릿처럼 꺼내 먹어요

피곤해도, 아침 점심 밥 좀 챙겨 먹어요 (오)

그러면 이따 내가 칭찬해줄게요

보고 싶어 (yeah), 많이 좋아해요

더 많이 안아주고 싶어요 (yeah)

사랑, 사랑 비슷한 걸 해요

어쩌면 정말 사랑해요

배고플 땐, 이 노래를

아침 사과처럼 꺼내 먹어요

피곤해도, 아침 점심 밥 좀 챙겨 먹어요

그러면 이따 밤에 잠도 잘 올 거에요

Yeah

힘들어요 아름다워서

Yeah (yeah)

Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (yeah)

Ah-ah-ah, oh (알아봐줘요 나를)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (ah-ah), ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah, oh (흘려 보내지 마요 나를)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (yeah), ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah, oh (사랑해줘요 날)

Ah, ah-ah-ah (날), ah-ah-ah (ooh-ooh)

Ah-ah-ah, oh (놓치지 마요)
