[English]

Oh no, yeah yeah

Going nonstop

...

Ooh nana

It’s unbelievable, right? Ya-ya-ya-ya

We’re a sign that there’s nothing we don’t know about each other

So obvious, na-na-na-na-na, like, na-na-na-na-na

There’s no way there’s any secret between us, we’ve seen everything

Hi, hi, weak body

Like them burning and burning, but shh

These days, every day, different clothes I wear

Look so different, huh

You know everything, even my dark past

Yeah, there’s no way, I’m not like that

Never ever, I have to be this way

It’s like I fell onto a deserted island one day

If only the two of us were left, what would you do

Just thinking about it, I’m scared, I frowned

But I absolutely can’t tell you

I got a little excited, oh, na-na-na-na-na

I got a little excited, oh, na-na-na-na-na

It’s unlikely to happen, but I got a little excited

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

It’s unlikely, but I got a little excited

Lately I feel so lonely

I think I’ve become a bit strange

Seeing you makes my heart race

Back it up, pack it up, step aside

That pounding heart is the problem

No, why is that a crime

Crossed the line, FZ radar

Up and down, here’s the friend zone

It’s like falling onto a deserted island one day

If only the two of us were left, what would you do

Just thinking about it, I’m scared, I frowned

But I absolutely can’t tell you

I got a little excited, oh, na-na-na-na-na

I got a little excited, oh, na-na-na-na-na

It’s unlikely, but I got a little excited

I have to go to bed by night

Am I feeling sleepy? That’s the time

Probably unnecessary

My mind’s already on the shortcut

If you want, I’ll step back two spaces

Did you want twin spots? Nope, just one space

Don’t pretend to be sorry, it’s real—you're excited

It’s pretty confusing, even I, more than anyone else

At times like this, I look for you

But I can’t tell you about this worry

Since when, just seeing you, I get a little excited

I got a little excited (Yeah yeah!) oh, na-na-na-na-na (hey hey)

I got a little excited (let's go) oh, na-na-na-na-na

It’s unlikely, but I got a little excited

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

(Oh oh oh) It’s unlikely, but I got a little excited

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

(Nonstop) You wouldn’t know, but I got a little excited

...

[Korean]

Oh no, yeah yeah

Going nonstop

Ooh nana

말도 안 되잖아 그치 ya-ya-ya-ya

우린 서로가 모르는 게 없는 사인 걸

이토록 빤히 na-na-na-na-na, like, na-na-na-na-na

우리 사이 비밀 따위 있을 리 없는 걸 다 봤지 우린

Hi, hi, weak body

Like them burning and burn but 쉿

요즘 오늘 또 내일 매일 다른 아는 옷

이렇게 달라 보인다고 hoo

흑역사까지 전부 알고 있는 널

Yeah 절대 그럴 리는 없어 난

Never ever 그래야만 해

무인도에 어느 날 떨어진 거야

둘만 남게 됐다면 넌 어떨 것 같아

생각만 해도 무섭다 얼굴을 찌푸렸지만

너에겐 얘기 못 해 절대로

살짝 설렜어 난 oh, na-na-na-na-na

살짝 설렜어 난 oh, na-na-na-na-na

그럴 일 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

그럴 일 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난

요즘 나 너무 외로워

좀 이상해진 것 같아

너를 보면서 심장이 뛴 건

Back it up, pack it up 비켜 서 있어

두근거렸던 게 문제야

아냐 그게 대체 왜 죄야

선을 넘은 거야 FZ 레이더

오르락내리락 여긴 friend zone

무인도에 어느 날 떨어진 거야

둘만 남게 됐다면 넌 어떨 것 같아

생각만 해도 무섭다 얼굴을 찌푸렸지만

너에겐 얘기 못 해 절대로

살짝 설렜어 난 oh, na-na-na-na-na

살짝 설렜어 난 oh, na-na-na-na-na

그럴 일 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난

I have to go to the bed by night

졸음이 오는 걸까 time

필요하지 않지 아마

머릿속은 이미 지름길이잖아

네가 원한다면 내가 뒤로 두 칸

Did you wanna twin spot, nope 한 칸

유감인 척 하지 마 설레는 거 맞잖아

꽤나 혼란스러워 이러는 나도 누구보다 더

이럴 땐 너를 찾아갔지만

이 고민만큼은 네게 말할 수 없어

언제부턴가 널 보면 살짝 설렜어 난

살짝 설렜어 난 (Yeah yeah!) oh, na-na-na-na-na (hey hey)

살짝 설렜어 난 (let's go) oh, na-na-na-na-na

그럴 일 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

(Oh oh oh) 그럴 일 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난

Nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop, nonstop

(Nonstop) 넌 알 리 없지만 살짝 설렜어 난
