ITZY – Bratty (나쁜 애) Lyrics

[Chorus: Ryujin, Yeji]
Yeah, you make me baddie (Baddie)
항상 같은 식인 걸 (I know)
그 흔해 빠진 놀이 속이 보여 훤히
가려지지 않는 걸 (No)
날 선 그 눈빛
매일 질투 섞인 야윤
참 재밌게도 prove me, 이런 아이러니?
넌 좀 배가 아플 듯 (Hm, look at you)

[Verse 1: Yuna, Chaeryeong]
You call me bad, 그래 나쁜 애
언제나 제멋대로 건방지대, yeah (I’m bad)
참 말은 쉬워 그냥 뱉어낸 독 (You know)
아무것도 나를 모르면서
I like 질투 어린 너의 맘이
나를 더 눈부시게 만들 테니
그래 떠들어봐 실컷 talkin’
뻔한 그 속을 잘 알거든

[Pre-Chorus: Yeji]
하나둘씩 다 벗겨진 face
예쁜 가면 뒤 늘 화가 나 있지
Wait, 자 여기 봐 봐, cheese, I’m close up
화내지 말고 너 좀 웃어봐, posing

[Chorus: Lia, Yuna]
I’m bratty (Bratty)
항상 같은 식인 걸 (I know)
그 흔해 빠진 놀이 속이 보여 훤히
가려지지 않는 걸 (No)
뱉어내 bad things
나를 끌어내릴 이윤
참 재밌게도 prove me, 이런 아이러니?
넌 좀 배가 아플 듯

[Verse 2: Ryujin, Lia, Yuna, Chaeryeong]
눈엣가시, 그게 나지
널린 gossip 같은 건 이젠 sweetest (Ooh)
Oh, 너 맘껏 떠들 때 (Okay)
Oh, 난 바삐 발을 떼
I just do what I do
가까워져 가는 꿈 (Ah-ah)
전부 난 웃어넘길게

[Pre-Chorus: Yeji, Yuna]
언제까지 머무를래
See, 내일로 난 계속 나아갈 테니
Wait, 잘 지켜봐 네 자린 거기
나는 앞으로 내일을 향해 posing

[Chorus: Yeji, Chaeryeong]
I’m bratty (Bratty)
항상 같은 식인 걸 (I know)
그 흔해 빠진 놀이 속이 보여 훤히
가려지지 않는 걸 (No)
뱉어내 bad things
나를 끌어내릴 이윤
참 재밌게도 prove me, 이런 아이러니?
넌 좀 배가 아플 듯 (Ooh-ooh)

[Bridge: Lia, Chaeryeong, Yeji]
I’m too cool for ya (Oh-oh)
I’m too cool for ya (Oh-oh)
Just keep talking ’bout me (Yeah, oh)
내가 나빠서
네 맘이 편하다면 (Ooh)
You just keep talking ’bout me
뭐라 해도 난 그냥 나일 테니

[Chorus: Yuna, Ryujin, Lia]
I’m bratty (Bratty; Oh)
항상 같은 식인 걸 (I know; Oh)
그 흔해 빠진 놀이 속이 보여 훤히
가려지지 않는 걸 (No)
날 선 그 눈빛
매일 질투 섞인 야윤 (매일 질투 섞인 야윤)
참 재밌게도 prove me, 이런 아이러니? (Ooh, ooh)
넌 좀 배가 아플 듯 (Ooh, wee)

[Outro: Ryujin]
Hmm-hm
