Full Lyrics - Korean & English
우리 엄만 매일 내게 말했어 언제나 남자 조심하라고
My mom always told me to be careful with men.
사랑은 마치 불장난 같아서 다치니까, eh
Love is like playing with fire, it hurts.
엄마 말이 꼭 맞을지도 몰라, 널 보면 내 맘이 뜨겁게 달아올라
She might be right, when I see you, my heart heats up.
두려움보단 널 향한 끌림이 더 크니까, eh
The attraction I feel for you is greater than my fear.
멈출 수 없는 이 떨림은 on and on and on
This uncontrollable thrill goes on and on and on.
내 전부를 너란 세상에 다 던지고 싶어
I want to throw everything into this world you are.
Look at me, look at me now, 이렇게 넌 날 애태우고 있잖아
Look at me, look at me now, you're making me anxious.
끌 수 없어, 우리 사랑은 불장난
I can't stop, our love is playing with fire.
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh.
Now burn, baby, burn (불장난)
Now burn, baby, burn (playing with fire).
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh.
So don't play with me, boy (불장난)
So don't play with me, boy (playing with fire).
Oh no, 난 이미 멀리 와버렸는걸
Oh no, I've already come too far.
어느새 이 모든 게 장난이 아닌 걸
This is no longer a game.
사랑이란 빨간 불씨
Love is a red ember.
불어라 바람 더 커져가는 불길
Blow, wind, the flame grows.
이게 약인지 독인지 우리 엄마도 몰라
Is this a remedy or poison? Even my mom doesn't know.
내 맘 도둑인데 왜 경찰도 몰라
It's a heart thief, why doesn't the police know?
불 붙은 내 심장에 더 부어라 너란 기름
Pour more oil on my burning heart.
Kiss him? Will I diss him? I don't know but I miss him
Kiss him? Will I diss him? I don't know, but I miss him.
중독을 넘어선 이 사랑은 crack
This love that surpasses addiction is crack.
내 심장의 색깔은 black (ah)
The color of my heart is black (ah).
멈출 수 없는 이 떨림은 on and on and on
This uncontrollable thrill goes on and on and on.
내 전부를 너란 불길 속으로 던지고 싶어
I want to throw everything into this flame that you are.
Look at me, look at me now, 이렇게 넌 날 애태우고 있잖아
Look at me, look at me now, you're making me anxious.
끌 수 없어, 우리 사랑은 불장난
I can't stop, our love is playing with fire.
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh.
Now burn, baby, burn (불장난)
Now burn, baby, burn (playing with fire).
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh
(Uh-oh, uh-oh) my love is on fire, ooh.
So don't play with me, boy (불장난)
So don't play with me, boy (playing with fire).
걷잡을 수가 없는 걸
I can't control myself.
너무나 빨리 퍼져 가는 이 불길
This flame is spreading too fast.
이런 날 멈추지 마
Don't stop me like this.
이 사랑이 오늘 밤을 태워버리게, ooh-ooh
Let this love burn the night away, ooh-ooh.
