TOMBOY
(G)I-DLE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning

(Ahh)
(You tomboy)
Look at you (yeah) 넌 못 감당해 날 (uh)
You took (umm) off hook (yah)
기분은 coke like, brr (brr)
Look at my toe 나의 ex 이름 tattoo
I got to drink up now 니가 싫다 해도 좋아 (ah)

Why are you cranky, boy?
뭘 그리 찡그려, 너?
Do you want a blond Barbie doll?
It's not here, I'm not a doll (like this if you can)

미친년이라 말해 what's the loss to me? Ya
사정없이 까보라고 you'll lose to me, ya
사랑 그깟 거 따위 내 몸에 상처 하나도 어림없지
너의 썩은내 나는 향수나 뿌릴 바엔

Yeah, I'm fu- tomboy
(Uh-uh, ah-ah, uh-uh)
Yeah, I'll be the tomboy
(Uh-uh, ah-ah)
This is my attitude
Yeah, I'll be the tomboy

SY
I don't wanna play this ping pong
I would rather film a TikTok
Your mom raised you as a prince, but
This is queendom, right?
I like to dance, I love my friends
Sometimes we swear without cigarettes
I like to eh, on drinking whiskey
I won't change it, what the hell?

미친 척이라 말해 what's the loss to me? Ya
사정없이 씹으라고 you're lost to me, ya
사랑 그깟 거 따위 내 눈에 눈물 한 방울 어림없지
너의 하찮은 말에 미소나 지을 바엔

Yeah, I'm fu- tomboy
(Uh-uh, ah-ah, uh-uh)
Yeah, I'll be the tomboy
(Uh-uh, ah-ah)
This is my attitude
Yeah, I'll be the tomboy

Said you get up?
Uh, you get the song right
You'll get what I mean "Tomboy", uh

La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
(Umm, umm, you're brand new)

La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
(Three, two, one)

It's neither man nor woman
Man nor woman
It's neither man nor woman
Just me, I-DLE

It's neither man nor woman
Man nor woman
It's neither man nor woman
Just me, loving tomboy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of (G)I-DLE's song Tomboy convey a message of empowerment, self-acceptance and defiance. The song exhibits the girl group's confident and strong persona while urging listeners to break away from societal expectations and be true to themselves. The song speaks of embracing a masculine aura and being comfortable in one's skin, disregarding gender norms and restrictions imposed by society. The lyrics talk about how the members don't want to be pigeonholed as a typical girl who likes All things pink, who listens to vocaloid music or likes to play ping pong. They would rather be seen as themselves, tomboys, who thrive in their community of friends, enjoy dancing and clubbing, and aren't afraid to drink whiskey. The lyrics convey the message that it's okay to be different and be true to oneself.
