The lyrics to CLC's song "Pepe" are a mix of Korean and English, but the overall message of the song is about a woman who is confident and knows what she wants in a relationship. The first verse, sung by Seungyeon, asks what the man can give her that she doesn't already have, and refers to the fact that this is the man's responsibility. Sorn follows in the second verse, describing how she feels powerful and self-assured, and that she is a one-of-a-kind woman who doesn't handle betrayal well. Yujin joins in the chorus, talking about how she wants a man who can keep up with her and match her intensity. Seunghee's verse is about how she doesn't want to let a man's pain affect her, and Seungyeon's second verse is about how men often waver and aren't always sure what they want, while also delivering the line "You're so crazy/Amazing, your confidence."
The chorus of the song, sung by all the members, includes the repetition of "hubirue pepe pero," which is a made-up phrase that is meant to sound cute and flirtatious. It's also worth noting the rhythmic hook "utgyeo," which is a Korean slang word for "dance!"

Like the annoying buzz of guys who are just trying to impress you, I'm stumbling around like a lost child. My feelings are jumping up and down like a trampoline. Even though I can't catch up to you now, I'll call you a song when we part. I'll call my family and friends too. Come closer, baby. How to get you is really easy

Underrated Opinion: No offense but maybe I think they should promote CLC more like they did with 4Minute and (G)I-DLE among others, this is a bop and CLC has a lot of talent so if you're a cheshire or another fandom please stream to this work of art.
And this is for Cube:Don't waste the talent of these girls please.
Edit: STREAM HELICOPTER!

Considering how diverse their discography has been throughout their entire career, CLC could have been Red Velvet's rival had Cube promoted them properly.

@sadiesirjue6788
It wasnโt really promotion problems that much. It was the timing that messed everything up.
