PAY DAY
Changmo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hah hah, hah hah yeah uh

나란 놈이란 참 골 때린 존재
고통이 가득했었던 게 아직 어제
그런데 망각해 오늘 내일 일이
모두 잘 풀릴 듯, 저 노을빛 I'm feeling
소주파, 그러나 나는 오늘 칵테일이
좀 끌린다구 난 몰라 뭔지 마티니
어린 내게 맛난 샷을 맥이던 형
형과 내 돈으로 마셔버려, 정기고
한 컵, 두 컵, 한 병 three bottles
난 오늘 그렇게까지 달릴거야, 막지말어
보상받듯이, 망할 구른 시간을
그리고 뻗고 깨어나 가질거야 티타임을
기억과 술이 섞이면서, 갇혀 환희에
이십대가 꺾이면서, 삶이 꽃 피네
난 오늘 거침없어, 밤을 꼭 쥐고서
만끽할 거야 많은 사람들 속에 섞이면서 (ah)

Look at me now
이제 날아오를 시간이야
Hold up! Let's bottoms up
Hold up! Let's bottoms up
Hold up! Let's bottoms up
Hold up! Let's bottoms up!

I feel alright
I feel so nice
I feel it, let's get lost tonight, tonight! (yeah yeah uh)

Tonight 쌓인
일과 스트레스 전부다
날려버리고 나와
I mean we need a party 달려왔잖아 all night
그렇기에 오늘 let's ride
꽉 잡아 hold on tight
갈거니까 끝까지 다 기다려왔어 right
오늘은 우릴 위한 시간
이젠 힘들일 없어 이 밤이
내일도 여기서 봐 good night

I feel alright
I feel so nice
I feel it, let's get lost tonight, tonight!
I feel alright
I feel so nice
I feel it, let's get lost tonight, tonight!

Lodi dodi we like the party
기분 좋은 이 밤
이제 (이제) 부터 좋은 일들만 있을거야
How you feel?

I feel alright
I feel so nice
I feel it, let's get lost tonight (tonight), tonight!
I feel alright




I feel so nice
I feel it, let's get lost tonight (tonight), tonight!
