Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

웃지마 너 재수 없어 웃지마
붙지마 좀 가까이 좀 붙지마
속지마 내가 이렇게 웃지만
나를 볼 수 있는 것도
오늘 밤이 마지막
웃지마 너 재수 없어 웃지마
붙지마 좀 가까이 좀 붙지마
속지마 내가 이렇게 웃지만
나를 볼 수 있는 것도
오늘 밤이 마지막
THAT\'S YOU
천만 다행이야
네가 이럴 줄이야 꿈에도 몰랐어
몰래 눈을 피해서 다른 여잘 만났던
나쁜 YOU YOU
THANK U VERY MUCH AH WOO
THANK U VERY VERY MUCH
유우우우
THANK U VERY VERY MUCH
유우우우
알아서 꺼져주니까
맘 아플 일 없으니까
OH THANK U OH THANK U
너에게서 난 이제 자유
너에게서 난 이제 자유
알아서 꺼져주니까
맘 아플 일 없으니까
OH THANK U OH THANK U
웃지마 너 재수 없어 웃지마
붙지마 좀 가까이 좀 붙지마
속지마 내가 이렇게 웃지만
나를 볼 수 있는 것도
오늘 밤이 마지막
난 나나 난 나나 난나
속이 시원해 노래 불러
난 나나 난 나나 난나
내 머리 속에서 넌
THAT\'S YOU 천만 다행이야
네가 이럴 줄이야 꿈에도 몰랐어
몰래 눈을 피해서 다른 여잘 만났던

혹시 길에서라도
다시 우연이라도 만나지마
모른 척 지나가 제발
THANK U VERY VERY MUCH

유우우우
알아서 꺼져주니까 맘
아플 일 없으니까
OH THANK U OH THANK U
나 이제 자유 너 없는 자유
나 이제 자유 너 없는 자유
알아서 꺼져주니까 맘

Overall Meaning

The song "The Very Thought of You" by G.B.L. tells the story of a struggling musician who desperately wants his song to become number one, but can't seem to get it played on the radio. He strikes a deal with a radio DJ who promises to help him, but things don't go as planned. The lyrics reflect the idea that success and fame don't come easily, and that sometimes people will do whatever it takes to get ahead.


The first verse sets the scene, with the singer saying he could never "sleep his way to the top," meaning that he couldn't take the easy way out to succeed. He strikes a deal with the DJ, who gives him advice on investing in order to eventually become successful. The DJ tells him that other musicians who have become successful have had to forgive themselves for past mistakes, and that the rewards they eventually received made up for their missteps. In the end, however, the singer is left without the success he desired, and the DJ has disappeared.


The lyrics suggest a world in which success comes at a price, and that there is often a lot of behind-the-scenes maneuvering and backroom deals necessary to achieve it. The singer is willing to do whatever it takes to make his song a hit, even though he knows it's not a sure thing. The DJ appears to be a shady character who is always looking for an angle, and in the end he betrays the singer, leaving him with nothing but empty promises.


Overall, the lyrics of "The Very Thought of You" are a cautionary tale about the cost of success and the dangers of trusting others too much. They suggest that the road to success can be a long and difficult one, and that not everyone who promises to help you will actually come through in the end.


Line by Line Meaning

I could never sleep my way to the top
I cannot achieve success through unethical means


'Cause my alarm clock always wakes me right up
I cannot oversleep or avoid hard work


And since my options had been whittled away
I have limited choices in life


I struck a bargain with my radio DJ
I made a deal with a person in power to help me achieve success


I'd like this song to be number one
I want to be successful in the music industry


He said 'I'd really really like to help you my son'
The person in power agrees to help me achieve success


And then I knew that I would have him to thank
I understood that the person in power would be instrumental to my success


Because he asked me how much I had in the bank
The person in power is interested in my financial status and potential investment


He said to think long term investment and
The person in power advises me to consider a long-term investment strategy


That all the others had forgiven themselves
The person in power suggests that others have moved on from their mistakes


He said the net reward would justify
The person in power believes that the return on investment will be worth the risk


The colossal mess they'd made of their lives
Despite past failures, the person in power believes that investment can still bring success and redemption


He said the record wouldn't have to be hot
The quality of the music is not the most important factor for success


And no one ever seemed to care if it's not
The public may not judge music by its quality, but rather by other factors


It would depend on something else that I've got
Success may require factors other than musical talent


And that the other ones who'd given it a shot
Others who have tried to succeed in music have also faced challenges and setbacks


Had seen a modest sum grow geometrically
Some have achieved substantial financial success through wise investment


And then they had forgiven themselves
Successful investment helped them move on from past failures


Because the net reward had justified
Financial success made up for past mistakes


The colossal mess they'd made of their lives
The financial gains helped them overcome their previous failures


Hey Mr. DJ, I thought you said we had a deal
I am frustrated that the person in power did not fulfill our agreement


I wonder when they're gonna clean up the mess
I am concerned about societal issues and hope for solutions


You know the rabid child is still tuning in
The public is still interested in music, regardless of the quality or potential harm associated with it


Chess piece face's patience must be wearing thin
Even those in power who benefit from the music industry may be growing tired of its negative effects


Because they haven't played this song on the air
My music has not received the attention I was promised


Not that anyone but me even cared
I feel like no one else values or appreciates my music


And the Disk Jockey has moved out of town
The person in power is no longer around to fulfill their promise


The district courthouse says he's nowhere to be found
I am unable to hold the person in power accountable for their promised support
