The Answer
Motel and the Six Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
(Attention please)
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
(Teach me how to love baby)
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo (sweet AB6ix)
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
(Y'all ready)
너무 가깝지도 멀지도 않게
어정쩡한 거리를 유지해
너의 칼 답장에 비상벨이 울려 ring ring
몇 시간째 입력 중 (my baby)

내 센서는 예민하게 반응하지
네 눈빛 표정 말투에
도무지 안 잡혀 감이
급기야 회전을 멈춘 내 두뇌
Kind of 수수께끼
한국말을 다시 translating
마냥 기다릴지
Go인지 아님 stop인지
Feels like I'm going crazy

어렵다 정말
너에게 과연 난 어디쯤일까 no
솔직해져 봐
어쩔 작정이야

What's the answer 모르겠어
날 시험에 들게 하지 마요
이쯤에서 힌트를 줘
답을 못 찾겠다 꾀꼬리

I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
다른 예는 없어
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo

물불 안 가리고 직진 할라 치면
어김없이 막다른 길에
너도 나만큼 속 터졌으면 좋겠네
누가 와서 채워 줄 수 있게

하지 마 싫진 않다는 말
하지 마 실친 같다는 말
하지 마 감정에 휘말려
자기 사람 잃고 싶지 않다는 말
또 혼자서 yadi yadi yada
민망했다면 내가 미안
사랑에 홀딱 빠진 사람은
대체로 항마력이 뛰어나

못 산다 정말
다 같이 짜고 날 놀리는 걸까 oh
방금 한 입 모양
네 진심인 거야

What's the answer 모르겠어
날 시험에 들게 하지 마요
이쯤에서 힌트를 줘
답을 못 찾겠다 꾀꼬리

I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
다른 예는 없어
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo

그대는 열 번 찍어도 비껴 가는 답
노답은 나 같은 놈을 두고 하는 말
초반부터 꼬인 설정
발단 전개 위기 절정
결말은 어떻게 날까요

What's the answer 모르겠어
날 시험에 들게 하지 마요
이쯤에서 힌트를 줘
답을 못 찾겠다 꾀꼬리

I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo
다른 예는 없어
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo




I really wanna
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo

Overall Meaning

The Answer by Motel and the Six touches upon the theme of love and relationships, and the struggles that come with them. The song describes the distance and uncertainty in their relationship, as well as the confusion and difficulty in decoding their partner's true feelings. The lyrics convey the hope of finding the answer to the questions of love and affection, while acknowledging the complexity and ambiguity of the situation.


The song seems to express the confusion that often comes with romantic relationships. The singer is searching for clarity in not only his own emotional state but also his partner's, as he views the situation as ambiguous and difficult to interpret. This sentiment is further emphasised in the lyrics "Feels like I'm going crazy... What's the answer 모르겠어" which highlights the level of frustration and confusion the singer is experiencing. The use of Korean in the song also adds another layer of complexity and mystery, as the singer needs to translate the language to understand his partner's true feelings.

I saw what you were trying to do with Ed Harcock or w/e by patching him in with Lakeland pd, that was very annoying that it didn’t work out both times ! He got too frustrated the 2nd time and the first time he didn’t bite. That would of changed the whole trajectory of the whole
Call lol for better or worse, either way, he would of ended up..

This is an advanced level prank call. Absolute mastery on this. I hope someday this is put into the Smithsonian.

@Women_Rock

Indeed. Someone could write a PhD thesis based around correlating this to Machiavellian political theory.

@ziongite

The Smithsonian is some unscientific weird American website, you shouldn't mention it if you want actual educated people to take you seriously. The amount of incorrect things claimed on that website make it a joke, sadly that's the nature of the internet however, there are so many ridiculous websites around.
As someone with a degree in biology, I had to facepalm at a few pages on that website, the Smithsonian makes even random websites like CNN look educated, that's saying something.

@fredspringfield2777

@50 You’re talking like a man with a paper a$$hole

@jessicakrans7958

@nancyihrig3663
