PRISTIN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
보고 싶을 때 왜 말을 못 하니 너란 애는
어딜 봐도 아까도 네가 내 시야에 걸려 eh
손에 잡힐 것 같을 때 뻗어야 잡힐 걸 나
네 생각보다 내 스케줄은 바빠 (you know)
Hey boy 쭈뼛쭈뼛 거리면 나
긴가민가 헷갈려 좀
Ah woo 티나 티나 티나
네 맘 너무 티가 나
뭔가 착한 소년인 척
가만있음 1도 안 통해 (못 느껴)
티나 티나 티나
많은 걸 바라는 게 아냐 난
네 맘속 나는 뭘까 check it 해
내가 잡힌 것 같다고 잡힌 게 아닐 걸
나 네 생각보다 내 스케줄은 바빠 (you know)
Hey boy 사리 살짝 스친 손에
아직도 머뭇거리는 너
눈치코치 보지 좀 마
Ah woo 티나 티나 티나
네 맘 너무 티가 나
뭔가 착한 소년인 척
가만있음 1도 안 통해 (못 느껴)
티나 티나 티나
한 달, 두 달 끌면 나 더 답답해져 가
앞, 뒷모습, 옆 태도 너 티나 티가 나
Checkin' your eyes
I don't know what happened now
이래도 저래도 너 역시
내 맘에 와준다고 한다면
그 한마디에 괜스레 난 미소가
Come on boy!
You're so shy boy, but 난 좀 급한 아이
네 마음 내게 다 들통나 버림
그러니 나보다 네가 먼저 고백해
굳이 고민은 no, 말아
꾹꾹 눌러 담지 마
소심한 아이처럼 넌 티가 나
티나 티나 티나
그래 나는 티가 나
뭔가 착한 소년처럼 가만있음 1도 못 나가 (못 나가)
티나 티나 티나
한 달, 두 달 끌면 나
더 답답해져 가
앞, 뒷모습, 옆 태도
우린 티나 티나
The lyrics to PRISTIN's TINA speak about a girl who is interested in a boy but is too shy to express her feelings. She finds it difficult to say anything to him when she misses him and reminds herself to act cool around him to hide her feelings. The girl evaluates the boy's actions and tries to guess his feelings towards her but is often left unsure. As time goes by without any progress, she becomes more agitated and even considers confessing to him herself.
The song portrays the relatable and common struggle of being too shy to express one's feelings towards someone they like. It highlights the difficult balancing act of trying to maintain composure and not showing too much affection, while at the same time desiring to let one's feelings be known to the other person. The chorus 'TINA TINA TINA' is used to represent the physical manifestation of the girl's emotions, which are too evident for her to conceal.
Overall, PRISTIN's TINA follows a relatable storyline that many listeners can relate to, with a message of taking the risk and confessing to the person you like.

보고 싶을 때 왜 말을 못 하니 너란 애는
Why can't I express that I miss you, you are always on my mind
어딜 봐도 아까도 네가 내 시야에 걸려 eh
Wherever I look, even now, my sight is on you, eh
손에 잡힐 것 같을 때 뻗어야 잡힐 걸 나
I should have reached out when I felt like I could hold on to you
네 생각보다 내 스케줄은 바빠 (you know)
My schedule is busier than you think (you know)
Hey boy 쭈뼛쭈뼛 거리면 나
Hey boy, if I look hesitant
긴가민가 헷갈려 좀
It means I'm confused and unsure
머리 쓰는 척하지 마
Don't pretend to use your head
Ah woo 티나 티나 티나
Ah woo, it's obvious, it's obvious, it's obvious
네 맘 너무 티가 나
Your heart is too obvious
뭔가 착한 소년인 척
Acting like a kind boy
가만있음 1도 안 통해 (못 느껴)
Staying still, you don't understand anything (you can't feel it)
많은 걸 바라는 게 아냐 난
I don't want much
네 맘속 나는 뭘까 check it 해
I wonder what you think of me, check it out
내가 잡힌 것 같다고 잡힌 게 아닐 걸
Thinking I've caught you, but I haven't really
Hey boy 사리 살짝 스친 손에
Hey boy, with a lightly touched hand
아직도 머뭇거리는 너
You're still hesitating
눈치코치 보지 좀 마
Stop looking around so much
한 달, 두 달 끌면 나 더 답답해져 가
If we drag it out for a month or two, I'll become more frustrated
앞, 뒷모습, 옆 태도 너 티나 티가 나
Your attitude in front, behind, and to the side is obvious
Checkin' your eyes
Checkin' your eyes
I don't know what happened now
I don't know what happened now
이래도 저래도 너 역시
Either way, you too
내 맘에 와준다고 한다면
If you say you come into my heart
그 한마디에 괜스레 난 미소가
Suddenly I smile at those words
Come on boy!
Come on boy!
You're so shy boy, but 난 좀 급한 아이
You're so shy boy, but I'm an impatient girl
네 마음 내게 다 들통나 버림
Your heart will be exposed to me
그러니 나보다 네가 먼저 고백해
So you confess to me before I do
굳이 고민은 no, 말아
No need to hesitate, don't do it
꾹꾹 눌러 담지 마
Don't press it too hard, don't keep it inside
소심한 아이처럼 넌 티가 나
You are obvious like a timid child
그래 나는 티가 나
Yes, I am obvious
뭔가 착한 소년처럼 가만있음 1도 못 나가 (못 나가)
Pretending to be a kind boy, I can't stay still (I can't leave)
우린 티나 티나
We are obvious, obvious
