The lyrics to Red Velvet's song Red Dress are about the confidence and power that comes with wearing a red dress. The song talks about how the members of Red Velvet look great and feel amazing in their red dresses. The lyrics also mention the importance of being honest and showing what you want in life. There is a playful and flirtatious tone in the lyrics, as the members ask the listener to tell them what they want and show them what they want.
The first verse is sung by Joy, who talks about how she and Red Velvet do things their own way. Wendy then sings that their music is always upbeat and high-energy. Seulgi sings about how the listener is looking at her in her red dress, while Wendy wonders why they always act like they don't know her on other days. Irene comes in with a rap verse, asking the listener to be honest with her and tell her what they want. Yeri also has a rap verse, asking what the listener wants to say to her.
The chorus talks about how confident and powerful the members feel in their red dresses. They compare themselves to hot embers and bright blossoms, and they tell the listener that they want to show them their red dresses. The song then goes into a bridge section, where the members talk about how they feel when they wear a red dress. They say that they don't feel nervous or insecure anymore, and that they can be themselves. The chorus then repeats to end the song.
Line by Line Meaning
Yeah you know how we do
We are confident and experienced in doing things our way
Our tune is so high
Our music is energetic and upbeat
You look at me like I'm a child
You underestimate me because of my youthful appearance
You smile and look at me, pretending not to know why
You act oblivious to my capabilities and intelligence while giving me a fake smile
Why do you keep playing dumb?
Why do you act like you don't know what's going on?
Why did you request a good day?
Why did you ask for a great day and then act like you don't know what's happening?
Tell me what you want, what you want it
Please be honest and tell me what you want
The truth is, you're my type
Honestly, I am attracted to you
Show me what you want, what you want it
Please be clear and show me what you want
From head to toe, uh
Everything about you
Uh-uh, if you want to know, should I tell you?
Uh-uh, if you want me to be open, should I disclose?
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Rise up and take action
It's okay if you guide me
It's fine if you show me the way
Like a ripe ruby, my heart pounds rapidly
My heart beats quickly and asserts my attraction to you
Like a passionate red apple, I'm unique
I am bright and bold, like a red apple
A Red Dress that suits you
A red dress that complements your personality
My sweet love, when I call you
My dear, when I contact you
I will never be hesitant again
I will no longer hold back or second-guess myself
What did you think of my slightly different appearance?
How did you react to my unique and unconventional look?
Quickly go this way and that way, like flying up into the sky
I move around quickly and carelessly
Watch me, Red Dresses on
Observe me as I wear my red dresses
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Rise up and take action
It's okay even if you come closer
It's fine if you approach me
Like a ripe ruby, my heart pounds rapidly
My heart beats quickly and asserts my attraction to you
Like a passionate red apple, I'm unique
I am bright and bold, like a red apple
A Red Dress that suits you
A red dress that complements your personality
I can't stop like a ripe fruit
I can't hold back my emotions
Like a red candy, my feelings tingle
My emotions give me a sensation, like a red candy
A Red Dress that suits you
A red dress that complements your personality
I don't have any sweet words to say
I don't have any charming things to say
Just like I'm an innocent child
Just like how I appear sweet and innocent
I felt a genuine feeling
I experienced a true emotion
My thumping heart is the smile of love
My beating heart shows that I am in love
It's you, I scream
It's you, I call out for
Like a ripe ruby, my heart pounds rapidly
My heart beats quickly and asserts my attraction to you
Like a passionate red apple, I'm unique
I am bright and bold, like a red apple
A Red Dress that suits you
A red dress that complements your personality
I can't stop like a ripe fruit
I can't hold back my emotions
Like a red candy, my feelings tingle
My emotions give me a sensation, like a red candy
A Red Dress that suits you
A red dress that complements your personality
