Red Velvet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

불 꺼진 방엔
언제 또 들어왔니?
마치 넌 mosquito (진동소리)
마치 넌 mosquito (무슨일이야?)
마치 넌 mosquito (너 자꾸 이러기야?)

신경이 바짝 곤두선 채 너를 어떡할까 고민 중
평화로운 나의 시간을 아주 단숨에 깨버린 너 no
내 맘속 깊숙이 wow wow wow 돌아다니다
찾을 땐 숨어버리지 날 자꾸 맴도는 넌 mosquito, mosquito

Ooh 잠이 들려고 할 때
울린 진동소리
이 밤에 또 무슨 일야? 너 자꾸 이러기야? ah ooh

아무 사이 아닌데 왜 또 그런 식으로 농담을 해 ah ooh
혹시나 한 마음이 들었던 나는 또 뭐가 돼? ah ah
넌 너무 가벼워 oh oh oh oh 날아가 버릴 듯 oh oh oh oh
재미없어 난 멈춰줄래? oh

Ooh 잠이 들려고 할 때 울린 진동소리
이 밤에 또 무슨 일야? 너 자꾸 이러기야? ah ooh

간지러운 사인 oh ooh oh
거기까지 oh oh
넌 나빠 해롭지 oh-e-oh-oh
마치 넌 mosquito (na na na na na)
너는 mosquito (Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z)
자꾸 선을 넘어 너는 자꾸 선을 넘어 넘어 매너없이 oh!

진지한 척 목소리엔 온통 장난이 가득해 ah ooh
일방적인 네 말이 기계음같이 막 윙윙대 ooh huh
눈을 꼭 감아도 oh oh oh oh
두 귀를 막아도 oh oh oh oh
항상 나타나 귀찮게 해 oh

잠이 들려고 할 때 울린 진동소리
이 밤에 또 무슨 일야? 너 자꾸 이러기야? ah ooh

간지러운 사인 oh ooh oh
거기까지 oh oh
넌 나빠 해롭지 oh-e-oh-oh
마치 넌 mosquito (na na na na na)
너는 mosquito (Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z)
자꾸 선을 넘어 너는 자꾸 선을 넘어 넘어 매너없이 oh!

가깝다고 느꼈어 그래서 더 다가가면 넌 늘 사라져
그 맘에 없는 말도 다신 속지 않을 테니 알아둬
더 이상은 내게 제멋대로 굴지 마

간지러운 사인 oh ooh oh
거기까지 oh oh
넌 나빠 해롭지 oh-e-oh-oh
마치 넌 mosquito (na na na na na)




너는 mosquito (Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z)
자꾸 선을 넘어 너는 자꾸 선을 넘어 넘어 매너없이 oh!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Mosquito" by Red Velvet portray an individual who is being harassed by someone who is as insistent as a mosquito. The opening verse establishes a darkened room and a persistent buzz, questioning who has entered. The singer is thrown out of their peaceful state of mind by their unwanted guest, who acts like a mosquito by spiralling around their head, unrelenting in their disruption. The singer is confounded as to how to deal with them, as they try and maintain their sanity. The incessant buzz in the background vocals is the sound of the mosquito buzzing around their ear, drawing mental images of how aggravating it is, which further helps to bring the song's lyrics to life.


The chorus, with its vibrating synth beats and the catchy refrain of "mosquito," repeats the message conveyed in the verses. The unwanted guest's behavior has turned from irritating to outright unacceptable, and the singer refuses to tolerate it. The bridge indicates that the singer has become tired of the mosquitolike figure, with their inscrutable jokes and one-sided conversations. They demand that the mosquito figure quit their bothersome behavior and cause no further disturbance, resulting in an apparent bluff.
