Umpah umpah umpah umpah
Umpah umpah umpah umpah
Here we go now! Umpah-pah huh yeah, uh yeah

경고하는데 조심해야 돼 깊을지도 몰라
여럿 봤는데 못 나오던데 왜? 나도 몰라
내게 묻지 마 얼마나 깊은지 내 눈은 못 보니까 (hoo hoo)
허우적대는 저 다른 애들과 넌 다르길 바라

막 답답하고 숨이 막히고 내게 빠진 거 맞지?
너무 겁먹지 마 난 바로 너야 넌
숨만 쉬어도 내 짝이 될 테니까

Feel the rhythm
몸이 기억하는 대로 좋아
Something unforgettable

바로 지금
맘이 흘러가는 대로 좋아
수평선 위를 나는 거야

Umpah umpah umpah umpah 호흡을 맞추고
Umpah umpah umpah umpah 두 눈을 맞추고
Umpah umpah umpah umpah
너와 나 좋아 something unforgettable

Let the beat drop
기분 so so hot hot, ooh yeah yeah

Baby, umpah-pah 응? 좀 이상해 (ding!)
음, 어디 갔어? 자꾸 너 박자를 놓쳐? 경고야 너 또 물먹어

자꾸만 dumb dumb 잠깐만 huh?
궁금해? 이 빠-빨간 맛 yeah
행복이란 가깝지 like ice cream cake! (cream cake!) yeah

막 정신없고 (막 정신없고) 숨이 막히고 (숨이 막히고) 내게 빠진 거 맞지?
너무 겁먹지 마 난 항상 너야 넌
숨만 쉬어도 곧 떠오를 테니까 (널 테니까)

Feel the rhythm
몸이 기억하는 대로 좋아
Something unforgettable (unforgettable)

바로 지금
맘이 흘러가는 대로 좋아
수평선 위를 나는 거야

Umpah umpah umpah umpah 리듬을 맞추고
Umpah umpah umpah umpah 두 발을 맞추고
Umpah umpah umpah umpah
너와 나 좋아 something unforgettable (unforgettable, unforgettable)

태양을 담은 너의 그 눈빛 속 날 봐 (날 봐)
잊지 못할 이 순간 좋아 (hoo)

Feel the rhythm
몸이 기억하는 대로 좋아
Something unforgettable (unforgettable)

바로 지금
맘이 흘러가 네 몸을 맡겨 내 손을 놓지 마
수평선 위를 나는 거야
