SUNMI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
처진 고개를 더 세워
Umm 온 신경이 곤두서
이건 아마도 널
할퀸 순간부터겠지
Do it baby, it's okay
세상을 가진 것 마냥
뭐가 좋은데 그리 웃어대는데
Make it right till I die baby
Aww aww aww (aww aww aww)
딱 거기까지만 oh
니 입꼬리 올라가는 소리
여기까지 들려
아쉬워하기엔 너무 빨라
알잖아 wait for it
우린 미친 듯이 사랑하고
미친 듯 입을 맞추고
미친 듯 머릴 흔들어
(흔들어 흔들어)
우린 미친 듯이 사랑하고
미친 듯 입을 맞추고
미친 듯 꼬릴 흔들어
(흔들어 흔들어)
I'm not much of a drinker
But I'm a dream girl (yeah)
물음표? 물음표?
그만 좀 물어 대
니 마지막 말에 꼬리치면
따다딱 거기까지만
Do it baby it's okay
세상을 가진 것 마냥
이기적이게 그냥 ha ha ha
뭐가 좋은데 그리 웃어대는데
Make it right till I die baby
Aww aww aww (aww aww aww)
딱 거기까지만 oh
니 입꼬리 올라가는 소리
여기까지 들려
아쉬워하기엔 너무 빨라
알잖아 wait for it
우린 미친 듯이 사랑하고
미친 듯 입을 맞추고
미친 듯 머릴 흔들어
(흔들어 흔들어)
우린 미친 듯이 사랑하고
미친 듯 입을 맞추고
미친 듯 꼬릴 흔들어
꼬리를 높이 세워
더 예민하게 aww (aww aww aww)
꼬리를 높이 세워
더 예민하게
딱 거기 까지만 oh
니 입꼬리 올라가는 소리
여기까지 들려
아쉬워하기엔 너무 빨라
알잖아 wait for it
우린 미친 듯이 사랑하고
미친 듯 입을 맞추고
미친 듯 머릴 흔들어

The song "Tail" by SunMi talks about the adrenaline rush of a passionate but short-lived romantic encounter. SunMi encourages her partner to be confident and dominant in the situation, to act as if they have everything in the world, even if it is just for the moment. She wants to experience the intensity and madness of love, to kiss and embrace as if they are going mad, to shake their heads and hold onto each other tightly. The repetitive lines of "딱 거기까지만" (Just up until there) indicate that SunMi knows the nature of their relationship and is willing to enjoy their time together without any expectation of permanence. She is willing to be the dream girl for this dream-like relationship, and she encourages her partner to enjoy the moment and make it right until the end.
Overall, the song "Tail" is all about living in the moment, enjoying a temporary relationship with all of the intensity and passion that comes along with it. The lyrics' message is encouraging people to appreciate and make the most of what is available to them, without worrying too much about the future, and to zestfully "shake" or "twist" their tails, signifying that they are living in the moment.

선미 노래 중에 꼬리가 역대 최고다
앞으로 이 노래를 뛰어 넘는 노래가 또 나올까?
아마 이 노래를 뛰어 넘는 노래는 나오기 힘들지 않을까 싶다
곡의 구성(기승전결)
무대의상 표정연기 퍼포먼스
모든 것이 완벽하다
이제 역대 최고의 여자 댄스 솔로 가수는
선미라고 해도 과언이 아닐 정도다
역대 여자 댄스 가수 중에
히트곡도 가장 많고
역대급 레전드 곡도 만들어냈으니 말이지
선미는 이제 레전드 가수라 불릴 만 하다
앞으로 선미를 뛰어 넘는 여자 댄스 가수가 나올런지 궁금하네
아마 몇 십년 간은 나오기 힘들지 않을까 싶다

Sunmi didn't fall off the building just because the man let go of her hand. She fell because she was carrying all the Kpop industry on her and that made her lose her balance.
