알잖아 my name 시선을 뺏지
Attention 홀리듯이 주목해
A level 다른 애들 제껴
Don't care 거침없지
누가 뭘 가르쳐 난 충분해
내 가친 high 걸어 볼 만해
I like it 모두 따라해
이게 뭐 어때 짜릿해
다 바라바라 날 바라 봐
저 봐라 날 따라 와
다 바라바라 날 바라 봐
어쩌겠어 ha
다 바라바라 날 바라 봐
저 봐라 날 따라 와
다 바라바라 날 바라 봐
I'm so punk right now
Uh-uh, I'm so punk right now
I'm so punk right now
이 음악은 나만의 리듬
머리부터 발끝 맡긴 채로 춤을
잘 봐 급이 달라
당당한 태도 (you know 나 좀 바빠)
다 바라바라 날 바라 봐
저 봐라 날 따라 와
다 바라바라 날 바라봐
I'm so punk right now
I'm so punk right now
I'm so punk right now
다같이 비슷해 착해빠져 그래
남다른 my force 자신 있는 pose
내가 만든 기준
전부 궁금하지 주목해봐 지금
색다른 my touch 느껴지는 edge
안 해 뻔한 짓은
I'm so punk right now
I'm so punk right now
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
I'm so punk right now
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
I'm so punk right now
