So-sour candy

(So-sour candy)

I'm sour candy, so sweet, then I get a little angry, yeah

Sour candy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm super psycho, make you crazy when I turn the lights low

Sour candy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ask me to be nice, and then I'll do it extra mean

뜻밖의 표정 하나에 넌 당황하겠지

tteus-bak-ui pyo-jeong ha-na-e neon dang-hwang-ha-gess-ji
