She's such a transformer

EXO, let's go

Uh, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up

설명하기 어려워, 그녀 뭐야 대체 뭔데?

seol-myeong-ha-gi eo-ryeo-wo, geu-nyeo mwo-ya dae-che mwon-de?

저기, 저기, 저기, 저기

jeo-gi, jeo-gi, jeo-gi, jeo-gi

순식간에 돌변하면 감당하기 힘든데

sun-sik-gan-e dol-byeon-ha-myeon gam-dang-ha-gi him-deun-de

You slow down, then you speed up

답은 없지, 그저 멍하니 바라봤어
