TWIST English Translation Lyrics by WayV
I see you keepin’ it chill
I see you keeping it chill
Icy you cool in the corner
Icy, you’re cool in the corner
너의 모습 숨긴 채로
Hiding your true self
Girl you sticking to orders
Girl, you’re sticking to orders
Wasn’t born to stay still
Wasn’t born to stay still
위태로운 걸 알아
Knowing it’s risky
나를 비틀고서
Twisting me around
맘을 알아채는 순간에
In the moment you realize my feelings
Twist twist baby show me shake
Twist twist baby show me shake
예상 못 한 말로,
With unexpected words,
뒤흔들어 봐 (Ahhh)
Shake me up (Ahhh)
Twist twist baby show me shake
Twist twist baby show me shake
Come on make my day girl,
Come on make my day girl,

터질 듯한 감정도
Even bursting emotions
(That’s the way how we like it)
(That’s the way how we like it)
Places we ain’t been before
Places we ain’t been before
데려가 줘 매일, 새로워
Take me there every day, make it new
