## Hangul

****You’re so yummy yummy yummy**In my tummy tummy tummy
**Look at you 빨라지는 걸음걸이**Look at me 호기심을 자극하지
Look at them 알아챌 수 없는 거리
Baby don’t panic 한밤의 Party
**차올라 달이 딱 좋은 Timing**
**이건 비밀이야 쉿 우리만의**
**한밤의 Party 널 끌어당김**
**어쩌니 내게 뺏겨버린 환심**

**몽롱한 기분이 좋은 Tonight**색다른 세계로 이끄는 Light
**Follow me, Come and get illusion**한입에 삼켜 널 Delicious**아찔한 미끼로 Hook up**관심을 먹고 Growing up**Follow me, Come and get illusion**몸집을 불려가 Delicious**점점 더 커지는 Fire**관심을 먹고 Growing up
(Will o' the wisp)
**겁내지 말고 이리 온**
(Will o' the wisp)
**겁내지 말고 이리 온**

[**지**/**닝**] Easy peasy 너도 알다시피
[**지**/**닝**] When you dizzy 내겐 그저 Dish
[**카**/**윈**] 도깨비불 너를 놀려 Boo
[**카**/**윈**]예상 못 한 순간 등장하지 불쑥

첨 보는 Style 멋모를 Timing
너의 약점에다 Hit! It’s so funny
한밤의 Party 널 끌어당김
알아도 막을 수 없는 반칙

[**윈**/**닝**] 낯선 이 기분이 묘한 Tonight
[**윈**/**닝**] 감춰둔 본능을 이끄는 Light

**Follow me, Come and get illusion**한입에 삼켜 널 Delicious**아찔한 미끼로 Hook up**관심을 먹고 Growing up[**카**/**닝**] Follow me, Come and get illusion
[**카**/**닝**] 몸집을 불려가 Delicious
[**카**/**닝**] 점점 더 커지는 Fire

(Will o' the wisp)
**겁내지 말고 이리 온**
(Will o' the wisp)
**겁내지 말고 이리 온**

**Yummy yummy yummy**
**In your tummy tummy tummy** **(Ooh ah)**
**놀란 너의 Face 나를 저격하는 Taste** **(Ooh whoa)**

**So fool**

**Follow me, Come and get illusion** **(Yeah yeah)**
**유일한 목격자 You’re the one**
**방심한 틈을 타 Swallow** **(방심한 틈을 타)**
**환상을 먹고 Growing up**
[**윈**/**닝**] Follow me, Come and get illusion
[**윈**/**닝**] 순진한 먹잇감 Delicious

[**윈**/**닝**] 네 맘을 뺏어 Growing up
