BBIBBI (삐삐) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hi there 인사해 호들갑 없이
시작해요 서론 없이
Skinship은 사양할게요 back off, back off
이대로 좋아요 balance, balance
It’s me 나예요 다를 거 없이
요즘엔 뭔가요 내 gossip
탐색하는 불빛 scanner, scanner
오늘은 몇 점인가요? Jealous, jealous
[Pre-Chorus]
쟤는 대체 왜 저런 옷을 좋아한담?
기분을 알 수 없는 저 표정은 뭐람?
태가 달라진 건 아마 stress 때문인가?
걱정이야 쟤도 참
[Chorus]
Yellow C-A-R-D
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep
매너는 여기까지 it’s mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line
Hello stu-P-I-D
그 선 넘으면 정색이야 beep
Stop it 거리 유지해 cause we don’t know, know, know, know
Comma, we don’t owe, owe, owe, owe
(Anyth-anything)
I don’t care 당신의 비밀이 뭔지
저마다의 사정 역시
정중히 사양할게요 not my business
이대로 좋아요 talk, talk less
Still me 또예요 놀랄 거 없이
I’m sure you’re gonna say “my gosh”
바빠지는 눈빛 check-checking
매일 틀린 그림 찾기 oh hashtagging
[Pre-Chorus]
꼿꼿하게 걷다가 삐끗 넘어질라
다들 수군대는 걸 자긴 아나 몰라
요새 말이 많은 걔랑 어울린다나?
문제야 쟤도 참
[Chorus]
Yellow C-A-R-D
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep
매너는 여기까지 it’s mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line
Hello stu-P-I-D
그 선 넘으면 정색이야 beep
Stop it 거리 유지해 cause we don’t know, know, know, know
Comma, we don’t owe, owe, owe, owe
(Anything)
편하게 하지 뭐
어 거기 너 내 말 알아 들어? 어?
I don’t believe it
에이 아직 모를 걸
내 말 틀려? 또 나만 나뻐? 어?
I don’t believe it
깜빡이 켜 교양이 없어 너 knock, knock, knock, knock
'Nough 더 상대 안 해 block, block, block, block, block
잘 모르겠으면 이젠 좀 외워 babe
Repeat, repeat, 참 쉽지 right
[Chorus]
Yellow C-A-R-D
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep
매너는 여기까지 it’s mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line
Hello stu-P-I-D
그 선 넘으면 정색이야 beep (beep beep)
Stop it 거리 유지해 cause we don’t know, know, know, know
Comma, we don’t owe, owe, owe, owe
(Anyth-anything)
About
IU’s digital single “삐삐 (BBIBBI)” celebrates the singer’s 10th anniversary since her debut.
With a playful, shifting percussions and a soft blend of harmonies, the track is IU’s first song that falls in the alternative R&B genre.
“BBIBBI” is the phonetic sound a bell makes in warning of something crossing some sort of boundary. The lyrics of the song express a pleasant, cheerful message to those who cross the line in personal relationships. In a society where people have little regard for the personal bubble of others, IU writes about the need for respect and privacy in modern society.
On Cafe Daum IU further explains the song:
The song conveys the message of throwing a cheerful and simple warning at those who have crossed the line. More important nowadays than ever, is to not restrict or decide for others based on one’s own standards, but for equal and independent individuals to have healthy ties. The song tells the story of people living in the modern age.
Billboard published an article following the song’s release, saying:
IU is seen emulating a variety of different roles, such as languishing around in high-fashion or dancing around in retro looks, and throwing away newspapers and looking out from a window with binoculars while wearing a Gracy Kelly-style scarf as if she’s peering out for paparazzi. As she sings about not caring about others and saying that it’s “not my business,” she coyly stares down the camera and shows off the different sides to herself.
