Hi there 인사해, 호들갑 없이
시작해요 서론 없이
스킨십은 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

쟤는 대체 왜 저런 옷을 좋아한담?
기분을 알 수 없는 저 표정은 뭐람?
태가 달라진 건 아마 stress 때문인가?
걱정이야, 쟤도 참

Yellow C-A-R-D (oh-oh)
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep (oh-oh)
매너는 여기까지 it's mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line

Hello, stu-P-I-D (oh-oh)
그 선 넘으면 정색이야 beep (oh-oh)
Stop it 거리 유지해
'Cause we don't know, know, know, know
Comma, we don't owe, owe, owe, owe (anyth-anything)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, oh, oh
I don't care 당신의 비밀이 뭔지
저마다의 사정 역시
정중히 사양할게요
Not my business
이대로 좋아요
Talk, talk less

Still me 또 예요, 놀랄 거 없이
I'm sure you're gonna say "My gosh"
바빠지는 눈빛 check-checking
매일 틀린 그림 찾기 oh, hashtagging

꼿꼿하게 걷다가 삐끗 넘어질라
다들 수군대는 걸 자긴 아나 몰라?
요새 말이 많은 걔랑 어울린다나?
문제야, 쟤도 참

Yellow C-A-R-D (oh-oh)
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep (oh-oh)
매너는 여기까지 it's mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line

Hello, stu-P-I-D (oh-oh)
그 선 넘으면 정색이야 beep (oh-oh)
Stop it 거리 유지해
'Cause we don't know, know, know, know
Comma, we don't owe, owe, owe, owe (anyth-anything)

편하게 하지 뭐
어, 거기 너, 말 알아들어? (어?)
I don't believe it
에이, 아직 모를 걸
내 말 틀려? 또 나만 나뻐? (어? 어?)
I don't believe it

깜빡이 켜, 교양이 없어 너
Knock, knock, knock, knock, enough
더 상대 안 해 block, block, block, block
잘 모르겠으면 이젠 좀 외워 babe
Repeat, repeat
참 쉽지 right?

Yellow C-A-R-D (bbi, bbi, bbi)
이 선 넘으면 침범이야 beep (beep, beep)
매너는 여기까지 it's mi-mi-mi-mine
Please keep the li-li-li-line

Hello, stu-P-I-D (bbi, bbi, bbi)

Overall Meaning

BBIBBI is a song by South Korean singer IU, released in October 2018. The opening line of the lyrics, "Hi there, 인사해 호들갑 없이" (Hi there, greetings without any awkwardness), immediately sets the tone for the song's overall message about casual relationships - whether romantic or platonic - and boundaries. IU sings about her personal boundaries and her commitment to maintaining her individuality in relationships. She emphasizes the importance of respecting her space and privacy, declaring that she does not want any physical touch unless she consents to it ("스킨십은 사양할게요"). She also states that she does not want to be involved in gossip or the drama of other people's lives ("요즘엔 뭔가요 내 gossip").


IU further emphasizes the theme of boundaries with the repeated lyrics "Yellow C.A.R.D." and "Hello stupi I.D." The former refers to giving someone a warning before crossing a line, much like a yellow card in soccer. The latter is a playful insult, hinting that someone is acting stupidly and that they need to course correct before further interaction. IU's overall message in the song is to be respectful to one another and to give each other space and privacy in order to maintain happy, functional relationships.

@royal-_-team

걱정하는듯한 교묘한 말투로 돌려까는 사람들을 저격한 노래 개인적으로 아주 마음에 들었어요 아이유는 노래에 주제나 가사에대해 이해력이 뛰어나 그런지 표현력도 상당하네요.
