Lyrics
Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, Tzuyu
매일 울리는 bell, bell, bell
이젠 나를 배려
해줘 battery 낭비하긴 싫어
자꾸만 봐, 자꾸-자꾸만 와
전화가 펑 터질 것만 같아
몰라 몰라 숨도 못 쉰대
나 때문에 힘들어 (쿵)
심장이 떨어진대 왜?
걔 말은 나 너무 예쁘대
자랑 하는건 아니구
Ooh, 아까는 못 받아서 미안해
친구를 만나느라 shy, shy, shy
만나긴 좀 그렇구 미안해
좀 있다 연락할게 later
조르지마, 얼마 가지 않아
부르게 해줄게 baby
아직은 좀 일러, 내 맘 같긴 일러
하지만 더 보여줄래
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, 좀 더 힘을 내
여자가 쉽게 맘을 주면 안돼
그래야 니가 날 더 좋아하게 될걸
태연하게 연기할래 아무렇지 않게
내가 널 좋아하는 맘 모르게
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
(I need you)
안절부절 목소리가 여기까지 들려 (oh oh)
땀에 젖은 전화기가 여기서도 보여
바로 바로 대답하는 것도 매력 없어 (oh oh)
메시지만 읽고 확인 안 하는 건 기본
어어어, 너무 심했나 boy
이러다가 지칠까 봐 걱정되긴 하고
어어어, 안 그러면 내가 더
빠질 것만 같어, 빠질 것만 같어
Oh whoa, 답장을 못해줘서 미안해
친구를 만나느라 shy, shy, shy
만나긴 좀 그렇구 미안해
좀 있다 연락할게 later
조르지마, 어디 가지 않아
되어줄게 너의 baby
너무 빨린 싫어, 성의를 더 보여
내가 널 기다려줄게
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, 좀 더 힘을 내
여자가 쉽게 맘을 주면 안돼
그래야 니가 날 더 좋아하게 될걸
태연하게 연기할래 아무렇지 않게
내가 널 좋아하는 맘 모르게
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
나도 니가 좋아, 상처 입을까 봐
걱정되지만 여자니까 이해해주길
속 마음 들킬 까봐 겁이나
지금처럼 조금만 더 다가와
그리 오래 걸리진 않아
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
Be a man, a real man
Gotta see you love me like a real man
Be a man, a real man
Gotta see you love me like a real man
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, 좀 더 힘을 내 (cheer up!)
여자가 쉽게 맘을 주면 안돼
그래야 니가 날 더 좋아하게 될걸
태연하게 연기할래 아무렇지 않게
내가 널 좋아하는 맘 모르게 (맘 모르게, yeah)
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!

Every day it rings, the bell, bell, bell
Now care for me
I don't wanna waste my battery
I keep looking, it keeps, it keeps coming
Like my phone's gonna explode
I don't know, I don't know, he says he can't even breathe
He says he's struggling because of me
He says his heart is dropping, why?
He says that I'm so pretty
Not that I'm showing off or anything
Ooh, I couldn't pick up earlier, sorry
I was meeting my friends, shy, shy, shy
I can't really meet you right now, sorry
I'll call you a little later
Don't beg, then you won't last long
I'll let you call me baby
It's still a little too early for my heart to feel the same
But I'll show you more
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, cheer up a little more
A girl can't give her heart too easily
That's how you'll get to like me even more
I'll act calm, as if it's nothing
So you won't know that I like you
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
(I need you)
I can hear the anxiety in your voice (oh oh)
I can see the sweat forming on your phone
It's not attractive to answer right away (oh oh)
Reading your text and not responding is a right
Oh oh oh, oops, was I too harsh boy?
I'm worried that you'll get tired
Oh oh oh, But if not, I think I'll fall for you
I'll fall for you even more, I'll fall for you even more
Oh whoa, I could not respond, sorry
I was meeting my friends, shy, shy, shy
I can't really meet you right now, sorry
I'll call you a little later
Don't beg, I'm not going anywhere
I'll be your baby
But not too fast, show me you mean it
I'll wait for you
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, cheer up a little more
A girl can't give her heart too easily
That's how you'll get to like me even more
I'll act calm, as if it's nothing
So you won't know that I like you
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
I like you too, I'm just worried I'll get hurt
I hope you understand 'cause I'm a girl
I'm scared that you'll find out how I feel
Come to me little by little, just like now
I promise it won't take that long
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
Be a man, a real man
Gotta see you love me like a real man
Be a man, a real man
Gotta see you love me like a real man
Cheer up baby, cheer up baby, cheer up a little more (cheer up!)
A girl can't give her heart too easily
That's how you'll get to like me even more
I'll act calm, as if it's nothing
So you won't know that I like you (I like you, yeah)
Just get it together, and then baby cheer up!
