NCT WISH “Silly Dance” Lyrics
Hangul
Oh baby dance yeah
I wanna dance oh
Yeah silly dance I just
심장이 너무나 빨라 걸음이 자꾸만 엉켜
박자를 놓친 춤처럼 난 자꾸 Ayo ayo
한눈에 반한 것 같아 잠깐 내 눈은 두 갠데
세상이 어떻게 된 거야
바뀌어 서면 네 앞에만 자꾸 말이 앞뒤가
Let’s jump it all 둘은 모를래 난 하나만 알래
Oh baby dance dance silly dance 뚝딱거려
I wanna dance dance silly dance 고장난 춤처럼
바보가 되어도 좋아 너 밖에 몰라도 좋아
Silly dance I just 네가 웃는 게 좋아
Fill it up spill it out 하얘져 할 말이 많은데
네 앞에만 서면 머린 자꾸 Ayo ayo
Hear the sound getting loud 자꾸 Pop pop pop 터질 듯
심장이 어떻게 된 거야
바뀌어 서면 네 앞에만 자꾸 말이 앞뒤가
난 맹세해 지금부터 난 너 하나만 알게
Oh baby dance dance silly dance 뚝딱거려
I wanna dance dance silly dance 고장난 춤처럼
바보가 되어도 좋아 너 밖에 몰라도 좋아
Silly dance I just 네가 웃는 게 좋아
눈 못 떼게 해 할 말 잃게 해 날 홀리게 해 미소만으로
자꾸 발을 헛디뎌도 말을 더듬어도 네가 웃는 걸 볼 수 있다면 난
Oh baby dance dance silly dance 손을 잡아
I wanna dance dance silly dance 겁날 거 없잖아
바보가 되어도 좋아 솔직한 네가 더 좋아
Silly dance 만약 너도 나와 같다면
Oh baby dance dance silly dance 뚝딱거려
I wanna dance dance silly dance 숨길 수 없잖아
바보가 되어도 좋아 너 밖에 몰라도 좋아
Silly dance I just 네가 웃는 게 좋아
Fill it up spill it out 하얘져 할 말이 많은데
Oh baby dance I wanna dance Oh baby silly dance
Hear the sound getting loud 자꾸 Pop pop pop 터질 듯
Silly dance I just 네가 웃는 게 좋아
Silly dance I just 좋아

Translation
Oh baby dance yeah
I wanna dance oh
Yeah silly dance I just
My heart is beating way too fast, my footsteps keep getting tangled up
Like a dance that completely missed the beat, I keep going Ayo ayo
I think I fell in love at first sight; hold on, I only have two eyes,
So what on earth happened to the entire world?
Whenever I switch places and stand right in front of you, my words keep getting mixed up backward
Let’s jump it all, I don’t care to know about two things—I only want to know one
Oh baby dance dance silly dance, I’m buffering and acting clumsy
I wanna dance dance silly dance, just like a broken, malfunctioning dance
It’s completely fine if I become a fool, it’s fine if I know absolutely no one but you
Silly dance I just love it when you smile
Fill it up spill it out, my mind goes stark white even though I have so much to say
Whenever I stand right in front of you, my head keeps going Ayo ayo
Hear the sound getting loud, keeping on going Pop pop pop as if it’s about to explode
What on earth happened to my heart?
Whenever I switch places and stand right in front of you, my words keep getting mixed up backward
I swear, from this exact moment on, I will only ever care to know you
Oh baby dance dance silly dance, I’m buffering and acting clumsy
I wanna dance dance silly dance, just like a broken, malfunctioning dance
It’s completely fine if I become a fool, it’s fine if I know absolutely no one but you
Silly dance I just love it when you smile
You make it impossible to take my eyes away, you make me lose my words, you bewitch me with just a single smile
Even if I keep losing my footing, even if I stutter my words, as long as I can see you laugh, I’ll—
Oh baby dance dance silly dance, take my hand
I wanna dance dance silly dance, there’s absolutely nothing to be afraid of
It’s completely fine if I become a fool, I like the honest version of you even better
Silly dance, if by some chance you feel the exact same way I do
Oh baby dance dance silly dance, I’m buffering and acting clumsy
I wanna dance dance silly dance, since there’s no way I can hide it anyway
It’s completely fine if I become a fool, it’s fine if I know absolutely no one but you
Silly dance I just love it when you smile
Fill it up spill it out, my mind goes stark white even though I have so much to say
Oh baby dance I wanna dance Oh baby silly dance
Hear the sound getting loud, keeping on going Pop pop pop as if it’s about to explode
Silly dance I just love it when you smile
Silly dance I just love it
