BIBI “Scott and Zelda” Lyrics

Hangul

The way you write
Oh, my God, your hand writing
책방 오빠, 오늘 끝나고 뭐 하나?
나는 편지지 하나 사러 왔는데
벌써 마음만은 Jane Austin
이에요 oh, shit

몰래몰래 너를 볼래
사이사이 널 따라갈래
난 네 종이, 넌 내 연필
나를 한번 펼쳐봐 줄래?

침 묻혀줄래, 꼬집어줄래?
날 넘겨줄래, 읽어봐 줄래, 갈피를 꽂아줄래?
반납했다 영영 놓치지 말고, 날 데려가 줄래?
밑줄 쳐줄래, 맘껏 접어줄래, 날 연체해줄래?

The way you read
Oh, my God, those paper cut
책방 오빠, 오늘 밤에 뭘 하나?
우린 입맞춤 한번 딱 한 번 했는데
벌써 마음만은 Scott and Zelda
이에요 oh, crazy

몰래몰래 너를 볼래
사이사이 널 따라갈래
난 네 종이, 넌 내 연필
나를 한번 펼쳐봐 줄래?

침 묻혀줄래, 꼬집어줄래?
날 넘겨줄래, 읽어봐 줄래, 갈피를 꽂아줄래?
반납했다 영영 놓치지 말고, 날 데려가 줄래?
밑줄 쳐줄래, 맘껏 접어줄래, 나를 기억해 줄래?

Translation

The way you write
Oh, my God, your handwriting
Bookstore oppa, what are you doing after work today?
I just came here to buy a single piece of stationery,
But my heart is already Jane Austen
Itself, oh, shit

Secretly, stealthily, I want to watch you
Following right behind you through the spaces between the aisles
I am your paper, and you are my pencil
Won’t you try flipping me open just once?

Won’t you wet your thumb for me? Won’t you pinch the corners?
Won’t you turn my pages? Won’t you read me? Won’t you place a bookmark in me?
Don’t return me and end up losing me forever—won’t you just take me home with you?
Won’t you underline me? Won’t you fold my pages as much as you want? Won’t you keep me overdue?
The way you read
Oh, my God, those paper cuts
Bookstore oppa, what are you up to tonight?
We only shared a kiss just one single time
But my heart is already Scott and Zelda
Themselves, oh, crazy

Secretly, stealthily, I want to watch you
Following right behind you through the spaces between the aisles
I am your paper, and you are my pencil

Won’t you try flipping me open just once?
Won’t you wet your thumb for me? Won’t you pinch the corners?
Won’t you turn my pages? Won’t you read me? Won’t you place a bookmark in me?
Don’t return me and end up losing me forever won’t you just take me home with you?
Won’t you underline me? Won’t you fold my pages as much as you want? Won’t you remember me?
