Written by G-Dragon, Teddy 
Composed by Teddy, G-Dragon
Produced by Teddy

Get your crayon Get your crayon 
Head, shoulders, knees, feet.
swag check swag check
Head, shoulders, knees, feet.
swag check swag check

I'm not yet flawed. yes I’m a pretty boy.
I fly so fly Narlalee boy
I'm busy from Monday to Sunday. This Oppa is bad. Baaaad boy
I’m a G to the D Gold N Gold and Diamond boy
As you know. U know I beez that
Today's DJ, I'm Chulyi, you are Miae 
Excuse me, Miss...Miss, I'm an innocent Jiyong.
Come here cutie, your boy friend is Jimotmee.
You are so close to my ideal type. so give me some
Kim Tae Hee, Kim Hee Sun, oh my god Jun Ji Hyun. 

Why so serious?
Get your crayon Get your crayon Get your cray Get your crayon
Get your crayon Get your crayon Get your cray Get your
Why so serious?
Come on girls Come on boys Come on come on Get your crayon crayon Come on girls Come on
boys Come on come on Get your crayon crayon
Head, shoulders, knees, feet. swag

My credit card is black it has no limitation.
My song is crack, infinite orbit. Turn things around completely.
I'm a source of good sense for someone always drivel on. 
I'm a rugged guy, not nervous in front of snubs.
Without prejudice, everybody, crayon.
Without discrimination whether you are a winner or a loser, crayon. 


One, two, three, four. Back and forth, spin around.
Calmly, slow it down. Run faster if you get bored. 
Clap your hands, Seoul, Daejun, Daegoo, Busan. Sing and dance together happily.
Ling-ga, ling-ga switch your partners. Head, shoulders, knees, feet. Shake your body. Rock

Why so serious?
Come on girls Come on boys Come on come on Get your crayon crayon x2
Get your crayon crayon 
Come on girls Come on boys Come on Come on Come on Come on x2  
Head, shoulders, knees, feet swag

________________________________________
'Without You (결국)' & 'Today' Lyrics are on the way.  
Ji-mot-mi 지못미
지(ji)켜주지  못(mot)해서  미(mi)안해.
I’m sorry I couldn’t  protect/take care of/defend you. 
In the lyrics, it says "your boy friend is 'jimotmi'" that means, "your boy friend can't take care of you, so break up with him."
Applied1 If GD is blamed unfairly by public. You can say, "GD, 'Jimotmi'" – I'm sorry I couldn't protect you from the blame.
Applied2. If your friend put an old fashioned clothes or had bad hair something like that. You can say, "Oh, Jimotmi!" – Oh my god, I'm so sorry, I wasn't there to stop you. Friends don't let friends dress up like that. 

Narlali 날라   
Its common definition is a person who is somewhat eccentric, frivolous, superficial, or pursuing self-indulging life style. And often their attitude, appearance and values misfit to the community where he/she belongs to. Sometimes they don’t follow or even break rules, but usually nothing serious or harmful. Generally speaking, their behaviors are judged & condemned by custom measures or just scolded by, say, their parents, not by law.
[e.g.] A person who doesn’t work hard, skip classes, pay too much attention to their appearance rather than fulfilling their duty, play around too much instead of spending their time for more productive activities, not solemn and diligent for their responsibility so on.
But also
'Narlali' can be interpreted as a defiant challenger whose unique & outstanding looks and far from conventional or submissive manners that might be displease the established group of people or older generation.  So he/she can be seen as a ‘Narlali,' by the eyes of those conservative people. Additionally, 'NarlDa' 다 means 'fly', so he plays word in his lyrics, obviously.

    1. They are actresses, not idol girls, and two of them except Kim Tae Hee are married. I can't say who is the most beautiful woman in Korea. But, they are definitely beautiful and beloved actresses. Thank you.
