Lyrics[]
Jisoo Jennie Rosé Lisa
BLACKPINK in your area, eh-oh
BLACKPINK in your area, eh-oh
컴백이 아냐 떠난 적 없으니까
고개들이 돌아 진정해 목 꺾일라
분홍빛의 얼음 drip drip drip
freeze ‘em on sight
Shut it down what what what what
게임이 아냐 진 적이 없으니까
짖어봐 네 목에 목줄은 내 거니까
땅바닥에 닿은 pedal we go two zero five
Shut it down uh uh uh uh
초록 비를 내려 머리 위로 Don’t trip, baby
겸손하게 그냥 앉아있어 Just sit, baby
Praying for my downfall,
many have tried, baby
Catch me when you hear
my Lamborghini go
vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom
When we pull up you know it’s a shutdown
간판 내리고 문 잠가 shut down
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
It’s black and it’s pink once the sun down
When we pull up you know it’s a shutdown
간판 내리고 문 잠가 shut down
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
Keep watching me shut it down
Nah

Bunch of wannabes that wanna be me,

Been around the world, pearls on ya girl,
VVS's we invested uh
Need a lesson see the necklace,

We don’t buy it we request it uh
A rockstar, a popstar but rowdier
Say bye to the paparazzi,

Stay in your own lane ‘cause

Catch me when you hear

When we pull up you know it’s a shutdown
간판 내리고 문 잠가 shut down
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
Whip it whip it whip it whip it
It’s black and it’s pink once the sun down

Bark, because the leash on your neck is mine
Pedal to the metal, we go two-zero-five
Shut it down, uh-uh, uh-uh
Make the money rain, don’t trip, baby
Be humble, just sit, baby
Praying for my downfall,

When we pull up you know it’s a shutdown
Pull down the shutter lock the door, shut down

When we pull up, you know it's a shutdown
Pull down the shutter lock the door, shut down
