Note: There’s a Korean slang word, “ship da,” which literally translates to “to chew,” means to talk smack (talk bad) about someone. It can also mean to completely ignore someone, giving them the silent treatment. But for this song, the first meaning is applicable.

It’s chewing time right now
It’s chewing time right now
You’re so bad, I fell for your innocent charm
But you trampled on my heart
I’ve never seen a guy like you before
You said I was the only one
But I knew once you started to hide your cell phone

I’m so sorry but your cell phone is right here
You said you were tired and going to sleep
But you were talking with her on the phone?
Where is my name in your contacts list?
Why am I listed as Director Kim?

It’s chewing time right now
(Because you dumped me, I’ll make your ears itchy)^
It’s chewing time right now
(So that you’ll trip and fall not too far ahead)
You’re so bad (anyone can see)
What’s so bad about me? (I was too good for you)
My friends are mad, now you snap out of it
You will never know
The cruel chewing time of girls, tonight

Every weekend, when you told me to come to your house, I went
I cooked everything that you said you wanted to eat and spread it before you
When I ask you what you’re doing on the weekdays, you answered, “work”
Then when said, “let’s talk on the phone later,” you’re so busy to push it back
What is this? The work you do is to take care of the many fish in your aquarium^^

I’m so sorry but your cell phone is right here
You said you were tired and going to sleep
But you were talking with her on the phone?
Where is my name in your contacts list?
Why am I listed as Director Kim?

It’s chewing time right now
(Because you dumped me, I’ll make your ears itchy)^
It’s chewing time right now
(So that you’ll trip and fall not too far ahead)
You’re so bad (anyone can see)
What’s so bad about me? (I was too good for you)
My friends are mad, now you snap out of it

You probably don’t care how hard it was for me
In my tears, only our memories flow

I will send you off, a bit stronger
I will send you off, a bit stronger
You’re so annoying, totally annoying
I will send you off, a bit stronger

It’s chewing time right now
(Because you dumped me, I’ll make your ears itchy)^
It’s chewing time right now
(So that you’ll trip and fall not too far ahead)
You’re so bad (anyone can see)
What’s so bad about me? (I was too good for you)
My friends are mad, now you snap out of it

Woo Woo Woo Woo
A bit cooler
Woo Woo Woo Woo
A bit cooler
It’s chewing time right now
My friends are mad, now you snap out of it

^ In Korea, there’s a superstitious belief that when your ears are itching, that means someone is talking about you.
