环游了世界 全世界
Traveling around the world, the whole wide world,
却发现美丽没有旗舰店
Yet I find beauty has no flagship store.
谁穿著钉鞋不肯变?
Who wears spiked shoes and refuses to change?
停止了自转 变成一个茧
Stopped spinning, turned into a cocoon,
你我都希望特别 又不敢太过于特别
You and I both long to be special, yet fear being too special.
Yeah
Yeah,
流行是一种安全
Trendy is a kind of safety,
搔著闷骚的太阳穴
Scratching at the restless temple of the sun,
你是花花世界里限量版的花花蝴蝶
You are a limited edition butterfly in this vibrant world,
美女们只是比较豁出去 比较敢一点
The beauties are just a bit more daring, willing to take a chance.
花蝴蝶的美 的艳 的炫 若没三审定谳
The beauty of the butterfly blooms so bright and bold, if there's no final verdict to behold.
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌?
What gives those bystanders the right to speak, turning annoying, so to speak?
快离开冬眠 赶快破茧
Quick, awaken from your slumber, break out of your cocoon under thunder.
别被无聊困在地球表面
Don't let boredom keep you grounded, reach for the skies where dreams are founded.
想灵魂出窍 甩平凡嘴脸
Yearn to elevate your soul, shake off the ordinary with a powerful role.
就自创品牌 靠自己变脸
Create your own brand, let your true self unfold and take a stand.
当你不刻意特别 突然就会变的特别
When you're not trying too hard to stand out, that's when the special comes about.
Yeah
Yeah
只要别越描越黑
Just avoid painting things darker than they are, let your light shine bright like a star.
你的眼睛就会放电
Your eyes will sparkle with electric delight.
你是花花世界里限量版的花花蝴蝶
You are a limited edition butterfly in this vibrant world of flowers.
美女们只是比较豁出去 比较敢一点
The beauties are just a bit bolder, a little more daring.
花蝴蝶的美 的艳 的炫 若没三审定谳
The beauty of the butterfly, so dazzling, so bright, without a final verdict.
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌?
What gives those passersby the right to chime in and be so annoying?
你可以瞬间飞去东京 巴黎 米兰 纽约
You can instantly fly to Tokyo, Paris, Milan, New York.
别让别人嘴里的形容词左右你视野
Don't let the adjectives from others dictate your vision.
如果有人的魅力足够为这世纪代言
If someone's charm is enough to represent this century,
那是她敢站出来变成蝴蝶 飞舞翩翩
It's because she dares to stand out and become a butterfly, fluttering gracefully.
你是花花世界里限量版的花花蝴蝶
You are a limited edition butterfly in this vibrant world of flowers.
美女们只是比较豁出去 比较敢一点
The beauties are just a bit bolder, a little more daring.
花蝴蝶的美 的艳 的炫 若没三审定谳
The beauty of the butterfly flower, so vivid, so dazzling, without final judgment.
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌? (准备惊艳)
What gives those passersby the right to speak, so annoying? (Prepare to be amazed)
你可以身穿花花衣 当限量的花蝴蝶
You can wear colorful clothes, become a limited-edition butterfly flower.
你可以比你想像中再爱现 再敢一点
You can flaunt more than you imagine, dare a little more.
你可以自己决定美的最后三审定谳
You can decide the final judgment of beauty all by yourself.
更可以让路人甲闭嘴惊艳
Even more, you can make those passersby fall silent in amazement.
你是花花世界里限量版的花花蝴蝶
You are a limited-edition butterfly flower in this colorful world.
美女们只是比较豁出去 比较敢一点
The beauties just take more risks, a little bolder.
花蝴蝶的美 的艳 的炫 若没三审定谳
The beauty of the butterfly flower, so vivid, so dazzling, without final judgment.
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌? 准备惊艳
What gives those passersby the right to speak, so annoying? Prepare to be amazed.
