  1. 위선과 가식으로 똘똘뭉친

    Wrapped tight in hypocrisy and pretense

  2. 우리나라 좋은 나라

    Our country, a good country

  3. 인류를 가장한 삼류투성이

    Full of third-rate souls in the guise of humanity

  4. 나도 하나 뭐하나

    I’m one of them, what am I doing?

  5. 진실된 없이

    Without any sincerity, you and me

  6. 사람과 사람 사이마다

    Between every person and person

  7. 높고 두꺼운

    Why is there a tall, thick

  8. 마음의 벽이 서나

    Wall of the heart standing?

  9. 이성에 자연스레 눈뜰 나이에

    At an age where I should naturally open my eyes to reason

  10. 짓밟혀 있다가

    Trampled down and

  11. 뒤늦게 어색하게

    Awkwardly awakening late

  12. 소개킹 미팅 부킹

    Introducing, meeting, booking

  13. 무슨 동서분간 못하는

    What’s with these idiots who can’t tell east from west

  14. 개들 짝짓나 애들 장난하나

    Are dogs pairing up? Is this child’s play?

  15. 삼삼오오 머릿수 맞춰

    Group by group, matching heads

  16. 일렬로 나란히 앉어

    Seated in a straight line

  17. 저마다 잘난 맛에

    Each one basking in their own glory

  18. 맘의 문을 잠궈 놓고

    Locking the door to their hearts

  19. 남이 하면 요행 지가 하면 흥행

    If others do it, it's luck; if I do it, it's fame

  20. 남이 하면 객기 지가 하면 용기

    If others do it, it's bravado; if I do it, it's courage

  21. 이런 너저분한 생각들은

    These messy thoughts

  22. 변기속에 담궈버려 너무 구려

    Should be thrown into the toilet, they’re so foul

  23. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  24. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  25. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  26. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  27. 항상 점잖은 양반들은

    The always genteel gentlemen

  28. 뒤에서는 호박씨

    Behind the scenes, all gossip

  29. 까만 기름진 얼굴은 욕나온다

    Your dark, oily face is disgusting

  30. 이런 발끈하지 말고

    So don’t get all riled up

  31. 움찔하지 말고 똑바로 살아다오

    Don’t flinch, just live straight and true

  32. 어이 형씨 징그러운 그대들은

    Hey dude, you creepy ones

  33. 다름아닌 아저씨

    Are nothing but uncles

  34. 부적절한 발상 인위적인 행동

    Inappropriate thoughts, artificial actions

  35. 반인륜적인 마음가짐

    An inhumane mindset

  36. 속으로 좋아도 겉으로 삿대질하는

    While secretly liking it, pointing fingers outward

  37. 당신들의 알량한 푼에

    For your measly few bucks

  38. 혹하는 철없는 처자들 땜에

    Foolish girls seduced by you

  39. 우리나라 물들어가 병들어가

    Our country is fading, sickening

  40. 진짜 역겹다 저리 꺼져라

    It's truly disgusting, just get lost

  41. 뒤늦게 철들어 흘릴 그들의 눈물

    Their tears spilled when they finally wake up late

  42. 배가 되어 너희 눈에 피눈물

    Turning your eyes into wounds of blood

  43. 지울 없는 인생의 오점을

    The indelible blemishes of life

  44. 그냥 집어 먹는 고기 한점처럼

    Swallowed like a piece of meat

  45. 생각하는 그대는

    You who thinks this way

  46. 진짜 그대로 빵점

    Are literally a total failure

  47. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  48. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  49. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  50. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  51. 언제나 매일밤 바보같이

    Always foolishly every night

  52. 나도 몰래

    Unbeknownst to me

  53. 언제나 매일밤 바보같이

    Always foolishly every night

  54. 나도 몰래

    Unbeknownst to me

  55. 언제나 니가 남보다 잘나서 니가

    Always because you’re better than others, you

  56. 혼자서 니가

    Alone, you

  57. 어떡하면 이익볼까

    How can I profit from this

  58. 고민하는 니가

    You who worries

  59. 남을 위하는

    Why do you seem like you’re doing it for others

  60. 웃고 있는거야

    Smiling away

  61. 약한 자를 짓누르고

    Pressing down the weak

  62. 강한 자와 타협하는 니가

    Compromising with the strong, that’s you

  63. 일등인거야

    The number one

  64. 너의 고집 객기 아집

    Your stubbornness, bravado, closed-mindedness

  65. 배타적인 니가

    Being exclusionary

  66. 양지에선 신사

    In the light, you’re a gentleman

  67. 음지에선 변태였던 니가

    In the dark, you were a pervert

  68. 일등인거야

    The number one

  69. 전통의 일부는

    Part of that tradition

  70. 폐단의 계승인거야

    Is an inheritance of flaws

  71. 멀쩡한

    A sane person

  72. 미친 되는 세상인거야

    In a world where one becomes insane

  73. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  74. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  75. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  76. Why you always wanna be number one

    Why you always wanna be number one

  77. Why you always wanna be

    Why you always wanna be
