The girl group encourages us to lift our heads high and embrace our personalities fearlessly. Here, IVE sings “Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba” as an emphasis for the theme of independence.

IVE – Baddie (English Translation) Lyrics
[Intro]
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)[Chorus: Leeseo, Gaeul]
I’m a baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
Pretty little risky baddie
Whatever happens, happens
Catch me if you can
Baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
I’m already not there anymore
You can’t find me anyway, but
Catch me if you can[Verse 1: Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Rei]
Nothing like the regulars
Blue blood runs in my DNA
Tell me more honestly
Don’t fake being nice
The rules don’t matter, they don’t apply to us
Trends come back around but I’m already ahead
I wanna break, I wanna kick, I wanna have fun and be loud
With my diverse charms and irregularities, shining more brightly[Pre-Chorus: An Yujin]
Break free from everything that’s frustrating
No need to put your head down
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)[Chorus: Jang Wonyoung, An Yujin]
I’m a baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
Pretty little risky baddie
Whatever happens, happens
Catch me if you can
Baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
I’m already not there anymore
You can’t find me anyway, but
Catch me if you can[Refrain: Leeseo]
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na[Verse 2: Rei, Gaeul]
And the fit pop like bubblegum
I trust my judgement
So much to say really
Don’t censor just spit it out
I like that it’s troublesome
Nobody, you can’t bite me
If you want to come try me
You’re invited anytime[Pre-Chorus: Jang Wonyoung]
In this thriller, I’m the villain
Don’t think, just do is my motto[Chorus: Liz, An Yujin, Jang Wonyoung, Leeseo]
I’m a baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
Pretty little risky baddie
Whatever happens, happens
Catch me if you can
Baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
Move out of the way
If you block me, I’ll fly up, so
Catch me if you can
I’m a baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
Where are you going so busily
Whatever happens, happens
Catch me if you can
Baddie, ba-ba-baddie, baddie
I’m already not there anymore
You can’t find me anyway, but
Catch me if you can (Bad)[Interlude: Rei]
Uh-huh
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baddie[Refrain: Liz]
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na[Chorus: Rei, Jang Wonyoung]
