Story behind the song

This is the "hidden track" for the album. Often, when I am composing music for a song for which Eshinee will later create "real" lyrics, I have an idea about the contour of the melody and rhyme scheme. Sometimes, I record a quick vocal track to convey this idea to the lyricist. In this case, the words were completely improvised and utterly ridiculous. Eshinee, though, wrote down my lyrics and tried to sing them with a straight face. She failed utterly. Maybe this is one of those songs which amuses us more than anyone else. But anyway, it's just a bonus track.
