Here's What The Lyrics To Psy's 'Gentleman M/V' Actually Mean In English

Psy Gentleman M/V video

Official PSY

Psy's "Gentleman M/V."

By now you've enjoyed "Gentleman M/V," Psy's followup to his massive hit, "Gangnam Style."

And you've probably also been completely baffled by the video and the lyrics (if you don't speak Korean). The video appears to show Psy playing tricks on women he's dating, until he meets a woman who is as tricky as he is.

Except, that's not what the song is about.

Here, courtesy of PolicyMic, are the lyrics in phonetic Korean and, below that, in English. The good news is, what sounds like Psy repeatedly singing a curse word is, in fact, something else entirely.

First, the video, then the words:
