The pun is mightier than - well, anyway...

Here's a complicated little knot of wordplay. In two languages.

G-Dragon's latest single is called "Crayon". The refrain is "Get your cray on". So first you need to know that "cray" is slang for "crazy"; he's singing about partying.

G-Dragon's stage name is itself a piece of wordplay: his real name is 권지용 Kwon Ji-yong, and 용 Yong is Korean for dragon. Geddit?

The lyrics of the song are a mix of Korean and English, not at all unusual in Kpop. When I looked them up, though, I was puzzled by the Korean version of the title: 크레용. That doesn't spell out "crayon", it spells out "crayong".

And then I got it. Cray Yong. *facepalm*

I showed my girls this photo. They were very excited. TOP, huh? Good Lord, they're still giggling. And oh yeah, they explained to me about the play on words, it would appear that many of G-Dragon's songs are about him.
