NOTES

This is quite possibly the most nonsensical song by The Yellow Monkey that I have ever had the pleasure of translating. I know that Kazuya LOVES putting plays on English words in the Japanese language in his songs, but he has reached new heights in this song! He writes (literally) "Akkan bee shita mama", and the title of the song is "I Can Be Shit Mama". So in this case, I chose to translate this line literally as the song title. Though the Japanese meaning is basically the same as the English meaning. I think this is the way Kazuya meant it, anyway. A great deal of this song seems to be about motivation (or lack thereof), and frustration.

aa shizuka na yoru sa toki no nagare wo kanjiru
supiido no nosete kokoro no kanata made koin hajiku
ura ka omote ka kotae wa hyaku nen ato ni shiru darou
hanikan de ore no atama naderu omae to tanoshimitai

otsuki sama pokkari to nikkori de

deki sugita hanashi wo hito wa ura yamashi garushi
heiki de takai kane de uso wo nan do mo kawasareru shi de

haado de mo nakya sofuto de mo nai
hevii de mo nakya raito de mo nai

akkan bee shita mama
odorimasen ka
akkan bee shita mama
yume wo oimashou
akkan bee shita mama
jidai ni awazu
da kara kiri saku ze supaa supaa supaa

ougon no rokudenashi ooi ni kekkou !! susume !!

kuuru de mo nakya hotto de mo nai
guddo de mo nakya baddo demo nai

akkan bee shita mama
odorimasen ka
akkan bee shita mama
kizukarenai you ni
akkan bee shita mama
jidai wo kette
hokori mamoru ze
