歌詞

アンタが去ってあれからずっと
この街雨続きだ
ノックをやめない狗頭のベルボーイ
仏陀の香草 巡る抗争
雌キメラ解体ショウ
eat it it it it it it eat it
eat it it it it it it eat it up

幸・不幸 福を乞う不幸
なんもかんも運命だろう

あれは”グッド”・バイ
なんかじゃなかったんだよ
あんたのヒール履いて暮らす獣性
いつもの闇医者ヤブが嗤って云った
「お大事にどうぞ」

Translation

Since you left, the rain has kept falling
here in this neighbourhood.
The dog-headed bellboy won’t stop knocking.
There’s a dispute over Buddha’s herb
and there’s a show where the lady chimera is split up.
Eat it it it it it it eat it.
Eat it it it it it it eat it up.

Good fortune, misfortune, and the unfortunate asking for good fortune—
It’s all up to fate in the end.

That’s a “good”-bye,
but that’s not what it was at all.
An animal’s nature lives while wearing your heels.
The usual back-alley doctor sneered and said:
“Take care…”
Che che che che che check out.
Che che che che check out.

Rave up, rave up and dance.
Dance as a farewell.
I’m howling, so hey, answer me.
Are you there?
Wow, wow.
A cute, cute illusion.
See you soon. One day,
maybe I’ll even forget your smell, your voice, and your face too.
Oh, oh…

I can’t catch up with the spinning roundabout!
Can you just leave me alone?
I listen to my headphones.
Rut, rut, rut.

Eyepatch. Subhuman. Feng sui electric motor.
Who’s crying?
Everything’s emptying out once more, isn’t it?
→check out
Again, I can’t sleep.

Rave up. Rave up. I sing.
I sing my farewells.
A message was hidden in my empty dress.
Notice it!
Wow, wow.
Rainy. Rainy. Don’t go.
Don’t vanish, please.
I cast away my unopened umbrella, which remains a bud.
Oh, oh.

The roundabout won’t stop yet.
It loops and leaps around the same place.
The essential parts are all garbled.
Rut, rut, rut.

Theoretical Kowloon. Aerial Shenlong.
The feeling of loving someone is UNKNOWN.
Kowloon, built on sand. Untrodden Kunlun,
hidden away on the top floor.

Outsider. I’m “emptying” out once more, aren’t I?
Up side down. I’ll become a dragon once more, won’t I?

Rave up, rave up and dance.
Dance as a farewell.
I’m howling, so hey, answer me.
Are you there?
Wow, wow.
A cute, cute illusion.
See you soon. One day,
Maybe I’ll even forget your smell, your voice, and your face too.
Oh, oh…

I can’t catch up with the spinning roundabout!
Can you just leave me alone?
I listen to my headphones.
A gunshot rings out during the credits
and I wander in the lobby again.
Rut, rut, rut, rut, rut, rut, rut.

    Hello Releska, I just wanted to ask if 「繝ゥ繝�」 has any meaning. I looked around but couldn’t find anything that would apply to the song (except when I google-translated it, it was translated to “hotel” which is pretty cool)

    Thank you! Hope you have a nice day

      Unfortunately I can’t provide any firm answers on that 😦 The kanji 繝 by itself seems to refer to a ‘brocade pattern’, and is pronounced ‘kan’ or ‘ken’. Perhaps it’s not intended to mean anything and is meant to indicate some form of corruption (with �)…?

        I see. You’re right, maybe it’s something to emphasise the previous line, to indicate “error” of some sorts. Thank you!
