Appasayo

(アルバム： Strange Fiction - 2019)

[Romanized:]

[*clears throat*]
Excuse me a moment of unfiltered honesty
Musical modern-day Mukashibanashi
Flawlessly written entirely in grievance
The privileged millennial's pledge of allegiance
Needless to say, no matter what way you spin it
The earth is a circus, the cynics got tickets
Still thirsty, but firstly, well-versed in satirics
Half-assedly bring out haphazardous lyrics

To add to the list of suspicions dismissed:
Those words I just twisted? They do not exist
Call me out, but at least I'm consistent
The gist of it's everyone's whining and nobody listens
Collective society's "woe is me" attitude
Go and see why that mentality's bad for you
This day and age we're so mentally weak
"Conversations" just waiting for my turn to speak
(Ugh, here we go)

The art of objection: a musician's device
What a shame that admission is so overpriced
But the spice is in crisis and tragedy
Glad to be feeding off mutuals' misery in majesty
Ravish the masses with views they can rate
And relate to the fact that I'm so unrelatable
Thoughts so insatiable
Jealous? Debatable
Kinpatsu hito ga six times more the hateable

At least I complain through refrains and then share it
"I promise I'm making new music, I swear it!"
Imagine how tragic: "I'm sorry, your name is?"
You're thinking "At this rate, I'll never be famous"
Complain like it changes the outcome fundamentally
Half the time nothing turns out how it's meant to be
Rich and the poor both suffer existentially
Who's keeping score? We all kick it eventually

How 'bout a taste of karuma?
They say "Naru yō ni naru-sa"
We still call it wicked, despicable, cursed and unfair
When the universe winds up unkind to us
Keep on whining it's fine because
We're hoping to God somebody might care
Living merrily, wearily, oh-so-contrarily
Life is but a nightmare

Night after night, toss and turn contemplating mortality
Appasayo! -type personality
Logical fallacies, famine and war
But what's this? An unsettling knock at my door

NHK man speaks English, not this shit again
Gomen'nasai terebi arimasen!
Shut the door on the face of the law, I'm above it
Then reap all the benefits
God, do I love it!

I might get deported, so put a brave face on
"Nē, miji ~yoka gaikoku onēsan"
Switch to nihongo in front of my eyes
Talk shit like I can't understand you, surprise!

Back to bitching and crying
We're all friends with that kid
"Not all of us chose to be born so attractive
I always get hit on, like, what should I do?"
Well, good golly gee, don't it suck to be you?
