Oomori Seiko: GIRL'S GIRL (English Lyrics)

クソカワPARTY



Hello! I'm taking a break from some professional-ish translating... With more translating 💘
But this time it's of my a n g e l, Oomori Seiko.

KUSO KAWA PARTY is my favourite album of the year so far -- I seriously recommend it if you're into cute, girly, yet angry music.

Note: Sliiiightly nsfw?





GIRL'S GIRL - 大森靖子 


Japanese lyrics: https://ilyricsbuzz.com/2018/07/seiko-oomori-girls-girl.html


"If life isn't cute, then is it even worth living?"
"That's coming from you? Ugly."
"Tch."

When will I be complete?
For now, I'll just deceive myself.

Even though I want to love, work,
drink tea and take selfies with my finished self.

It's not like I want to be chosen by somebody;
I want to be chosen by myself.

There's no use in being generically cute or whatever,
I want to become overwhelmingly cute.

I can't walk DOWNTOWN
I can't have any DOWNTIME

SEX Don't be on edge, BOY
PLASTIC SURGERY,  pointing at that GIRL

2 months. I can't do Romance.
I can't return to who I once was.
I want to love the world,
But first I want to love myself.

"Kawaii" is a force that I was beaten by, 
Taking a closer look, it was all made with force.
This cuteness can't be peeled away. 
Nobody can peel it away.

GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.

You guys don't get it at all.

Even that girl, who looks totally different in her selfies,
Adding big eye bags out of habit.
The models giggling "Tehepero"
They're just fighting, what's wrong with that?

Denying the desire for others' approval, we're just protecting your peace.
I aknowledge that I want my own approval, what's wrong with that?


DOWNTOWN  Racing through
TIME WORK  Coping GIRL
Don't hold back, start a new era.

Whats wrong with parenting in a cute way?
Even if a girl has a child, do you think she'll become the existence known as "Mother?"
Which is the ADULT BABY?

My cuteness and a child's cuteness,
Respecting them individually, what's wrong with that?
The virtue of "sacrificing everything" needs to end now.
I want to live in a cute way.

GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.
It's not like I want you to understand,
But it's not like I don't want you to understand either.

GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the best!
GIRL’S GIRL  Being a girl is the worst.
You guys don't get it at all.

  1. Kusokawa Party was my Album of the Decade (and I'm essentially a metal guy!). A straight-up masterpiece. I got to see the Morioka stop on the 47-prefecture tour in 2019 (the night before the big typhoon hit!). Unforgettable...
