Pizzicato Five | Rock ‘n’ Roll

cation,
if on
ly I
could take one

well, I’m going now
with just one bag
so, southward
the car goes flying
towards a place where nobody knows anything about me

old re
cords and
clothes, all
of them thrown out
well, I’m going soon
just by myself
as far as the seaside
the car goes flying
On the old beat-up radio
rock ‘n’ roll rings out

you’ll never know anywhere that I go

well, I’m going soon
with just one bag
Two days and two nights,
for lunch
I’m fine with just a sandwich

you’ll never know anywhere that I go

a lo

cation,
if real
ly I
could take one

well, I’m going now
just by myself
so, to wherever
the car goes flying
The old beat-up radio
is just like rock ‘n’ roll

you’ll never know who I’m living with

Pizzicato Five | Sweet Soul Revue


◎ This morning, for the first time, I looked into the mirror/and felt attached/to you, falling in love/with you, falling in love [whoa, whoa]
◎ Doing my eyes, where am I going?/Yes, I’m going to see you
Baby, the street’s always a parade/Baby, why not follow along
◎ The world is sweet and/full of catchy things, yeah
I wanna hug them, to feel happy/smile and press my cheek to them, don’t you?
◎ Hey! The revue is starting/Hey! Don’t be late, ok?/Hey! The revue is starting/Don’t forget, ok?*
◎ Maybe today, you’ll look at me/you should notice/you’re also falling in love/with me, falling in love
[whoa, whoa]
◎ Watching TV, an old-timey movie/a musical, just like this revue, right?
Baby, the street’s always a parade/Baby, listen, you can hear it, can’t you?
◎ The world is happy and/full of lucky things, yeah
I wanna kiss them and feel happy/smile and press my cheek to them, don’t you?
[*chorus]
[a new sterophonic sound spectacular]
◎ The world is sweet and/full of catchy things, should be
[oh] God, how can you rain on our parade? Please don’t
In a world with no happy and lucky things/with you I feel happy/wanna smile and press my cheek to you, don’t you/wanna smile and press your cheek to me %

Pizzicato Five | La Guerre est Finie

The sound of the telephone
I listened until it stopped
opened my eyes
past 2 in the afternoon
it was raining

fucked up hair
fucked up letter
last night I wrote it
then tore it up

Last night’s wine and
whisky glasses
cigarette butts overflowing
the ashtray and around it
the cat walks

Why is the war
not over, I wonder
Why is the war
not going away, I wonder

The day of a hangover
I don’t need music
whatever I hear
becomes the thing I hate

stacks of mail
opened it and threw it out
drank some tea
the afternoon was over

Last night I made a phone call
to a new lover
thinking of you
night came and I was only
still waiting

And today the war
isn’t over, I guess
Maybe the war
might never go away

Why is the war
not over, I wonder
Why is the war
not going away, I wonder

Only rich people
go to the place
for dinner
I was invited to

Last night I wore clothes
I won’t wear again
I’ll get new clothes
put them on and go out:
“Becoming a rich person,
how does it feel?”
the rich people,
my friends—
I’ll ask them what they think.

Maybe the war
won’t ever end
Maybe the war
might never go away

How many times we want to meet again
Sweets…a strange thing! Sweets…a strange thing!

Morning Musume. | WHY

Beautiful stars,
how many are there?
Beautiful voices,
like your singing.
Gentle breeze,
where does it go?
Gentle heart,
like your character.

Our lips meeting,
already, how many looks. Ah Ha Ha

As people, why do we cry,
As people, why are we lonely,
As people, why do we love,
As people, eventually, where do we go? Uh

Beautiful forest,
the birds, what about them?
Beautiful dream,
a dream you made.

Could our lips meet again
if our eyes are closed? Ah Ha Ha

As people, having fun,
As people, smiling,
As people, in love,
As people, forever, what… Uh

As people, why do we cry,
As people, why are we lonely,
As people, why do we love,
As people, la la la

As people, having fun,
As people, smiling,
As people, in love,
As people, forever, what… Uh
