TOKYO BACKDOOR BOUNCE
Welcome to Tokyo. Every exit is clearly marked. まもなく、終点です。 お忘れ物にご注意ください。 모든 출구는 안전합니다. Please follow the light. Which light? Ah! TOKYO—BOUNCE! Glass so clean, you miss the glass Tap that gate, let the good girls pass White line straight, every curb in place Whole city wearing a customer-service face 白線きっちり 歩道もすっきり 防犯カメラが一度だけウィンク コンビニ lighting, midnight blue 買ってないレシート says “WE SAW YOU” Who’s “we”? 知らなーい Pretty little city with a polished little grin No obvious danger, so you let the danger in 택시 불빛, 반짝반짝 clean 근데 유리 속의 나는 seventeen You’re twenty-two. Exactly. Weird. (Uh!) (Check twice!) (That ain’t right!) Map says “You have arrived” 現実には番地がない Pin is blue, my screen is bright But my shadow took a left at the previous light エレベーター B3まで なのに液晶 B4, babe 開く 閉じる 開く 誰? 乗ったの五人――降りたの六人? Wait! Count again. 문은 없어 틈은 있어 光はある 影もある If every exit has a number— WHY’S THIS ONE GOT NONE? TOKYO GOT A BACK DOOR (HEY!) きれいな夜の trapdoor (WHERE?) 빛이 세면 그림자도 짙어 (DARK!) 足もとで knock-knock-knock (KNOCK! KNOCK!) No fangs, no claws, no folklore (NO GHOSTS!) Just one clean unmarked door (THAT DOOR!) 地図は says, “You have arrived” でも住所は nowhere, nowhere Who saw it? (WE DID!) 누가 불러? (몰라!) どこへ行く? (BELOW!) TOKYO BACKDOOR— BOUNCE! BOUNCE! BOUNCE! Back-back-backdoor Bounce-bounce-bounce more きれい きれい 気をつけな 예쁜 밤일수록 조심해라 Platform one, platform two Three and four—but the speaker says “zero” 終電後の発車ベル 誰もいないのに “Stand clear, doors close” 黄色い点字ブロックの端 一枚だけ脈を打つ tap-tap 靴底から上がる vibration 地下じゃない地下へ invitation Free admission? 帰りは有料。 How much? Your name. (Ooh!) (No refund!) (Next!) Coin-locker click with no coin inside 広告のモデルが目だけ slide Smile for the camera, pose real cute Flash came back with an extra silhouette 아무도 못 봤대 모두 찍고 있는데 삭제해도 남아 있네 내 사진 뒤에 검은 계단 하나 Swipe left, swipe right, zoom that frame 階段の下に私の name 落書きじゃない 傷でもない 昨日の筆跡――書いた覚えない Cute. Cursed? No. Worse. What? Accurate. 出口は右 矢印は左 뒤돌아보지 마 But look behind me If the city knows where everyone goes— WHO’S WALKING OFF THE MAP? TOKYO GOT A BACK DOOR (HEY!) きれいな夜の trapdoor (WHERE?) 빛이 세면 그림자도 짙어 (DARK!) 足もとで knock-knock-knock (KNOCK! KNOCK!) No fangs, no claws, no folklore (NO GHOSTS!) Just one clean unmarked door (THAT DOOR!) 改札 says, “Have a nice night” その向こうは nowhere, nowhere Who saw it? (WE DID!) 누가 불러? (몰라!) どこへ行く? (BELOW!) TOKYO BACKDOOR— BOUNCE! BOUNCE! BOUNCE! [Breakdown] If the city never sleeps Who keeps dreaming underneath? きれいだった 本当に 怖いから きれいなんじゃない きれいなものにも 裏側があるだけ 문은 없어 틈은 있어 And sometimes a crack is all a world needs. ROUTE RECALCULATED. B4 blinking—who pressed that? 검은 화면—who’s dressed in black? ホームゼロから last train back No destination printed on the track One clean city, one loose tile One wrong shadow, one extra smile 빛을 따라가, 잠깐만— その「光」は誰の案内? No monster coming to eat your heart The floor just opens— THAT’S THE START! One! Two! 三! 넷! FIVE! TOKYO GOT A BACK DOOR (HEY!) EVERY LIGHT MAKES ONE MORE (MORE!) 빛이 세면 그림자도 짙어 (DARK!) 街じゅうで knock-knock-knock (KNOCK! KNOCK!) No fangs, no claws, no folklore (NO GHOSTS!) WE’RE THE ONES YOU’RE LOOKING FOR (THAT’S US!) 地図の外へ step in time Cross that crack on the count of five Who saw it? (WE DID!) 누가 불러? (WE DO!) どこへ行く? (BELOW!) TOKYO BACKDOOR— BOUNCE! BOUNCE! BOUNCE! Backdoor! (見つけた!) Backdoor! (열렸어!) Backdoor! (Don’t blink!) きれいな顔して 口がある 笑ってるうちに 飛び越えな TOKYO! TOKYO! TOKYO! BACKDOOR BOUNCE! Thank you for visiting Tokyo. You are now outside the service area. でも、まだ東京だよ。 B4.
