Well now, such a noble wind is blowing again today. From atop the tatami, they tell me to read the room. [Verse 1] Good grief, it seems I’ve finally grown up. But once I pass through the curtain, all I see are the same faces. Oh, really? When they bow their heads to some great important lord, the whole crowd behind them falls like dominoes. Sigh. “Hold your tongue,” they say, so I swallow my voice. Around my throat, the sparks begin to laugh. [Pre-Chorus 1] Reason, they call it — a screen eaten by worms. Decorate it nicely, and perhaps the holes disappear? Well now, who decided what this “normal” thing should be? Don’t make me worship it like a bundle of cash. [Chorus 1] Come now, this Reiwa floating world is schadenfreude, schadenfreude. So absurd it’s almost delightful, delightful. If following the crowd puts food on the table, then even a dog collar might become the next fashion. Look, all you weathercocks, spin and spin around, changing the name tag on every storm. Laugh, laugh away, you well-behaved city. I’ll keep dancing like a fool. [Verse 2] Yes, yes, next comes “personal responsibility,” does it? What a convenient spell you carry around. Oh, really? Speak of dreams, and it’s youthful foolishness. Stay silent, and they say you lack ambition. Well now, the rusty fan of the self-appointed critic sweeps the dust from the internet again today. In this timeline like an old tenement row, I heard fires and quarrels are the flowers of the town. [Pre-Chorus 2] Compassion, they call it — a price tag wearing makeup. They pretend to help, then collect the interest. Come now, if you’re going to score another person’s pain, go summon Lord Enma and have him judge it. [Chorus 2] Come now, this Reiwa floating world is schadenfreude, schadenfreude. So pitiful it becomes ridiculous, ridiculous. They push your back, saying, “Move forward,” then call the cliff by the name of future. Look, those masters of reading the room hold their breath, wearing the face of the living while rotting away. Laugh, laugh away, you spotless little country. I’ll sing with a filthy voice. [Bridge] Ah, my true feelings are always deep inside my sleeve. If I show them, it’s cold. If I hide them, they’re heavy. Sigh. Still, I could never become skillful enough. With a cracked tea bowl, I drink the moon. Oh, really? The ladder to success shines with oil. The higher you climb, the less you can see your own feet. Well now, if this is the world, then how delightful. Schadenfreude, schadenfreude — pour the poison in. [Final Chorus] Come now, this Reiwa floating world is schadenfreude, schadenfreude. The more sane you stay, the more dangerous it gets. Even when the flute of “follow the crowd” begins to play, my heels are still laughing. Look, don’t read the wind — tear a hole through it. Strike the wooden clappers against that silent throat. Laugh, laugh away, at the edge of the times. I’ll keep living like a fool. [Outro] Well now, the kinder the face of respectable society, the farther away it seems to be from the floating world. Oh, really? Haha! ✦・━・✦・━・✦・━・✦ Thanks for listening! <3 — Murasaki :D
