Lies” – Kumi KodaBest: Second Session (2006)

Songs called “Lies”, 15th in a series

According to Wikipedia, “though [Kumi Koda’s] early releases presented a conservative, quiet image, since as early as 2003 Koda has adopted a sexier and more provocative style.” The J-pop artist is a fashion trend-setter, and has been compared to Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears.

At least 90% of the video is going over my head. The 10% that remains is disturbing, and not just in the way I assume its creators intended.

The fact that it exists causes me existential angst.

Lyrics

Hey my baby wakatte ita no yo mae kara
Hiki tometai no kokoro mo karada mo
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
Mou ichido sou mitsume naoshite hoshii
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

Sukoshi zutsu dakedo kawari hajimeteta
Kenka mo jojo ni nakunatte
Sokubaku datte sarete ita no ni
Heion na futari ga soko ni iru…

Futsuu ni ikeba korekara kitto zutto
Shiawase tsukameta hazu
Towa ni owari ga konai hazu na no ni
Doushite na no oshiete hoshii

*Hey my baby wakatte ita no yo mae kara
Hiki tometai no kokoro mo karada mo
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
Don’t tell a lie anymore to me
Watashi no subete wo uketomete kure nai no
Hey babe just my hot boy
Mou ichido sou mitsume naoshite hoshii
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

Kenka no tochuu soto ni tobidashita
Sonna koto shite dou naru no?

Futari no mizo wo fukameru dake na no ni
Don’t you need me doushite na no?
Tatta hitokoto kakeru yasashi sa wa
Itoshi sa no ura ni kakurete shimau

Hey my baby otagai omotte itemo
Kokoro ni uso wo tsukatte shimau no
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
Don’t tell a lie anymore to me
Kantan ni kotoba nabete mireba ii dake
Hey babe just my hot boy
Ayumi yoritai anata ni sukoshi dakedemo
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

Renai tte mono hodokou
Fukuzatsu na mono wa nai no yo
Sou chotto shita
Shikoukairo mitai na mono wo
Kaete mirereba ii…

*Repeat

Translation:

Hey my baby before you can understand me
you gotta stop jerkin’ around with my heart and body
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
I want to see us start over again once more
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

You started to change, little by little
you didn’t fight with me as much anymore
Becuase I put restrictions on you
we were able to be peaceful together…

If we just take things slowly, surely,
we could keep holding on to this hapiness
Please tell me baby, how we can make
sure that this never ends

*Hey my baby before you can understand me
you gotta stop jerkin’ around with my heart and body
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
Don’t tell a lie anymore to me
You haven’t got me completely
Hey babe just my hot boy
I want to see us start over again once more
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

You walk out on me in the middle of an argument.
Why do you have to do that to me?
You’re just widening the gap between us
Why don’t you need me anymore?
You could just say one kind word
with some live hidden within it

Hey my baby, I believe we’re equal
but you put lies in my heart
You’re my special You’re my bad boy
Don’t tell a lie anymore to me
I’d like you to talk to me in simple words
Hey babe just my hot boy
I just want you to compromise a little bit
I just want you babe
You’re my bad boy

Romance doesn’t have to
be so diffucult
So just try it for a bit
I just wish you could change
the way you think…

*Repeat
