Scandal - Tokyo Lyrics + English Translation

Tokyo no ame wa totemo samui to
Oshiete kureta mishiranu ojisan
"Ore mo wakakerya, mou ichido…"
Sou yume wo katatta mishiranu ojisan

Saikin no ko wa nani kangaete iru ka nante
Sonna no wakaranai
"Ima nara ocha shiyou" to koe kakeru
Ojisan no hou ga imi wakannai desu desu…

Tokyo marashon nijuuyo jikan
Raibuhause de nemuru musume-tachi
Me ga au dake de minna tomodachi
Tobikau uwasa dore ga shinjitsu

Saikin no ko wa nani kangaete iru ka nante
Sonna no oshienai
Okotoba desu kedo aete iu nara
Warau kado ni wa fuku kitaru happii desu

Hey papa Nihon wa kokoro ga byouki ni natta no kana?
Hey mama sugu ni wa naoranai no
Okusuri nutte ageru

Hey papa watashi wa muzukashii koto ga kirai nan desu
Hey mama sekai wa suugaku no genri de dekiteru no?
Hey papa Nihon wa kokoro ga byouki ni natta no kana?
Hey mama sugu ni wa naoranai no
Okusuri nutte ageru

Tokyo wa kyou mo furu surottoru
Agatte oriru mishiranu oji-san
"Kimi no kimochi wa yoku wakaru"
Sou totemo yasashii mishiranu oji-san

"Ore mo mukashi wa mucha wo shitanda" nante
Nanta akutibu pojitiby naiibu
"Soudan noru yo chotto soko made"
Ojisan wa yappa imi wakannai desu

English Translation

An older man I'd never met before

Told me that the rain in Tokyo is really cold

"If I only I could be young again..."

The stranger told me about his dreams

I don't know

What kids these days are thinking

"Why don't we go out for tea one day when you're at a loose end?"

He's the one who's making no sense

That's how it is...

24-hour Tokyo marathon

The girls sleeping at the concert venue

Once glance was all it took for us to become friends

Gossip flies back and forth – how much of it is true?

I won't tell him

What kids these days are thinking

I know it's a cliché, but if I had to say one thing

It's "Fortune favours those who smile"

Hey papa, is Japan sick at heart?

Hey mama, it won't get better overnight

I'll give the country some medicine

Hey papa, I hate things that are difficult

Hey mama, was the world built on mathematical principles?

Hey papa, is Japan sick at heart?

Hey mama, it won't get better overnight

I'll give the country some medicine

Tokyo's going full throttle as usual today

The stranger goes in and out of the city

"I know how you feel"

How kind he is

"I used to do crazy things too"

Active, positive, naive

"I'll give you some advice"

He's definitely not making any sense
