Hoka no koto:

Hit single from the Kinki Kids. My boss lent it to me and insisted that I learn it in order to karaoke. (In Heero Yui voice: Ninmu kanryou.) It really doesn't work in English, but I gave it a shot anyway. The only CLAMP connection here (and a mighty lame one it is, too) is the word "umarekawarou," which makes me think of Ran. Then again, what doesn't? ^_^;;;;;;

King of Summer

You're being kinda timid--that's no good, baby
Give it all you've got like always--get it on
I always used to be confused
You always used to keep swinging and missing
We were both searching for it--a great big summertime

Yo! Let's taste summer under the sun
And smile--more, more!
Yo! Yesterday's mistakes, tomorrow's failures,
Worry about them the day after tomorrow
Don't worry--the earth will keep on turning, oh my shine
Because you'll keep bringing tomorrows

You're being kinda shy--that's no good, baby
Can't we just squeeze each other tight?
Relax and let yourself go--don't you know
This summer you're my only sunshine
Crazy and pure and hot
You sweep the whole sky clean--what an amazing summertime

Yo! Let's be reborn under the sun
Keep on burning, more, more!
Yo! We'll say byebye to all our jumbled troubles
With the blue sky
Don't worry--your feelings are getting through, oh my shine
Because I know you'll answer me

Yo! Let's taste summer under the sun
And smile--more, more!
Yo! Yesterday's mistakes, tomorrow's failures,
Worry about them the day after tomorrow

Yo! Let's be reborn under the sun
Come on, summer, more, more!
Yo! We'll say byebye to all our jumbled troubles
With the blue sky
Don't worry--the earth will keep on turning, oh my shine
Because you'll keep bringing tomorrows
