女子かしまし物語
"The Story of Noisy Girls"
Morning Musume
[ morning musume || index ]

Postscript: [Thank you to those who sent me corrections!]

• Takahashi says the last line of her verse in Fukui dialect... which doesn't translate well into English.

• Purikura (Print Club) are photo stickers.

• A goukon is a party where there's the same number of males/females in hopes of matching up everyone (sort of like a singles party). Tsuji is upset because she invited one extra girl by accident, and has to uninvite her.

• Otsubone is what younger female employees call the oldest co-worker, and she is usually disliked by all (and has a bossy attitude).  One way to interpret Kaori's verse is that it's a stab at how she's the oldest member and is still single... but you could also call it a nod to Kaori's upcoming graduation.

"First up! Rika Ishikawa"
She doesn't think so herself
But she's definitely an honor student
Other girls get jealous
of a girl as seriously cute as she is
"Ehe!"

"Miki Fujimoto"
Don't know if she's the youngest or what
But she's clearly seen as a cheeky girl
She's got a knack for starting up conversations
Guess you could call it a kind of a talent...
"I've found a delicious cake shop,
 so please take me~"

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If two or three people get together
It's noisy, noisy

"Ai Takahashi, come on!"
Normally, she's very self-conscious about it
And says she doesn't have an accent
But it comes out when she's surprised
Her hometown dialect
"No it ain't!"

"Alright! Michishige"
Off to the supermarket with no makeup
Rode the train with no makeup
Took purikura with no makeup
"How nice, to be young..."
"Yup!"
"Dammit~"

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If you live earnestly
Business thrives, wao!

"OK! Nozomi Tsuji"
Upon deciding the date/time for her singles party
There's one too many girls
Seems like she's contacting
The girl who she can't invite...
"I'm in such a bind~"
"Yep, yep"

"Aibon Kago"
Can't decide on a style for her bangs
Understandably, she's in a bind
When shortcake comes out
Understandably, she's high-spirited!
"Yay~!"
Yes!

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If two or three people get together
It's noisy, noisy

"Okay! Makoto Ogawa"
You're a cheerful character
So you make everyone around you cheerful
Go about like that in love, in work
Let's go cheerfully!
"How is everyone~!"

"Straight-forward Reina Tanaka"
"Were you a bad kid back home?"
'Cause you look like that kind of girl
That flashy Yankee fashion
suits you best
"What are you saying~?"

"Kaorin Iida"
One by one, your old friends
are getting married
You've really done a great job
of having taken over the group
"But only until next year!"

"Mari Yaguchi"
That's nice you're over 20 now
But why don't you have any sex appeal?
When will your real sexy beam
Come out!!
"What? It's not out... wa!"

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If two or three people get together
It's noisy, noisy

"Alright! Hitomi Yoshizawa"
You sell your image
as a natural cute girl with a boyish style
With just a change in the way she thinks
"Wow, girls really do change~"
"Shut up~"

"Go ahead, Asami Konno!"
On her life, she straightens her curly hair
An endless effort each day
Wakes up before everyone else
She's got a hair iron life
"I don't have curly hair"
"You liar"

"Hey! Risa Niigaki"
So happy she's cut her bangs
Her face just wants to announce it
She comes closer with a grin
"Ah, your bangs, cute, cute"
"Really? Yeah, they are, aren't they..."

"Lastly! Eri Kamei"
Finally, she's gotten used to everything now
And now talks to everyone
What kind of character will she progress to?
Choose on at your own pace
"This one. Ummm. This one..."

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If two or three people get together
It's noisy, noisy

One more time!

Wow wow wow, youth
There's so many kinds!
If you live earnestly
Business thrives
Laugh, laugh!
