My Jam: Maeda Atsuko's Żubrówka to Half Moon



Enjoying this jazzy (lounge?) number from Acchan's recent single.

Setting is a girl who's just gone through a break-up, and wants to drink the night away.
A bit heavier than your standard idol fare, but Acchan's a big girl now.

{Romaji lyrics and translation after the cut}

ZUBUROKKA to HAAFU MUUN

Żubrówka and the Half Moon

Lyrics: Akimoto Yasushi
Composition: Marutani Manabu

Squatting down on the edge of the stairs
While drinking a bottle of Żubrówka straight from the bottle
Grieving over my bad luck
There's still long to go until this long night breaks into dawn

Whenever I love somebody
I get hurt
Someday surely
I'll become happy

Half moon
Sorry for making you listen to my monologue
Leave me alone!
Let me be alone
There's no longer anyone waiting for me when I go back to my room
Leave me alone!
Whatever it is, might as well drink
WOW...
WOW...

The garbage truck with its spinning brushes
While going around the town in the morning
Someone's dreams are coming to an end
Sweet memories Making them pretty

If I get drunk like this
I'll forget it
That cheap mobile phone
Where did I leave it

Half moon
Before I knew it you had disappeared
I can't remember
I can't recall
Up to the day before yesterday we were all but smitten with love...
I can't remember
Let's take another drink

The form of the moon
It seems that it's changed
A person's heart
Is something that can be broken
And split into half...

Half moon
Sorry for making you listen to my monologue
Leave me alone!
Let me be alone
There's no longer anyone waiting for me when I go back to my room
Leave me alone!
Whatever it is, might as well drink

Half moon
Before I knew it you had disappeared
I can't remember
I can't recall
Up to the day before yesterday we were all but smitten with love...
I can't remember
Let's take another drink

WOW...
WOW...
