Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vinyl by King Gnu from Japanese to English.
貫いて この心を 思い切り突き刺して
tsuranuite kono kokoro o omoikiri tsukisashite
Pierce this heart, stab it as hard as you can
火照ったままで 知らぬふりはもうやめて
hotetta mama de shiranu furi wa mou yamete
Still burning up, stop pretending you don't know
暇つぶしには飽きたのよ 纏ったビニールを脱がせたいの
himatsubushi ni wa akita no yo matotta biniiru o nugasetai no
I'm sick of killing time, I want to strip off the vinyl you're wearing
お前の思惑から無邪気に抜け出して
omae no omowaku kara mujaki ni nukedashite
Innocently slipping out of your schemes
'さよなら 愛を込めて'
sayonara ai o komete
"Goodbye, with love"
気の済むまで暴れなよ
ki no sumu made abarena yo
Go wild till you're satisfied
哀れだろ? むしゃくしゃするぜ
aware daro mushakushasuru ze
Pathetic, right? It pisses me off
喧騒に上がる煙に飛び込んでいくだけさ
kensou ni agaru kemuri ni tobikondeiku dake sa
I'm just diving into the smoke rising over the commotion
「遊びがないの あなたには」なんて適当に言葉侍らせて
asobi ga nai no anata ni wa nante tekitou ni kotoba haberasete
"You've got no sense of fun," I say, tossing out words offhandedly
喧騒に上がる煙に薪をくべろ
kensou ni agaru kemuri ni maki o kubero
Throw more wood on the smoke rising over the commotion
今日も軽やかなステップで騙し騙し生きて行こうじゃないか
kyou mo karoyakana suteppu de damashidamashi ikiteikou janaika
Today too, let's live on with light steps, fooling ourselves as we go
真っ暗な明日を欺いてさ
makkurana ashita o azamuite sa
Deceiving a pitch-black tomorrow
誰に向けたナイフなの? 何に突き動かされてる?
dare ni muketa naifu na no nani ni tsukiugokasareteru
Who's that knife pointed at? What's driving you on?
苦しいだけの'現実'はもう止めて
kurushii dake no genjitsu wa mou yamete
Stop living a 'reality' that's nothing but pain
'さよなら 愛を込めて'
sayonara ai o komete
"Goodbye, with love"
息を吸いなよ この街の 有り余るほどの空気を
iki o suina yo kono machi no ariamaru hodo no kuuki o
Take a breath of this city's air, there's more than enough of it
焦れったいビニールの中から
jirettai biniiru no naka kara
If you've broken out of that frustrating vinyl
ストリートへ抜け出たなら
sutoriito e nukedeta nara
And onto the street
遊びきるんだ この世界
asobikiru n da kono sekai
Then play this world to the fullest
喧騒 狂乱に 雨あられ
kensou kyouran ni amearare
Commotion and frenzy, coming down like hail
掻っ攫ったもん勝ちでしょ?
kassaratta mon gachi desho
Whoever snatches it up first wins, right?
さよなら 愛を込めて
sayonara ai o komete
Goodbye, with love
思いの丈を着飾って
omoi no take o kikazatte
Dressed up in everything I feel
どんちゃん騒ぎのナイトクラブから
donchansawagi no naitokurabu kara
From a nightclub in full-on party mode
さよなら 愛を込めて
sayonara ai o komete
Goodbye, with love
思いの丈を着飾って
omoi no take o kikazatte
Dressed up in everything I feel
繋いだその手は離さないで
tsunaida sono te wa hanasanaide
Don't let go of the hand you're holding
意図するなよ この身など 博打だろ 清々するぜ
itosuru na yo kono mi nado bakuchi daro seiseisuru ze
Don't plan it out, this body's just a gamble, what a relief
激動 時代の坩堝へ
gekidou jidai no rutsubo e
Into the melting pot of a turbulent era
飛び込んでゆくだけさ
tobikondeyuku dake sa
I'm just gonna dive right in
'遊びじゃないのよ貴女とは'
asobi janai no yo anata to wa
"I'm not just playing around with you"
なんて嘘で固めたこの夜なら
nante uso de katameta kono yoru nara
If this night is built on lies like that
冗談もご愛嬌でしょ?
joudan mo goaikyou desho
Then a joke or two is just part of the charm, right?
暴れ回れよ 哀れだろ?
abaremaware yo aware daro
Go wild, run riot, pathetic, right?
むしゃくしゃするぜ
mushakushasuru ze
It pisses me off
喧騒に上がる煙に飛び込んでいくだけさ
kensou ni agaru kemuri ni tobikondeiku dake sa
I'm just diving into the smoke rising over the commotion
遊びきるんだ この世界
asobikiru n da kono sekai
Then play this world to the fullest
喧騒 狂乱に 雨あられ
kensou kyouran ni amearare
Commotion and frenzy, coming down like hail
最後の最後には ニヤリと笑ってみせる
saigo no saigo ni wa niyari to warattemiseru
At the very end, I'll flash you a grin
