Obsolete Meat (feat. Kasane Teto)

オブソミート (Obsolete Meat) (feat. Kasane Teto)

Just one fine dish was all it took
とある一品を境に
to aru ippin wo sakai ni
And all of a sudden, we're rated as high as they pushed it - 3 stars
突如、担がれ方だけ、三ツ星
totsuzen, kazugare kata dake, mitsuboshi
So, we set up a shop with a tempo all too much for our means
そんで、分不相応な店舗を構えて
sonde, bunfusouou na tenpo wo kamaete
Unaware of the ins and outs, we went under
勝手が分からず、撃沈
katte ga wakarazu, gekichin

Substance, etiquette
正味、礼儀作法や
shoumi, reigi sahou ya
Table manners
テーブルマナーとか
teeburu manaa toka
Just, what even are those?
なんのこっちゃでして
nanno koccha de shite
We just took a convenient, arbitrary shot in the dark
加えて、勝手な推知で
kuwaete, katte na suichi de
And just like that
形成されていく
keisei sarete iku
Our public image took form!
パブリック・イメージ
paburikku imeeji

Oh! Is it all just
嗚呼! ただただ
aa! tada tada
The trendability that gets ahead
話題性だけが先行していて
wadaisei dake ga senkou shite ite
And we wolf it down, not getting to properly digest the stuff?
碌に咀嚼せず嚥下か
roku ni soshaku sezu enka ka
But, to get to the meat of it, if we're only conscious about
実は、見かけの映えだけ
jitsu wa, mikake no hae dake
How good it looks on the surface
意識していれば
ishiki shite ireba
The taste can be, like, whatever, it seems
味はどうだっていいらしい
aji wa dou datte ii rashii

If these menus we're churning out for dear life don't even reach anyone
必死こき、拵えたメニューも
hisshi koki, koraeta menyuu mo
Would it be synonymous to a nothing-burger?
伝わらなけりゃ、無意味と同義?
tsutawaranakerya, muimi to dougi?
In any case, I'm getting fed up with those
兎角、嘲笑塗れのレビューサイトでは
tokaku, choushou mure no rebyuu saito de wa
Baseless rumors, on those review sites with scorn all about!
流言飛語って、やんなっちゃう!
ryuugen higo tte, yannacchau!

One after another, all types of new food pop up
続々と現る新フード
zoku zoku to arawaru shin fuudo
And you won't catch up if you try eating them all
全量を食べてちゃ追いつけない
zenryou wo tabete cha oitsukenai
Once you've had a bit of that
一片食べたら、後はもう
ippen tabetara, ato wa mou
Just have as much fun as you see fit
適当に遊んでしまえ
tekitou ni asonde shimae

Our voices are stifled, not leaving any shadows
塞がった声は影も無く
fusagatta koe wa kage mo naku
And merely place shackles on our service
ただ、給仕の枷になり得るの
tada, kyuuji no kase ni nariuru no
Our extraordinary ideas, stuff like that
並々ならぬ思いとか
naminaminaru omoi toka
Are just akin to garbage
それは、塵も同然
sore wa, chiri mo douzen

We, slaves, offer up the same tastes again and again
偏食傾向の神様に
henshoku keikou no kamisama ni
To a picky eater God
また同じ味を捧ぐ奴隷
mata onaji aji wo sasagu dorei
If I was able to satisfy you
「あなたに満足してもらえたなら
anata ni manzoku shite moraeta nara
My feelings are of no concern!
私の気持ちはどうでもいいですわ!」
watashi no kimochi wa dou demo ii desu wa!

With each new dish
新たな食事が出る度
aratana shokuji ga deru tabi
A sense of nostalgia rushes out from somewhere
何処からか湧いてくる、ノスタルジー
doko kara ka waite kuru, nosutarujii
It's like, every year, we're always making the same moves
なんか、毎年いつも同じムーブだね
nanka, maitoshi itsumo onaji muubu da ne
Really, we're full to bursting on it
それこそ、お腹がいっぱい
sore koso, onaka ga ippai

What's subjective and what's objective
もう、主観と、客観が
mou, shukan to, kyakkan ga
Become jumbled up with one another
ごっちゃになっている
gocha ni natte iru
Like a disgusting salad bowl?
カスのサラダボウル?
kasu no sarada bouru?
Or is that just confirmation bias
はたまた、事実に反する
hatamata, jijitsu ni hansuru
In opposition with the truth?
確証バイアスか?
kakushou baiasu ka?

Then, suppose this
じゃあ、例えば
jaa, tatoeba
If, in a few years from now, the stars in the limelight
数年後には、脚光の主役が
suunen go ni wa, kyakkou no shuyaku ga
Where to be replaced
取って代わられているとして
totte kawararete iru to shite
Even when that happens
その時、あなたはそれでも
sono toki, anata wa sore demo
Would you still be here, still be by my side?
私の隣に居続けてはくれるのかな
watashi no tonari ni itsuzukete wa kureru no kana

As a consequence of the climb and decline of trends
流行り廃りの延長線に
hayari hari no enchousen ni
We rot, falling off and away
腐り落つ私達が有って
kusariotsu watashitachi ga atte
Not even past our expiry date
賞味期限も過ぎずに
shoumi kigen mo sugizu ni
We're disposed of at once, and then
とっとと廃棄で
tottoto haiki de
Next order
「次の注文」って
tsugi no chuumon tte

You, gleefully proclaiming an open secret needing no mention
大前提な、公然の秘密
daimaentei na, kougen no himitsu
How many times have you said the same thing, over and over?
嬉々として宣って、何番煎じ?
ureshii to shite nonatte, nanban senji?
Now that it's come to this, there's nothing else to be done
こうなった以上、もう是非もない
kou natta ijou, mou zehi mo nai
Hope you enjoy your cold scraps
冷めきっている残飯を召し上がれ
samekitte iru zanpan wo meshiagare

I subsequently aimed for ambition
後続狙った功名心
kōzoku neratta kōmyōshin
Isn't being too greedy just a big waste?
欲張りすぎたって空回り?
yokubari sugita tte karamawari?
This dignity we harbor unchangingly
変わらず抱いている矜持だけ
kawarazu daite iru kyōji dake
May we never cast it away
捨てないように
sutenai yō ni

With provisions that have gone oversaturated
飽和してしまった供給で
hōsha shite shimatta kyōkyū de
We turn out fast to cycle through those, too!
そのサイクルすらも速くなる
sono saikuru sura mo hayaku naru
Let's not bother ourselves with senseless rumors and
下馬評なんて気にせずに
geba hyō nante ki ni sezu ni
Have it our own way
好き勝手やろうぜ
suki katte yarou ze

If you only take the time to eat imitation food
模造品ばっか食べていりゃ
mozōhin bakka tabete irya
Look, you're gonna come to hate the same old taste
そら、同じ味に飽きは来よう
sora, onaji aji ni aki wa koyou
That stuff may already be done for at this point
直に此処いらも、お釈迦になるから
jiki ni koko iramo, oshaka ni naru kara
So, after we've had a bit of everything, as much as we wanted
お好きな加減で、食い散らした後
osuki na kagen de, kui chirashita ato
We'll clasp our hands together, and say our thanks for the meal!
お手々を合わせて、ご馳走様でした
ote te wo awasete, gochisō-sama deshita
