Mebachiko

Oshitari Yuushi (Kiuchi Hidenobu) - Kesshou
Translated by Athena

I woke up this morning, and glanced at my alarm clock
And I was shocked, I overslept
I had to rush to get ready
Cuz last night I was on the phone until late,
Having a long conversation with Atobe
I have to hurry and shampoo, brush my teeth, style my hair
Throw on my uniform, grab my bag, oops, can't forget my cell phone
Hmm, anything else?
I put on my glasses and thought, "It's time to go!"
But whoa, that's this? (I've got a mebachiko...)

MEBACHIKO x 3 (I'm talking about a sty)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (Don't mess with it)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I should put in some eye drops)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I'm gonna be dejected all day)

Let's make takoyaki*! It's been a while! Let's make a lot of 'em!
Damn it, it doesn't taste good!
Did you grab some that weren't too fresh? That's no good, is it donko or konpachi?**
No, no, no, no, isn't that kind of dated?
And come to think of it, how old are you anyway with that perm?
You're a pretty funny guy. What do you wanna drink? Iced coffee? Hiyashiame? You wanna have some candy? Here!

McDonald's? For real?
I dunno about that, it's kinda scary.
How can you say that, that's messed up!
It's true, it's true, it's true, I'm telling you!
I don't care, I don't care, leave it to me.
Dinner will be obanzai, like banzai or manzai?***
(This is like a manga...)

MEBACHIKO x 3 (Don't talk like that)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (It irritates me)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (Don't get carried away)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (Don't keep saying it)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (That pisses me off)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (It irritates me)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (How odd)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (Did someone give it to me?)

Ah....come to think of it, in his eyes, too..!!
...did I get too close to him?

MEBACHIKO x 3 (That's what I thought)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (He gave it to me)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (It can't be helped)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I'm gonna be dejected all day)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I'm talking about a sty)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I said you shouldn't mess with it)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (I should put in some eye drops)
MEBACHIKO x 3 (MEBACHIKO...dismissed!)

(*) takoyaki: Octopus in fried batter

(**) I have no idea what he means here when he says "donko ka konpachi." A donko and kAnpachi are types of fish, but that doesn't seem to make any sense here. Not that anything makes sense in this stanza, lol.

(***)
obanzai: A homemade meal
banzai: Hurrah!
manzai: A comedic routine, usually done with two people. Kansai is famous for this.
