Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make a big noise playing in the street
Gonna be a big man someday
You got blood in your face, big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place
Singing we will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
Keep the beat up, why, I'm gonna turn your heat up
Gonna get you on the floor, gonna burn your feet up
Rocking you like I never rocked you before
Like the way I do got you screaming for more
We causing utter devastation
When we stepping to the place
And better believe that you can see

We will, we will rock you

At first glance, these lyrics seem to be a bit out of place in a Japanese song, considering they are from the classic Queen song, "We Will Rock You". However, it’s not uncommon for J-pop artists to mix in elements of Western music or pop culture into their songs. In this case, the song "冠婚葬祭" (pronounced "kankonsousai") directly translates to "life events" and the lyrics talk about how life moves forward and changes with time, from being a young boy playing in the streets and dreaming of becoming a big man, to growing older and perhaps feeling like an old man pleading for something more.
The reference to "We Will Rock You" in the chorus is likely symbolic of the passage of time and how even though life changes, there are certain things that remain constant and continue to energize and excite. The repetition of the phrase "we will rock you" is almost like a mantra, encouraging the listener to keep moving forward and keep the energy alive, no matter what stage of life they are in.
Overall, the song seems to be a celebration of life and all its ups and downs, encouraging the listener to keep moving forward and finding joy in life's events, both big and small.
