Oh Yeah!
プリンセス・プリンセス Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

眠れない夜が続き
ウロウロとオリの中
もつれた髪につきまとう
ハウリングも止まらない
しくじるはずはない
ずっとやってこれたじゃない
退屈なジョークを抜け出す
出口はひとつだけ

あのバスに乗りどこか遠くへ
朝もやの向こう 街が見えた
さあ はじまるよ

Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
あなたの住む ブリキの城
Oh yeah! 火をつけたい
会いに来たわ
Are you ready tonight?
Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
あなたの声 もっと聞かせて
Oh yeah! 泳ぎたいの
ライトの海 wow wow, let me go

0ではじまる電話は
ホテルじゃスロットマシーン
おやすみのキスか 大ゲンカ
どちらかは運任せ
昨日の涙は 朝には誰も気づかない
出番を待つコスチュームが
勝手に踊りだす

胸が高なり ちょっと震えてる
指輪外して ベルが鳴れば
Three, two, one, let's go

Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
あなたの住む ブリキの城
Oh yeah! 火をつけたい
会いに来たわ are you ready tonight?
Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
あなたの声 もっと聞かせて
Oh yeah! 泳ぎたいの
ライトの海 wow wow, let me go

Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
この夜に抱かれていたい
Oh yeah! 火をつけたい
燃え尽きたい hey, let me go
Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
この夜に抱かれていたい
Oh yeah! 火をつけたい
この夜に燃え尽きたい
Oh yeah! 抱きしめたい
あなたの住む ブリキの城
Oh yeah! 火をつけたい




会いに来たわ
Are you ready tonight?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Oh Yeah! by プリンセス・プリンセス express the longing for an escape from the monotony of everyday routine. The singer is experiencing sleepless nights, wandering restlessly and unable to quiet the howling in her mind. She encourages herself, saying that she has never failed before and can break free from boring jokes and live life to the fullest. The song is filled with a sense of excitement, with the singer imagining leaving on a bus to a faraway place and catching a glimpse of a city shrouded in morning mist.


The lyrics refer to chance meetings and goodbyes, with the possibility of either a goodnight kiss or a big fight. The singer talks about yesterday's tears, implying that the sorrows of the past don't matter and the same costumes that had seemed lifeless before come to life and start dancing on their own. The song encourages living in the moment and seizing the day, even if that means taking risks and using up all one's energy until one burns out.

[0:25]
A sleepless night followed by wandering around in a cage
Even the howling that haunts tangled hair does not stop
You can't fail to do it, you've been doing it all along
Get out of boring jokes There is only one way out

[0:54]
I took that bus somewhere far away
Through the morning haze I could see the city
Here it comes

[1:12]
OH YEAH! I want to hug your tin castle where you live
OH YEAH! I'm here to light you up and to see you! Are you ready tonight?
OH YEAH! I want to hold you in my arms and I want to hear more of your voice
OH YEAH! I want to swim in the sea of lights and let me go

[1:51]
Telephones that begin with zero are slot machines in hotels
Goodnight kisses or big fights, whichever is more likely
Yesterday's tears will not be noticed by anyone in the morning
Costumes dancing on their own accord, waiting for their turn

[2:19]
Chest high, a little shaky
When the ring is off and the bell rings,
3-2-1 LET'S GO!

[2:37]
OH YEAH! I want to hug your tin castle where you live
OH YEAH! I want to light a fire and I'm here to see you! Are you ready tonight?
OH YEAH! I want to hug you Your voice, let's hear more
OH YEAH! I want to swim in a sea of lights Wow wow let me go

[3:18]
OH YEAH! I want to hug you I want to be held on this night
OH YEAH! I want to light it and burn it out. Hey let me go

[3:31]
OH YEAH! I want to hug you, I want to be held on this night
OH YEAH! I want to light a fire, I want to burn up on this night
OH YEAH! I want to hug your tin castle where you live
OH YEAH! I want to light a fire and I'm here to see you! Are you ready tonight?

OH YEAH! [1990] Princess Princess
Released on April 21, 1990 by Sony Records Japan.
Words: Kanako Nakayama Music: Kaori Okui 
Arranged by Princess Princess
The 9th single of Princess Princess
(English translation of the rough meaning of the Japanese lyrics)

I've been having sleepless nights for a while now,
It's like I'm wandering around in a cage
My tangled hair is howling and it's loud like it won't stop
We can't mess up, we've been doing fine for so long
There's only one way out of this boring joke of a day
We'll get on that bus and go somewhere far away
I can see the city through the morning mist.

(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you in my arms, in the tin castle where you live
(OH YEAH!) I wanna light you on fire, I've come to see you
Are you ready tonight?
(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you, I wanna hear more of your voice
(OH YEAH!) I wanna swim in the light blue sea Wow wow let me go

Phone numbers that start with a zero are slot machines at the hotel.
We can kiss goodnight or have a big fight, it's up to you.
Yesterday's tears will be gone in the morning and no one will even notice
As I wait for my cue, my costume seems to dance on its own
My heart is racing, I'm shaking a little in anticipation
Take off the ring, and when the bell rings, 3-2-1, LET'S GO

(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you in my arms, in the tin castle where you live
(OH YEAH!) I wanna light you on fire, I've come to see you
Are you ready tonight?
(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you, I wanna hear more of your voice
(OH YEAH!) I wanna swim in the light blue sea, Wow wow let me go

(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you, I wanna hold you this night
(OH YEAH!) I wanna set your heart on fire, I wanna burn us both out
      Hey let me go! 

(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you, I wanna be in your arms this night
(OH YEAH!) I wanna set your heart on fire, We're gonna burn up together Hey let me go

(OH YEAH!) I wanna hold you, in the tin castle where you live
(OH YEAH!) I wanna set you on fire, I've come to see you
Are you ready tonight?
