Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No, oh
Somebody out there better get this
Not many people can do it like this
How about some speakers to amplify me?
How about rhyme to fortify me?
Life's messy so I clarify it
I need someone who's true
Someone who does the laundry too
So what you gonna do?
Please don't forget to follow-through
I take my diamond shoes
Someone who tries to be on time
Do what you said you'll do
I hope you like to follow-through
All that I need's a bit of practice
My mind is set on bigger business
This is not a time for reminiscing
This is something new and interesting
Why are you trying to classify it?
This is music for all humanity from me
Dreaming of hip-hop tunes
They say you've got the proper tools
So what you gonna do?
Keep doing things the way you do
I take my diamond shoes
Someone tries to be on time
Do what you came to do
I came to see you follow-through
I need someone who's true
Someone who does the laundry too
So what you gonna do?
Please don't forget to follow-through
I take my diamond shoes
Someone who tries to be on time
Do what you said you'll do
I hope you like to follow-through

The song "Animato" by 宇多田ヒカル is an upbeat and catchy track that explores the singer's desire for someone who is true and reliable. The opening lines, "Nobody's like you, No, oh," suggest that the singer has been let down by people in the past and is now on the lookout for someone special who can deliver on their promises. She goes on to explain that she needs someone who can "do the laundry too," indicating that she's looking for a partner who is willing to share the daily household chores.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of following through on one's commitments. The singer declares that she hopes her ideal partner "likes to follow-through," and lists several qualities that are important to her - someone who is on time, reliable, and honest. She also mentions that she takes her "diamond shoes," which symbolize her success, very seriously and wants someone who can respect and support her ambitions.
The lyrics of "Animato" suggest that the song is about finding the right partner in life who is trustworthy, dependable, and shares similar values. It also touches upon the singer's desire for success and the need for hard work and dedication in order to achieve one's goals.
