End of the World Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
ちゃんと消化して僕の一部に
上品ばかりが全てじゃないんだ
野蛮に下品にかぶりつくのもまた
愛を知らない獣のような
純粋で凶暴なその瞳
奥に残酷にえぐりこむ
価値のあるとこはもっと深くに
野蛮であっても無礼ではいけない
神の恵みに感謝していただく
味がなくならないでね
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
時間をかければ良いわけじゃない
それぞれ適した調理法がある
寝かせるもの サッとやるもの
味付けの濃いもの 素材を活かすもの
新鮮なもの 腐敗したもの
固くするもの 柔らかくするもの
食べ頃もある 旬もある
それはもちろんそれはそうさ
じゃあさ僕はどうなんだい?
食べ頃も過ぎて旬も過ぎたかい?
美味しいまんまでいれてるのかな
コックの腕が試される時だね
嫌がったって胃袋にねじ込む
一度食べたら忘れられない味に
神の恵みに感謝していただく
味がなくならないでね
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
Juicy, crispy, crunchy, fluffy, tender, chewy, all delicious
