With their unique style of psychedelic garage and a mix of R&B, Okamoto's have been likened to The Rolling Stones, The Who and The Stooges.
Okamoto's come with a message, barely 19 and they already have the fire and passion to take over the world questioning the forefathers of Rock itself. They do not simply know, but have the courage to ask Bob Dylan if in fact " The times have actually changed" and of course still maintain the punk rock mentality in asking why are they not learning about rock in school. They have the guts of fearless teenagers, scaring us one adult at a time. Live shows that make the blood curdle at the fact that they have only just graduated from high school, the old are afraid, the young are eating it up. They really are a horrifying band!
June of 2009 saw them release their debut album "Here are Okamoto's" and with over 100 live shows under their belt, Okamoto's are going to just get better and scarier with every step they take. So get on that "Rocket to Japan" because everyone is going to wanna dance with these guys

責任感のあるオトナが
友達にはいないもんで
都市伝説は あなた次第
パヤパヤ パヤパヤ
ウウ 愛を信じているオトナが
どこを見たっていないもんで
もしもいたら 大至急
法律で保護 するべきでしょって
だましだまし歳をとってく
馬鹿のふりが上手くなってく
笑えないことも笑ってらあ
ちゃらちゃら
マジメになったら 涙が出るぜ
マジメになると 死にそうだぜ
けどこのままじゃ 駄目だって誰か
叱ってくれないか パヤパヤ
背中で全部語るような
ジジイについて行きたいな
海は広いな 大きいな
行って見たいな 他所の国まで
だましだまし歳をとってく
安い酒で胃を洗っては
忘れたいことを忘れたら だらだら whoa
マジメになったら 涙が出るぜ
マジメになると 吐きそうだぜ
生きてりゃいいこと
あるよって誰か
教えてくれないか
だだ だましだまし自由なふりして
だましだまし利口なふりして
だましだまし自分だましたら

だらだらしてちゃ 駄目だって誰か
駄目だって誰か 叱ってくれないか

The lyrics to OKAMOTO'S's song "Majime Ni Nattara Namida Ga Deruze" express a lack of desire to be serious and responsible. The opening lines say, "Gah I don't want, I don't want to be serious," and the chorus repeats the phrase, "When I become serious, tears come out," indicating a fear or aversion to taking on adult responsibilities. The song suggests that being too serious can lead to feeling overwhelmed and even suicidal.
The lyrics also touch on the themes of friendship and love. The second verse speaks of adult love being an urban legend, and the bridge calls for someone to teach the singer about good things in life. Meanwhile, the verses and chorus express a desire to be carefree and not worry about things like getting older or forgetting unpleasant memories with cheap alcohol. The ending lines ask for someone to scold or criticize the singer, indicating a need for guidance or discipline.
Overall, "Majime Ni Nattara Namida Ga Deruze" is a playful and lively song that encapsulates the conflicting feelings of wanting to be carefree while also feeling the pressure to mature.

Gah I don't want, I don't want to be serious
I really don't want to take myself too seriously

N/A
Adults with a sense of responsibility
People who take things too seriously
Don't have friends, so
They're not very fun to be around
Urban legends are up to you,
It's up to you if you believe them or not
Whether you believe it or not
It doesn't really matter

Ah, adults who believe in love
People who are idealistic about love
Can't find it no matter where they look,
They haven't found the right person yet
If there is one, they should be protected
If they find their soulmate, they should treasure them
Through trickery, we grow older
We're getting older without really growing up
Getting better at acting stupid,
We're pretending not to care about things
Laughing even at things that aren't funny,
We pretend that everything's fine when it's really not

When you become serious, tears will flow

I want to follow an old man
I want to learn from someone wise
Who can communicate everything through his back
Someone who can communicate without words
The sea is wide and large,
The world is vast and full of possibilities
I want to go to other countries and see
I want to experience new things
Through trickery, we grow older
We're getting older without really growing up
Washing our stomachs with cheap booze,
Trying to forget our problems with alcohol
If we forget what we want to forget, we're lazy
If we're trying to escape our problems, we're being lazy
Chara Chara whoa

When you become serious, tears will flow
When you take things too seriously, it can be overwhelming
When you become serious, you feel like throwing up
Being too serious can be suffocating
There are good things in life,
There are things to be grateful for
Someone please tell me
I need someone to remind me
Through trickery, we act like we're free
We pretend to be free, but we're not
Through trickery, we act like we're smart
We pretend to be smart, but we're not
If we deceive ourselves too much,
If we pretend for too long
