PRINCESS PRINCESS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ハンカチ用意して
ヒロインも泣いてる
オーケストラのボリューム
マキシマムで
甘えたいのに さ・い・て・い
いつもの迷路を歩いて
(just walkin', just walkin')
(NO-NO-NO)
なんとなく (うじうじして)
きれい事 (ぐずぐずして)
いい加減 (イライラハート)
卒業してくれる？
あんまりじゃない My only boy
(don't you want me)
冗談じゃない Too much shy
(I just say) NO,NO,NO
どうやら気付いた様ね
２日も行方不明
そろそろあせりだす頃
見慣れない指輪を
クルクルまわして
いちかばちかの 切り札
誰よりあなたが大好き
(yes darling, yes darling)
誰より知ってるハズでしょう？
(NO-NO)
タイミング (うじうじして)
はずすなら (ぐずぐずして)
いい加減 (イライラハート)
覚悟を決めるわよ
あんまりじゃない My only boy

The lyrics of PRINCESS PRINCESS's song 冗談じゃない speak of a girl who is asking her boyfriend why he sleeps while he spends time with her. She is trying to be affectionate, but her boyfriend is tired and does not seem to reciprocate her feelings. Even though she wants to be pampered and receive a kiss, their outings often end without any physical contact. She feels uneasy about the relationship and wonders if her boyfriend really loves her as much as she loves him. The girl is frustrated and upset about his lack of commitment; she wants to graduate from this difficult situation and find someone who appreciates her love.
Through the lyrics, we can see the complexity of a relationship, where one person's feelings may not be reciprocated to the same extent. The girl, through her words, is trying to express her love and her emotional needs, and is requesting her boyfriend to reciprocate her feelings. However, the boyfriend seems to be distant and indifferent, and the girl is left feeling hurt and confused.
The song's title, 冗談じゃない, translates to "no joke" or "seriously," indicating the seriousness of the situation that the girl is facing. The lyrics also touch on themes of uncertainty, desperation, and unrequited love, making it relatable for many who have experienced similar emotions.
