ROSIE
The Roosters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rosie おしえて Rosie
何が欲しい おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie
ロックンロールに 酔いまくり
すべてに激しく やりたがる
いらいらばかりが
おまえを包み
クスリに酔いしれる
Rosie おしえて Rosie
何が欲しい おしえて Rosie
What do you gonna do
Please tell me Rosie
週末になればダンスに夢中
場末のホールにいりびたり
いかすヒロイン演じたあとは
つかれ知らずの男あさり
Rosie おしえて Rosie
何が欲しい おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie

Rosie おしえて Rosie
何が欲しい おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie
カラッポ頭にレゲエ・ソング
明るい日射しを あびたがり
うつろに空を見つめて
ただただ体ゆらす
Rosie おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie
What do you wanna do
What do you ganna do ......
Rosie おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie
What do you wanna do
What do you ganna do ......
Rosie おしえて Rosie
What do you wanna do
Please tell me Rosie




What do you wanna do
What do you ganna do ......

Overall Meaning

The song Rosie by The Roosters is a Japanese rock 'n' roll song that talks about the free-spirited and wild lifestyle of a girl named Rosie. The chorus of the song repeatedly asks Rosie, "What do you wanna do? Please tell me Rosie," suggesting that she is unpredictable and always looking for a good time. The lyrics further describe Rosie's love for rock 'n' roll and her desire to live life fully, accompanied by the repetitious phrase "Rosie oshiete," which translates to "Tell me Rosie."


The verse discusses Rosie's impatience or restlessness shown by the line, "All wrapped up in frustration," which indicates that she is seeking some kind of escape. Additionally, the verse mentions Rosie's love for dancing, which she's incredibly passionate about during weekends, often attending nightclubs and performing on stage as the leading lady. The notion of Rosie being a hero or a leading lady ties into her carefree attitude, with the line "After acting as my hero, then you're off to seek some guy," which indicates that she might have a promiscuous personality.


Overall, "Rosie" is a song reminiscent of the rock 'n' roll scene in the 1950s and 1960s, which started in the US and quickly spread to Japan. The Rooster's song captures the spirit of the era with its frantic guitar solos and fast-paced drums, and its portrayal of Rosie's wild and unpredictable lifestyle.

小さい頃家族でドライブに行くと
父が必ずかけてました。
現在20歳の私は
fool for youとこの曲が特に
好きで覚えてました。
久しぶりに父と聞いた時に
ぱぱが初めて行ったライブが

教えてくれました。
こういう会話をさせてくれた
ザ・ルースターズさんに
