Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Utada Hikaru's song "Boku wa Kuma" is a cute and playful ode to a bear. The repeated phrase "Boku wa kuma kuma kuma kuma" means "I am a bear, bear, bear, bear," followed by the statement "I'm not a car, bear, bear, bear," which is a clever play on words (kuruma means car in Japanese). The lyrics go on to describe the bear's inability to walk properly, but its ability to dance and sing. The bear also doesn't like to fight and prefers shrimp fried rice as its favorite food.


The use of French in the song adds to the playful nature, as the bear introduces itself with "Bonjour! Je m'appelle kuma. Comment ça va?". The chorus again repeats the bear's identity, with the addition of "kuku" which can be interpreted as the bear making a chuckling noise. The lyrics end with a reference to the bear's mother, who is also a bear.


Overall, "Boku wa Kuma" is a fun and lighthearted song that celebrates the unique characteristics of a bear.
