I'M NEVER SATISFIED
gozen sanji no TV SHOW
sagesumu kuchibiru kara wa SEX APPEAL
(BITCH)
mikakedaoshi no HYPER LADY
I'M NEVER SATISFIED
kinyou no asa made nya kieusero!
mayonakasugi no CINDERELLA yo...
GLASS no kutsu wa mou iranai
ELITE kidori no PINOCCHIO no hana wa
orete hia ni naru
tokeishikake no DNA
MANEQUIN domo no BABBLE wa 9 to 5
imaimashiku moekuruu taiyou wo
hikizuri orose

LIMOUSINE ni hi wo tsukero
when the clock struck at midnight
the coach turned into a pumpkin and
the dress became a rug!
and only a glass slipper was left behind
suddenly Cinderella crushed it and
she kicked her fuckin' onld stepmother out

The lyrics of X JAPAN's song Celebration describe a desire for more and an unquenchable thirst for wild experiences. The song creates an image of a person who is never satisfied with what they have and is always in search of something new and exciting. They are willing to throw caution to the wind and take risks to achieve their goals. The lyrics are filled with references to pop culture, such as "gozen sanji no TV SHOW," which roughly translates to "a TV show at 3 AM," and "ELITE kidori no PINOCCHIO no hana," which could refer to the concept of the "perfect" person who is actually a fake, like Pinocchio.
The song speaks to the idea of rebellion against societal expectations and norms. Cinderella is referenced as a symbol of the traditional narrative of what women are expected to do and be, but the song suggests that Cinderella can break free and create her own destiny. The song encourages the listener to throw away their doubts and worries and embrace life to the fullest, with lines like "THROW AWAY! SAIL AWAY SHOUT IT OUT! SHOW IT OUT!" and "STAND UP! REVOLUTION." The overall message of the song is to celebrate life and all its possibilities.
