ばかやろう節
eastern youth Lyrics

The lyrics to eastern youth's song "Baka Yarou Bushi" depict a sense of defiance and resilience in the face of adversity. The singer finds themselves on a small bridge, rejecting the surrounding landscape like a lingering sunset reflecting off illegal waste. They tilt their head, sway their feet, and close their eyes, ensuring their own unique way of confirming the world's existence. In their perspective, nothing could be sadder than the idea of sadness itself, and they have always lived by that belief. However, their fight is constant, as their inner struggles always bubble up from the depths of their heart, pushing them to the edge of a cliff and cornering them, urging them to give up on life itself. Despite pouting and seeking help, nobody turns around to acknowledge them. Even if they pretend to be dead or pretend to be alive, the truth remains unchanged. Loneliness, which may seem rare, has gotten them this far, and their fight is always lurking, waiting for them in the depths of a filthy river or ambushing them in alleyways. They have been beaten down and called a fool, pulled to the ground, left isolated and wounded, but they have survived and arrived at this point. And from here on, they will continue to live, rejecting the landscape like a lingering sunset reflecting off illegal waste on a small bridge.
