Miss Hiroko explained the “kuchi ga sakete mo” bit: apparently this is a phrase that means something like “my mouth is shut, and even if you cut it open (as in, like, slicing my cheeks open) I still won’t say it”. There is a legendary Japanese type of ghost called “kuchisake onna” which is a woman with her mouth all cut open on both sides and blood dripping all over who shows up and goes, “DO YOU THINK I’M PRETTY!?!?”. So, now you can have some new nightmares with that one. Cheers!

Mirrorball

Look, now she’ll start crying
Little Hiroai is always like that
Next she’ll call for her mama
Little Hiromi is always so mean

The voice yelling “apologize”
This is not something to cry about
“A kid with a bad attitude”, I’m sorry
Is something I’ll never say, even if you cut my mouth open

Swinging on the swing, as hard as you can, come on and swing, fly away to some far-off, unknown place

In a park with no one around
I can hear someone playing piano
On my way home with no one around
I start dancing round and round

“Apologize”, that voice again
This is not something to cry about
“An un-cute kid”, I’m sorry
Is something I’ll never say til the day I die

Close your eyes, you can go anywhere, fly away to where no one can follow you

While you are singing, nothing can scare you, yes, take me to that place

Even though if I say “sorry”, tomorrow we’d be good friends again…

ミラーボール

ほらね 今にね 泣き出すよ
ひろあいちゃんて いつもそうなんだ
そのうち ママを 呼ぶはずよ
ひろみちゃんてば いつもずるいの

「謝りなさい」 どなる声
こんなことで泣いたりしない
「イジの悪い子」 ごめんなんか
口が裂けても言うもんか

ブランコこいで 思いきり こいでおいで 遠くのしらないとこまで飛んでゆけ

だぁれもいない 公園にね
誰かのピアノが きこえるよ
だぁれもいない 帰りみち
ぐるぐるまわる 踊りだすよ

「謝りなさい」 またあの声
こんなことで泣いたりしない
「かわいくない子」 ごめんねなんか
死んだって言うもんか

目をつむるよ どこへでも いけるんだから 誰もおいつけないとこまで飛んでゆけ

うたいながらで なんにも こわくないよ そうだこないだのあそこまで連れてって

ごめんねすれば また明日も 仲良しこよしなのにね
