[Lyrics]
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I made a phone call.
“Do they have any eggs?” She asked.
“Nothing,” I replied.
“What should we do?” She asked.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I pointed to a map and said,
“How about here?”
[Chorus 1]
Rising prices,
Things we can’t get.
Things essential for daily meals.
[Verse 2]
The cost of chicken feed is soaring.
No eggs to sell,
We can buy meat.
It’s strange.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Are they eating them before they lay eggs?
So they’re young chickens.
[Chorus 2]
Rising prices,
Things we can’t get.
Things essential for daily meals.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
We drove for 30 minutes.
And found one right away.
An old woman was there.
Eggs were all 400 yen.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I said, “What do you think?”
She replied, “We have no choice but to buy them.”
[Chorus 3]
Rising prices,
Things we can’t get.
Things essential for daily meals.
[Bridge]
She said, “Her name is Koba.”
I said, “So Koba’s eggs.”
She asked, “Are they tasty?”
I replied, “We’ll have to try them.”
[Final Chorus]
Rising prices,
Things we can’t get.
Things essential for daily meals.
