[Verse 1]
Simply put, I’m not earning any money,
So I’m basically “living a life of leisure.”
Since all that’s left is to die,
There’s no need to study hard.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And no work I’m required to do.
I’m just frittering away my time.
[Chorus 1]
Let’s take it easy without overthinking things;
There’s nothing complicated about it.
If you keep living,
Fun things are bound to happen eventually.
[Verse 2]
Living a life goes “Farming in the sun and reading in the rain”
Well, total self- sufficiency is pretty much impossible:
Managing to produce just a little bit of my own food
Is the best I can do.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
In fact, it’s often more efficient to work at the library for 1000 yen an hour and buy the food instead.
[Chorus 2]
Let’s take it easy without overthinking things;
There’s nothing complicated about it.
If you keep living,
Fun things are bound to happen eventually.
[Verse 3]
People do listen to the songs I compose,
But they don’t sell at all,
And promotional efforts have no effect.
I’ve written English lyrics for over 500 songs on my website.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
But search engines ignore them, so they don’t show up in results,
Meaning no one even knows they exist.
[Chorus 3]
Let’s take it easy without overthinking things;
There’s nothing complicated about it.
If you keep living,
Fun things are bound to happen eventually.
[Bridge]
I bought a pack of five Peruvian avocados for 120 yen.
When I looked up why they were so cheap,
I found news reports about cadmium contamination in Peruvian avocados.
But the real reason they were cheap? They’re simply in season.
[Final Chorus]
Let’s take it easy without overthinking things;
There’s nothing complicated about it.
If you keep living,
Fun things are bound to happen eventually.
