lyrics

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION]
Today when I came home,
there was a good smell in the air.
What could it have been? Smelling so delicious…
It was something that you made.
Was it champuruu? Was it Irichii? Or was it Okinawa soba?
But the thing is, I just had a lot to eat!

[CHORUS:]
What do I do? I want to eat that.
But the thing is, I’m already full.
What do I do? I want to eat that.
What do I do? What a dilemma.

“Eat! eat!” is what I’m told,
So I know it’s better if I do.
And with this aroma, without looking,
I can tell it’s really good
Was it jiimaami doofu? Was it duruwakaashii? Or was it saataa andagii?
But the thing is, I just had a lot to eat!
[chours]
They say “the hungrier you are, the better it tastes”, but I wonder if I can wait til I’m hungry.
[chorus]
