lyrics

おさむらいやさん 腹を切りやさん
意地張るんなら 他所でやっとくれ
ここは俺の家 ばあちゃんの縁側
おまえの血など 誰も見たくない

命をかける 価値のあるものなんて あると思うのかい
主義も主張も今日のこの日にくらべたら

さむらわない 俺の武士道
野にありて 花も実も生きてこそ
さむらわない 散るなら黙って散れ
アピってんじゃねえ
さむらうことなかれわが友よ

おさむらいやさん 自慰行為やさん
演説ごっこなら 他所でやっとくれ
ここは皆の家 銭湯の大風呂
おまえの裸なぞ 誰も見たくない

命をかける 価値があると 信じたいのかい
主義も主張もコンプレックスの裏返しじゃねえのか

さむらわない 俺の信仰
世にありて 涙にまみれてこそ
さむらわない 死ぬなら笑って死ね
酔ってんじゃねえ
さむらうことなかれわが友よ

愛されないやつは 知らずと愛を憎む
満たされないやつは 知らずと夢を求める
夢を見たいやつは 好きに見ればいい
だが人を付き合わすんじゃねえ
こちとら現実を生きるのに精一杯なんだからなあ
ああ早くおまえら、早く人間になってくれ

「さむらわないー!」

本当に命をかける 価値のあるものなんて あるとするならば
主義も主張も皆の笑顔にくらべたら

さむらわない 俺の武士道
野にありて 人として生きてこそ
さむらわない 散るなら黙って散れ
アピってんじゃねえ
さむらうことなかれわが友よ 過つことなかれわが友よ
サムライーーーー、サムラワナイーーーーー


-Lyrics English Translation


Hey you Samurai imposter
Harakiri pretender
Sing about your justice somewhere else
It’s my home here
Grandma’s porch
No one wants to see you bleed

Do you think there really is something worth your life?
All your principle and ideology
When compared to this sunny day

I won’t do Samurai
That’s my Bushido
In the free world you should live and bear fruit
I won’t do Samurai
When you die, you should do it silently
Don’t seek for attention
Don’t be a Samurai, my friend

Hey you Samurai imposter
Masturbating poser
Bring your politics game somewhere else
It’s people’s home here
A big bathtub of public Sento
No one wants to see you naked

Do you want to believe it is worth your life?
All your principle and ideology
Coming from your inferior complexes

I won’t do Samurai
That’s my faith
In this free world you should live and shed tears
I won’t do Samurai
When you die, you should do it with a smile
Don’t get drunk with your own words
Don’t be a Samurai, my friend

Those who not loved, will hate love without knowing it
Those who not satisfied, will seek fantasy without knowing it
If you want fantasies, go and get anything you like
But don’t push them on other people
Because we are busy dealing with reality
I’m hoping for the day you will evolve into a human being

Don’t be a Samurai!

If there really is something worth your life
All your principle and ideology
Compared to people’s smiling faces

I won’t do Samurai
In the free world we live as humans
I won’t do Samurai
When you face your death, you should do it silently
Don’t seek for attention
Don’t be a Samurai, my friend
Don’t make a wrong decision, my friend

Samurai doesn’t do Samurai for nothing!
