Easy Like That
We Really Miss Our Cats
Easy like that
Let’s not forget our hats
Easy like that
Walking forward and back
Easy like that
We’re gonna get so fat
Easy like that
Going to Kyoto
Taking lots of photos
Wearing a kimono
Watching Ghibli’s Ponyo
Listening to Kyary Pamyu Pamyu
Easy Like That
We Won’t Forget Our Hat
Easy Like That
We’ll eat enough to get fat
I like the food here
I wanna see the monkeys
I wanna wear a kimono
I like eating soba

Gojozaka
it’s nothing special to me
but Ichikawaya cafe is tasty
Toasted egg sandwich
Seasonal fruit
Umamachi coffee
it’s all good
Gojozaka
you did all that you could
first night in kyoto, the night felt so cool
I didn’t realize the truth then
but you really did us good
gojozaka
we’ll never forget you
(instrumental)
When we come see you again
We’ll make it really count
In the Japanese way we have to say Arigato go ja ee mas

Arashiyma, j’aime trop fort Hana (ahhhh ahahahaha ahhh h)
Riverside / Aradshiyama
It’s not too much to count on
I / Like the nature
And there were also monkeys there
Hey / Arashiyama
You’re pretty cool
So I sing
And I / liked you the best
I’m glad I could see you more often
Next time / we meet again
Let’s get lost in the forest
Hey / Arashiyama
You’re pretty cool
So I sing again
There was a bridge
It was so photogenic
We took so many photos
But we couldn’t take enough OH (chorus)

Monkey Park Iwatayama

I went to monkey park
Looking for a job
But they only had banana snacks
And u know I’ve got an allergy
At monkey park there were baby monkeys
Clinging to their moms
I thought I’d take one by the hand
But the monkey tore off my jaw
Monkey Park is beautiful
At night night you can see the stars
Daytime has the city view
And
Monkeys got the drop
Monkeys fighting in the trees
The handlers won’t get to me
They’re much too fast to be taken down
I think I want some more around
I went to monkey park
It was pretty spectacular
I didn’t get a job
But I made some memories
I went to monkey park (I went to monkey park)
I saw all the monkeys (I saw all the moneys)
I wanna join them one day (I wanna join them one day)
But maybe not today

Bamboo forest! Bamboo forest! Gonna take a photo of my girl
Bamboo forest! Bamboo forest! 100 more and haven’t had our fill
Woah oh oh woah oh oh woah oh oh
In Arashiyama, it’ll make u sing
Nothing like you’ve ever before seen
It’s dense and shaded, what a great scene
So you’ve gotta follow our recommendating
Let me tell u about it
Bamboo forest! Bamboo forest! Got there early if you want a thrill
Bamboo forest! Bamboo forest! Any later and u won’t be chill
Woah oh oh woah oh oh woah oh oh
It’s right next to Tenryuji Temple
Of Kyoto’s nature, it’s a great sample
Why not go there, it’s worth the gamble
So you’ve gotta follow example!
Let me tell u bout it!

I was disappointed at Okochosanso
The bill was pretty pricey but the path was so slow
Oh I didn’t get what’s so great about this place but I think I’m gonna lose it
At Okochinsanso Garden
At Okochisanso Garden
I lost all the things I really wanted
The green tea was nice but not warranted
Moss on the ground, it’s pretty but I think I wanna go now
I’d rather turn back but I don’t wanna break the flow
You’re having so much fun, Hana, I promise not to steal the show
Oh I didn’t get what’s so great about this place but I think I’m gonna lose it
Oh ko chi san so
I wanna tell u what I know
Not many people so that’s a pro
And anyway I’m with u and that’s acceptable
I read the reviews and I guess I accept that it’s special
To be at Okochisanso
Avec toi

Kiyomuzudera
Tourist trap is there, I
liked it even better
when you were in my head, ah
why so many people
it’s hard to find your feet there
Oh, it would be better
to visit somewhere else and
why is it so famous
ashamed to be a tourist
I made this melody
long before I went to
Kyimizudra x10
Kiyiomizudera
Sweat running down our
faces, backs and arms, and
need some ice cold soba
it’s a little hot to
take a photo of you, Hana
you’re feeling ready
time to head off to
Kyimizudra x10

Sannaenzaka, I want it
Ninnaenzaka, I need it
Yasakanote, also
Oh, Hana wanted to go
It’s just a big commercial street
Just like Jeonju, Korea
It wasn’t such a bad view
Construction was there to make it good as new
And the morning went by so fast
Hadn’t even had breakfast
Got lost finding a shrine
But that’s okay, it’s not our last time

On est alles a NANJENJI
C’est vrai
Il y avait un AQUEDUC

Je boudais tout le temps
C’est vrai
Je n’avais pas raison
C’est vrai
Je devais écouter Hana
Quand meme elle me faisait nyanyanya
On est allées a NANZENJI
Elle voulait de la photographie
Je ne savais ce qu’on devait faire
A cause de ca, j’avais l’air
Mechant
Enfant

Murinan
A perfect garden from heaven
It deserves a song
The money was well spent oh and
Murinan
It’s a break from the heat of the day
We needed a break! So we went to Murinan
It wasn’t so fake! It was manicured perfectly
Surrounding a lake! Peace and quiet at this place
The price wasn’t a waste
We needed a taste oh we needed a taste!

I sang you 'bout the FamilyMart
I sang you 'bout my garden
But there's something I didn't
Didn't tell you something
Oh Nishiki Sijang
You're famous for fresh fish
So many people go there
It's #1 on their list!
So if you're feeling hungry
And want an experience
You should take a walk out there and check out some dish

Met Mitsukuni
and Geunnae too
we had a lot of fun
but we almost puked
I’d like to meet you again
when the time is right
but maybe next time let’s not drink until we die
Oh Gion!
Gion
J’ai bu jusqu’a la mort
Oh Gion
Maintenant je suis une phantome
A Gion
Wandering the streets alone
Oh je suis allé a Gion
There’s so much to do in
Gion
Take a walk by Shirakawa
The canal so famous I just sat drinking a coffee
We’re near the end of the song now
Bye

Kawaramachi, you have everything
If not for the shopping, for sure you’d be king
I thought your katsudon was pretty alright
It’s just a shame that on our last night
We had no money and that was a fright
Kawaramachi, I’d been there before
We walked so much that our feet felt so sore
I like how you kept us cool from the sun
It felt like we needed something like that for fun
I thought this song would be shorter than this
But it turns out I had a lot more to say than just diss
If you think I did you wrong, let’s clear it up now
I’m ready to talk it out if you just tell me how
Oh Kawaramachi, I liked you so much
I wanted to spend more money but it turned out to be tough
You gave use a nice memory, something not so rough
A little way to take a break, it was worth it so much
Go men a sayi, daisiteru
