Koneko Meaning & Lyrics (Liana Flores | Mei Semones)
The lyricist mentions a green parakeet and a black swan, creating a whimsical, almost surreal atmosphere. One line stands out: ‘The king will never own the swans, they own themselves.’ This phrase quietly champions freedom and independence. The musicians weave together images of strawberries, tea, and a sharp-toothed kitten, blending sweetness with a hint of mischief.
