Night Shift Incident Lyrics Translation – Liza
The songwriter mentions ‘circling melody across broken police lines’ to describe entrapment. Liza brings a desperate plea for ‘just one tomorrow’ that echoes through the night. The poet writes about ‘flickering records and a liminal part-time job’, creating vivid imagery of a lost world.
Saigo no saigo ni omamori kudasai kamisamaAt the very end, please give me a lucky charm, God.
Meguru merodii uketori togireta kiseisenI take in the circling melody across the broken police lines.
Watashi ga konya kyouhanshaI’m the accomplice tonight.
Hitotsu ashita wo choudai naGive me just one tomorrow.
Sawagu mune no oku myakuhaku kasoku shitekuDeep in my pounding chest, my pulse keeps racing faster.
Okyakusama mata konbanwaGood evening again, dear customer.
Gomen ne ashita wa mou nai naI’m sorry, but there’s no tomorrow left for you.
Kizamitsukeru yoru chikutaku kasoku shitekuThe night carves its mark as the ticking clock speeds up.
Irasshaimase okyakusama no sasoiWelcome, it’s the customer’s invitation.
Sukimakaze kanaderu rarabaiA lullaby played by the draft through the cracks.
Shinjitsu wa furikkaa noizu fukakaiThe truth is a flickering noise, so mysterious.
Kochira otsuri desu mata okoshi kudasaiHere’s your change, please come again.
Zaiko gire no mirai kara mibaraiIt’s an unpaid debt from a future that’s out of stock.
Shouhi kigen gire desu iranaiThe expiration date has passed, so I don’t need it.
Tabun mata yakin jikenIt’s probably another night shift incident.
Samayou kehai nukedasenai sekaiA wandering presence in a world I can’t escape.
Taguriyoseru sonzai shinai shikaiReeling in a vision that doesn’t exist.
Nandome no yakin jikenHow many night shift incidents has it been?
Hitotsu kudasaiPlease, give me one.
KudasaiPlease.
KudasaiPlease.
KudasaiPlease.
KudasaiPlease.
Watashi ga konya kyouhanshaI’m the accomplice tonight.
Hitotsu ashita wo choudai naGive me just one tomorrow.
Sawagu mune no oku myakuhaku kasoku shitekuDeep in my pounding chest, my pulse keeps racing faster.
Okyakusama mata konbanwaGood evening again, dear customer.
Gomen ne ashita wa mou nai naI’m sorry, but there’s no tomorrow left for you.
Kizamitsukeru yoru chikutaku kasoku shitekuThe night carves its mark as the ticking clock speeds up.
Kore shika nakatta no neThis was the only way left, wasn’t it?
Chiratsuku kiroku to riminaru arubaitoFlickering records and a ‘liminal’ part-time job.
Anata mo kyouhanshaYou’re an accomplice too.
Chiratsuku kiroku to riminaru arubaitoFlickering records and a ‘liminal’ part-time job.
Nandome no yakin jikenHow many times has this night shift incident happened?
Mite minai furi de ubau miraiStealing the future while pretending not to see.
Zankoku dakedo kaesenai mitaiIt’s cruel, but I don’t think I can give it back.
Saigo no saigo ni omamori kudasai kamisamaAt the very end, please give me a lucky charm, God.
Meguru merodii uketori togireta kiseisenI take in the circling melody across the broken police lines.
Watashi ga konya kyouhanshaI’m the accomplice tonight.
Hitotsu ashita wo choudai naGive me just one tomorrow.
Sawagu mune no oku myakuhaku kasoku shitekuDeep in my pounding chest, my pulse keeps racing faster.
