tonai ekiin wa taido warui

lyrics/composition: Yuriko

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes, don’t you think?
JR! JR! JR! 1

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Everyone, please say it with me:
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Do you happen to know anything about this?
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Everyone, please say it with me:
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Rude, sighing, unresponsive XX!

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
The gate attendant at ‘Bukuro East Exit2
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Kawamura with the nose hair at Shinjuku West Exit
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
The Midori no Madoguchi attendant with the hickey
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Rude sighing hickey-covered fuckers

For example, what’s the meaning of this?
A disgruntled-looking station attendant
Snatched up my admission fee in a single second
Get fired, get fired
Lose your job and become homeless3!

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Please give me 10 billion as an apology!
Extend the line to my house!
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Lower their net income, cut their wages
And please give me a train!

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes, don’t you think?
JR! JR! JR! 1

Listless rude four eyes
Sighing old man with nose hair
The female attendant with the hickey
Demote them, demote them
You guys are demoted to cleaning toilets!

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Stop the train until I get on!
Please let me ride the women’s car!
Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes
Let me ride for free! I’ll be the only one who can use his face card
And please give me my own station!

Tokyo station attendants have bad attitudes, don’t you think?
JR! JR! JR! 1


1 JR as in Japan Rail. Censored in the lyrics.

2 The names of the people and stations are censored in the lyrics, so I tried to catch these by ear.

3 “Homeless” is also censored in the lyrics.

There are like 20 different short spoken skits? parts? not in the lyrics but rest assured that they are all about how shitty station attendants are, that they need to reform or risk being sued, and how they will not be forgiven.
