Versuri ShiRiToRi
(Konishi)
Translators: Andrei Cunha
Translator's introduction:
shiritori is a japanese game. the first player
says a word, the second player must say a word
beginning with the last character (syllable) of
the first player's word, the third player must say
a word beginning with the last character of the
second player's word... and so on. the players are
not supposed to say the same word twice.
this track consists of two shiritori matches: the
first one features maki-chan and the two kids from
ugo-ugo lhuga. the second one features other
characters from the programme.
ugo-ugo lhuga was a programme for kids, now
discontinued. it had a cutting edge quality to it
that assured it became a legend among kids and
adults who watched it. it often featured very
surrealistic sketches. some of the crazyness of
the programme was immortalised in this pizzicato
album, especially this track, shiritori shimasho.
(Editor's Note: Although theoretically for kids,
the show's title is the phrase Go-Go-u Ga--Ru
pronounced backwards, a go go girl being slang for
the kind of party-all-night young lady so often
sung about in P5 songs. This was a hint that the
show was also aimed at the hip young party-goer
returning home at the break of dawn, having just
caught the first train out of Tokyo. The animated
title sequence, indeed, featured a Godzilla-size
party girl rampaging through the streets, only to
be felled by three young boy superheroes. Other
signs of the show's hipness: background posters
featuring such bands as Big Drill Car, and
others.)
it was very difficult to translate this track
because a lot of the humour and irony of the
original just wouldn't work in english. after i
had finished the translation and re-read it, i
realised it sort of reminded me of the tea party
with the mad hatter from alice in wonderland (and
i certainly used much of its language as a model
for the translation, unconsciously) -- all those
people playing this game in a completely
subversive manner, going really crazy about it,
but acting as if everything had strict rules which
should be properly observed. the dialogue is
absurd, but everybody is so serious about what
they are doing one forgets they are not actually
making any sense.
my favourite line is 'oyamada keigo? otona?
hito?'
hope you like it

oyamada keigo (cornelius)

i gather
you are quite fond of
of lemon tea
you could say i am yes.
chodai ends with an i
so
ikuko-chan ga hai (ikuko-chan is...)
ikuko-chan is an
acquaintance
of mine.
she's very cute.
i?
inu no mawari-san no koinu
(the puppy that belongs to
the policeman with a dog)

he actually has one?
he does too.
nu?
this is supposed to be a shiritori
strictly for grownups right?
yep.
this is strictly
for grownups.
ok so nu it is.
nureteru ne (it's so wet!)
this is just
a general remark.
i don't mean anything by that.
it's just... for the atmosphere.
yeah i know. the atmosphere.
it's so wet!
this is
a shiritori
strictly for grownups.
i wonder what he meant by wet!

jaketo mo
suteki kamoshirenai!
(i wonder what a jacket
with beads
would do for me)
no! not i again!
i just said that because
this is a shiritori for grownups.
well my answer goes almost without saying.
inu no mawari-san no otona no shiritori!
