Calligraphy / 書道 English Lyrics Translation

ENGLISH

Calligraphy

I put ink on my brush, if I put on too much a bit drops off
And I write on paper, on this beautiful morning
My grandma is good at calligraphy and she's won prizes
I'll write that on my resume, on my resume
Beautiful morning
Bright future
Cheerful children
Big heart
First sunrise of the year
First bonito fish of the season
Dancing bonito
Minced bonito
Horse makerel sashimi
My wallet...

JAPANESE

書道

筆に墨をつける つけすぎたら少しおとす
そして半紙に字を書く 美しい朝
おばあちゃんは書道が 上手くて賞もとってる
それを履歴書に書く 僕の履歴書に
美しい朝
明るい未来
元気な子供
広い心
初日の出
初鰹
踊り鰹
鰹のたたき
鯵のお刺身

ワシのお財布...

OPINION

The lyrics to the hidden track from RAY! Awesome! My friend Cody at Japan Jukebox found the Japanese lyrics online for me, thanks a ton! :D The song is only about a minute long but it's really entertaining. Why all the fish / food stuff at the end? I do not know haha. Anyway, enjoy!
