Sensei 02:08
I used to meet you at jazz bars where you played your double bass I drank soda and lime You were very thin, therefore I was very thin You were beautiful You taught music theory I was the best student in the class But it was a coincidence It wasn't because of you It wasn't because of you I was so beautiful I used to meet you at jazz bars where you played your double bass I drank soda and lime You were very thin, therefore I was very thin You were beautiful

Pocchari 03:02
I like food Orange juice and chocolate But just for once I want to be a thin woman Beef and chicken and eggs Pork and fish and lamb I can eat all of these but just for once I want to be a beautiful woman Fat, fat, fat since high school I, I, am only occasionally thin For once I want to meet a beautiful man For once I want to meet a beautiful man How can I become thin for good? How can I become thin for good? I like food Cake and pizza and Bolognese But just for once I want to be a thin woman Fat, fat, fat since high school I, I, am only occasionally thin Fat, fat, fat since high school I, I, am forever fat

Chabi-chan 01:56
I have a cat, I think he's a real cat but my mother puts him in the bag all the time your name is Chabichan, I bought you when I was 18 your name is Chabichan, I once took you to Tokyo My cat is orange and white I'm most careful, what would I do if I lost him? But in the middle of the night Chabichan goes out alone I saw him once when I was outside I have a cat, I think he's a real cat your whiskers are so cute, Chabichan is a real cat Chabichan
