If there is a word that you are not familiar with in this song, likely it is the name of a type of fish. For those who aren't sushi eaters or just don't know much about it, "toro" is the word in the sushi world that's used to describe tuna meat. There are also two words used to describe the grade (level of fatiness) of the tuna meat: chuutoro and ootoro. These are basically equivalent to saying "mid-grade toro" and "high-grade toro", respectively. |
Hey, welcome!
The toro is chuutoro, shad, horse mackerel
(Hey, welcome)
Conger eel, sweet shrimp, soused mackerel, sea bass
(Hey, welcome)
Scallops, do you see abalone in the red clam?
(Hey, welcome)
Bonito, kanpachi, sea urchin, salmon roe
(Hey, welcome)
This sushi place is the best in Japan
I'm not gonna eat sushi, I'm not gonna eat sushi, I'm not gonna eat sushi!
Fresh green tea, fresh green tea, fresh green tea, I'm selfish
An octopus' head is a perfect circle (Hey, welcome)
The triangular one is the squid's ear (Hey, welcome)
A seaweed with kids is in love with a snapper (Hey, welcome)
A halibut's veranda, a musubi on the brink (Hey, welcome)
This sushi place is the best in Japan
I'm not gonna eat sushi, I'm not gonna eat sushi, I'm not gonna eat sushi!
Fresh green tea, fresh green tea, fresh green tea, I'm selfish
My girlfriend loves herring roe
I'm not downhearted, love is a norimaki
Tiny tears like a small pillar
Please don't cry, I'll give you a kiss
Fresh green tea!
I'm so hungry that I'm angry (Hey, sorry for the wait)
Will the next one be egg? Will it be negitoro? (Hey, sorry for the wait)
I'm not anyone suspicious, but (Hey, sorry for the wait)
I can't stop suddenly sneezing (Hey, sorry for the wait)
When you pass through the curtain at the entrance, it's paradise
Hurrah! Sushi is the pride of Japan
Even if my cheeks fell off, I wouldn't know
Cheers! My stomach will soon be full
Fresh green tea!
When I eat takuwan it gets stuck in my teeth (Hey, here's a toothpick)
I put on too much wasabi, so I slurp my tea (Hot, hot hot)
When I eat plum rolls do my teeth turn black? (Hey, here's a wet towel)
In the end I readily go for clam sweat (Slurp, slurp)
This sushi place is the best in Japan
I'm not gonna eat sushi, I'm not gonna eat sushi
Hey old guy, how much!?
Courtesy, courtesy, courtesy
Courtesy, courtesy
Courtesy, courtesy, courtesy
Courtesy, courtesy, courtesy
Thanks!
