Katamari on the Symphony (from "Katamari Damacy")

Thomas Kresge

5 minutes • January 18, 2019

My, Earth really is full of things. So many singers. So many musicians. So much music that we have to just put it all together in one big Katamari anthem. The verses have been translated from their original Japanese.

Lyrics

Don’t worry, do your best
Picnic kibun, feel so good
Suteki na afternoon
Furachi na midnight, yeah

Katamete korogasu I love you, oh, I’ll always smile for you
You’re my one and only Love Moon, hey, so you’ve got to do your best
Compression, compression

Osoroi no t-shirts-u
Teami no muffler nado
Heart-warming mejiro oshi
Hitare etsu! Say goodbye!

Keep it rolling forward, we’ll clump together—give it all you got
On a day like this we can dance and sing, but remember who’s in charge:
It’s my way, it’s my way

Peace na kibun, yoi shirete
Kagayaki heaven akogarete
Sutekisa sono atama
Mou omatsuri sawagisa

As we dance and clump and roll it’s like a big, hot band blowing its load of color all over us
If you’re asking why I do this, I just want to party, rolling on through the day
Katamatte katamatte
