猫リセット

始める数秒前のメンテ

頭は重いし　毛は逆立った

どうしてもチグハグだった　からだは

どうやって　狩場へ繰り出そうか

自分の存在定期的に

猫リセットできたら潔いのにな

信じても　自信が弱った

お使い業務定期　履歴の交渉

波形を見つめてるだけで過ぎてく　歩道橋の匂い

きっとやつにはわからないからこそ　価値がある

カートの中眠る　4,5千円のヘッドフォン

もっと期待したいし

この性格じゃどうやって

考えない　勘変えないようにしたいけど

引き分け業務　繰り返してる時はさ

甘い甘い散らかって　吐いて　最後虚しかったんだ

違う違う　ただ僕に合う長所　選んでいいかな

回線落ち→乗り過ごし　のけぞった爪で連打した

連れてって　ずれてって　生き返ることはないのに

敵でも味方でもない　互いのたちば無理して

返答に時間がかかって　きりがないのにさ

ギターの弦費　食費　交通費

喉仏　行き場のない米と涙ぶつかる

いずれは価値になる？　そう言い聞かせ眠る

君にも嘘をつこう

もっと期待し大志

この正確じゃどうやって

考えない　勘変えないようにしたいけど

引き分け業務　繰り返してる時はさ

甘い甘い散らかって　吐いて　最後虚しかったんだ

違う違う　ただ僕に合う長所　選んでいいかな

ぁぁ何してんだろう　暇は敵だなぁぁ

経験値　シフト出し

気遣って書いた言葉じゃさ

「誰にも会えないもんね」

なんていつになったら治まる？

偽ったって消えないんだもう

でもやっぱ　期待したいし

手順も受け答えも

生き急いでも　しょうがないね

勝ち負け業務　折り合いつけるまでは

甘い甘い散らかって　掃いて　最後笑っていいから

黙ってな　鈍い僕に合う情緒　選びたいから

Cat-reset

The first few seconds' maintenance

My head is heavy and my hair is disheveled

And anyways I felt odd, what do I do with my body

Let's head out to the hunting grounds

Wouldn't it be refreshing

If we could regularly cat-reset ourselves1 2

Though I believed, my confidence weakened

Business period of errands, negotiating my resume

Passing by just staring at the waveforms, the scent of the pedestrian bridge

I have value precisely because they don't realize it

Four, five thousand yen headphones sleeping in the cart 3

I want to expect more

What do I do with this personality

I won't think, don't want to think4

But the repeating time is the business of draws5

Sweet, sweet, scattered around, thrown up, empty in the end

No, no, I think I just gotta choose the strong points that match with me

Connection lost → Missing a stop, I kept striking with my bent fingernail

Bringing someone along, slipping off, it's a shame we don't come back to life

Neither friend nor foe, forcing each other's standpoints

Replying takes time, though it never ends

Guitar string expenses, food expenses, transportation expenses

Adam's apple, rice without destination and tears collide

Will that be worth something eventually? I ask and sleep

I'm going to lie to you too

I want to expect more6

What do I do with this personality7

I won't think, don't want to think

But the repeating time is the business of draws

Sweet, sweet, scattered around, thrown up, empty in the end

No, no, I think I just gotta choose the strong points that match with me

Ah.. What am I doing, free time is the enemy..

Experience8, shifts filled in9

Worried words, you know

"But I can't meet anyone"

When is that going to calm down?

I've been pretending but it won't disappear10

But after all, I want to expect

I can't help the process, the replies

I can't help living fast

Until we come to an agreement, it's the business of winning or losing

Sweet, sweet, scattered around, cleaned up11, we can laugh in the end

So stay quiet, I want to choose a mood that matches this dull me

1. A "cat-reset" (猫リセット) is when you lose your game progress because your cat stepped on the console's reset button.
2. "Isagi ii" is a (somewhat common) mispronunciation of "isagiyoi". I wonder if that's deliberate, since 潔い in this line is replacing the いい (ii) in できたらいいのに (dekitaraiinoni = I wish I could).
3. 4000~5000 yen = approx. 35 to 45 US$.
4. This line has some wordplay: the second 考える (kangaeru = to think) is spelled like 勘変える (something like "change my intuition").
5. As in a drawn game.
6. There's a pun in this line: 期待したいし (kitai shitaishi) is spelled with 大志 (taishi) for "ambition".
7. Here, 性格 (seikaku = personality) is instead written like 正確 (seikaku = correct, precise).
8. 経験値 (keikenchi) is experience, also used for experience points in a videogame.
9. I believe シフト出し is referring to filling in one's desired shifts in a job application form.
10. 偽る (itsuwaru) can be translated as "lie", "cheat", "pretend", "feign", "falsify", but the context doesn't make it clear which is the most precise translation.
11. 掃く (haku) has the same pronunciation as the word 吐く (haku) from the previous repetitions.

This song and its music video were created in collaboration with "Indeed", a company that aggregates job listings. I think it's safe to assume that the lyrics is themed around job searching.

At the 32 second mark in the music video, the text reads: 町を破壊する「猫リセッター」?の正体を突き止める！ (Determining the true identity of city-destroying 'cat resetter'?!).
