No night, No life TRANSLATION [BAD SKUNK]

【JUNKY】 【CHERRY】 【SPRING】 【YP】

(See end for translation notes.)

“I want to dream with my eyes open”

That hungry flush looks great on you in this Nighter Game 

“Could I have a sip from your glass?”

Tonight’s the only night you can enjoy it so, ah, get drunk

A devilish smile? A gentleman’s invitation?

Either way, does it matter? Dance is language

The door to paradise, covered in graffiti 

Come on, kick it open, Go Mad!

Not even god can stop us! Until the end, 

the world will keep on spinning, this Midnight Planet

We’re bound so tightly, 

even the lights that can’t join the constellations are So High!

(No night, No life) We’ll lick the sweetness from our wounds

(Those lies in your mind) Just savour it, it’s Heavenly Hell

(No night, No life) Sink even deeper into this One Night

(Non-stop dancing tonight, be all right)

Dive into this dream!

“I want to be loved so hard I can't sleep”

If you show your true self the night awakes

“I’ve seen you here before” It must be fate then!

Such things seem common in these overflowing City Lights

You hold me so close, but I think you might hate me

Uniting our hearts should be our Only Language

When all I have are wicked thoughts, reason disappears

I’m just a wolf in sheep’s clothing!

Throw it all into disarray! Feel alive again

and feel it all deep in your soul, just for a moment

When it all piles up,

this fragile artificial love starts to seem So Cool!

(No night, No life) To the sweet taste of dripping honey,

(The lies in your mind) Let’s all get wild, it's Heavenly Hell

(No night, No life) Only One Road to the darkest depths

(Suddenly Falling tonight, be all right)

I just wanna lose it!

The neon lights in this city keep melting away

These softhearted morals, who do you help by holding us back?

Aren't we only getting started?!

Nobody can take us on! (Until the end!) Until the end,

The world will keep on spinning, this Midnight Planet

When it all falls apart,

This heart of mine only beats faster, so Get High!

(No night, No life) We’ll lick the fervor from our wounds

(Those lies in your mind) It’s so addictive, this Heavenly Hell

(No night, No life) Sink even deeper into this One Night

(Non-stop dancing tonight, be all right)

Dive into the bliss!

♡ TRANSLATION NOTES ♡

[1] General

To start these TNs off, I should say this was one of the harder songs I've translated in my time because as there are no official GS lyric books yet, I was just relying on what I could find online and very quickly realised the lyrics I could find are incorrect in some places. On top of that, this whole song's pretty vague and while I've done my best to make sense of it, it's probably not my best work. I welcome any criticism or corrections from other translators should you think of anything!

[2] I’m just a wolf in sheep’s clothing!

There's nothing wrong about this translation since it's literally in my dictionary but also I feel like I only chose it for the sheep mention. It could have just been 'hypocrite' but I couldn't resist.

[3] who do you help by holding us back? Aren't we only getting started?!

This was a struggle... This is a bit of a stretch of the original meaning but it's the only way I could get it to sound natural in English. Suggestion are welcome, so if you'd like to reccomend a better translation, the original line is this:

誰が為の箍を？ここからだろ？

[arkaylarts]

I've greatly taken a liking to them.

[heavyweponguy]

The sandvich creature whines and runs back over to you. Seems like it has imprinted on you - congratulations, you are a father of a living sandvich now. At least it thinks you are.

*sighs*

Skunk no. Also little bread sandvvich is fine.

NO BC LISTEN.

WIRO REACTING TO HIS CRUSH/LOVER WEARING A SUIT. LIKE IT FITS THEIR FRAME SO PERFECTLY AND SNUGLY AND WDYM “WHY IS HE LOOKING” OFC HE’S LOOKING LIKE HELLO???

I can’t tell if he would shameless let his eyes roam or would avoid looking at them KDIDKSKSK WIRO BRAINROT IS SO REALL

KAJNSDSA BROOO OMG okokokok something along the lines but 👀

Reblogs are greatly appreciated !!

You're fiddling with the cuffs of your suit as you exit the changing room, a frown on your face. You're nervous— of course you are! It's not often that you're invited to a high-profile, black-tie event like this, and you'd rather not stick out like a sore thumb.

Wriothesley, who sits comfortably in a plush armchair, has been invited before though. But time and time again he's turned down the invites with some of the most ludicrous excuses. 'A monster is attacking the fortress' is one of his most used ones, closely followed by 'a bird shat on the shoulder of my suit.' But you wonder why he's accepted this time, despite his distaste for the limelight. Well, you shrug, pocketing the thought for later. At least you won't be going alone.

"What do you think?" You pose the question to him, still frowning as you look down at yourself. Did you look okay? Was the fit alright? Did this color wash you out? You had splurged on this (well. Wriothesley splurged on this, technically. He had said it's a gift) and had the suit custom-done, so it should fit your measurements to an exact, but... you frown, not able to shake off the nerves.

And it doesn't help that Wriothesley hasn't said anything since you've stepped out, either. Merely stares at you, eyes roaming your figure. Even at your question, he acts like he hadn't even heard it. Does the suit look that bad?

"Wrio?"

That seems to reach him, and he blinks, finally registering that he's been staring at you— and that you've begun to stare back.

"Oh, uh. Yeah, it looks nice on you. The tailor did a very good job," he says, glancing away, hoping you don't see the red tinge to his cheeks or his ears.

"Really?" You ask, evaluating yourself in the mirror with a frown. "I don't know. I feel like I look like a mess."

"if you look like a mess, then I dread to think what I look like," he says, glancing at you for a second, getting an eyeful of you in that damn good suit, and feels his mouth dry up again. Wriothesley turns his eyes to the corner of the room, finding the fake palm plant there incredibly interesting. Barely more interesting than you. In that very flattering suit. It emphasizes your body very well, he thinks. Makes him see just enough of you while still leaving some to the imagination. And the color you chose for it... red and black, to match what he'll wear, you said. He sighs, troubled, because just the mere memory of it has his heart racing and his palms sweating.

You keep criticizing your reflection for a while longer, and it takes just enough time for Wriothesley to work up the self-control to look your way. "You look good," he says at last. Then clears his throat. His face feels hot. "Better than good, even. You don't have anything to worry about, I promise."

It placates you, because you finally give your own reflection a rest. You back away from the mirror, humming. "If you say so. Thank you, Wrio," you tell him, flashing him a small, shy smile just before you back up into the changing room once more to take it off.

Once you're out of the vicinity, Wriothesley drops his head into his palms, groaning softly.

if he's this much of a mess around you at a fitting, he wonders how much of a fool he could make himself at the actual event.

Nuts Addiction TRANSLATION [BAD SKUNK]

【JUNKY】 【AK】 【NERU】 【CHERRY】 【SPRING】 【YP】

(See end for translation notes.)

Well, well, well, what’s up with you? (That vacant look on your face…)

You’re trembling (You OK?) 

Just go ahead and tell me what it is you want

Think you can take it? (Hey!)

It’ll feel just like an overdose (Oh!)

Can you take in we're, alright? (BAD SKUNK!!)

You’re looking much happier now (Hey!) Becoming beautiful

Together we’re crazy, stylish lady

Sickly pale makeup, totally cute!

Colorful Nuts like decorations, I’ll tear them apart

(Yeah!) Let addiction pull us under!

(Yeah!) Corrupt you with our beliefs

(Yeah!) We’ll just be buried with our misery

(Yeah!) as the dependence starts to kick in!

Start a riot, violent heartbeat, pulled in by the rhythm

Embrace the rush of endorphins, until the morning breaks

Say! Clap, clap, put your hands up!

Pumped, pumped, like a drug XXX!

Clap, clap, it’s a BAD SKUNK!

Nuts, Nuts, Nuts Addiction!

Though your head’s reeling (Dance!) See if you can manage it (Dance!)

After all, there’s nothing here to be afraid of! (Ha-ha!)

I will keep (Lose your mind) the evils at bay (Lose it)

“So let’s get crazy” (Hey!)

There’s not a single sane person (Oh!)

up on this stage (Buster!!)

So I guess we’re all the same then (Hey!)

Like a dream, ain’t it?

Ready, steady, like a baby

Those innocent eyes blacked out a while ago now

The dancefloor will rock you to sleep however long the room keeps spinning

(Yeah!) Lets enjoy this affliction!

(Yeah!) Pray all our sorrows away!

(Yeah!) Clear the slate and start over,

(Yeah!) in a hedonistic monochrome! 

Every day the party gets hotter, in all our coexistence

Take our hands, and follow close behind

There is no turning back tonight!

Leave behind your inhibitions

Dance, keep on dancing!

You keep on running away, Fanatic Tripper

Seems the illusion’s failing now you’ve accepted the Brain Hack

So strange, so addictive,

this unstoppable chain of events

Keep going faster, Oh-Eh-Oh-Eh-Oh

Won’t leave you alone, this Nuts Addiction

(Yeah!) Let addiction pull us under!

(Yeah!) Corrupt you with our beliefs

(Yeah!) We’ll just be buried with our misery

(Yeah!) as the dependence starts to kick in!

Start a riot, violent heartbeat, pulled in by the rhythm

Embrace the rush of endorphins, until the morning breaks

Say! Clap, clap, put your hands up!

Pumped, pumped, like a drug XXX!

Clap, clap, it’s a BAD SKUNK!

Nuts, Nuts, Nuts Addiction!

♡ TRANSLATION NOTES ♡

[1] Can you take in we're, alright?

Doesn't really make much sense, but since it's in English in the original lyrics I've kept it as is. My guess for the intended meaning would be "You can keep up with us, right?" but I can't be sure.

[2] I’ll tear them apart

This is a case of me just not knowing what the original lyrics are going for. Really AK here is saying "I'll chew them to pieces with my head" and it could be more like "I'll tear them apart with my intellect/brain" but neither of those are really appealing. So I've opted to just drop the 'head' part and stick with the 'tear them apart' bit.

[3] Clear the slate and start over, in a hedonistic monochrome!

This line gave me a bit of grief. The literal translation would be something like:

Lets repaint everything, in a monochrome of corrupted pleasure!

But this fails to capture the nuances of the word usage which implies more than they're starting over from scratch, rather than just 'painting the town' like it's a vandalism thing. That could also totally be the case, and I could be reading into too much, but I think I managed to capture the right feeling in the end.

[4] --in all our coexistence

The original lyric for this is 共生するIsmで (kyousei suru ISM de) and though I normally try to include any preexisting English in my translations 'coexist-ism' and 'harmon-ism' are just. not words...

[arkaylarts]

"Arkayl stop getting into new music projects and work on your wips"

I cannot be stopped no matter how much i want to

[faker-aus]

Finally got around to the Skunk Bros!
