[Part 2] My interpretation of SECRET NUMBER - LIKE IT LIKE IT

I thought I never going to make it to part 2. I am such a procrastinator. I know. Though I am actually already done with the interpretation of the lyrics a while ago, I never really bother to post it. Also to be honest with you I don't actually expect someone will actually read it in the first place.

I am not so consistently posted anything for the past few months due to my slump. I just started reading again, too. Thank God, I think I'm doing really great so far. Wait i should stop talking about irrelevant things here. Let’s get into part 2 of the 'LIKE IT LIKET IT' lyrics interpretation. Oh, I forgot to mention in part one I am using my POV here. So I’ll act as if I'm the main character here hahaha. For you who haven't seen part one simply click it here.

[Chorus]
Ah-la-la, like it, like it
ねぇ、もっと give me love
あら、キライ？ キライ?!
な訳ない your eyes

Give me more love
There's no way I hate your eyes, kidding me?
In fact, I like it.

Do you know why I really like this part, the wordplay!
あら、キライ？ キライ?!
ara, kiRAI? KIrai?!

LIKE IT (can be pronounced RAIKI sometimes in japanase accent when they talk so fast).

xin

Ah-la-la like it, like 賭けてみなくちゃ
その心さえ bet on, bet on, bet

You have to make sacrifices even with your heart.

You have to prepare your heart because you might end up broken-hearted 

xin

Ah-la-la, like it, like ちょっと大胆ね
(Hey, show me more)
Ayy, そんなんじゃまだ落ちないわ
(Hey, show me more)

I like it if you're bolder/straight forward with me
'cause what you do it's not enough yet

ルーレットの針が止まる
Tick-tack, tick-tack, you'll win or lose

Do you hear the sounds of roulette's stop ticking? 
You can’t waste any more time

[Refrain]
Bad 期待してる (Really cool, huh?)
Jiggy, jiggy best of me? (Come on, come on)
Baad イカしてる (Mm, ah, la-la-la-la)
Chilly, chilly best of me

I interpreted Bad here as in ‘Too Bad’
Bad 期待してる (Really cool, huh?)
Still looking forward to the best part of me aww too bad
you get me??? it's okay if you don't 😁

xin

イカしてる / Ikashiteru in Japanese means cool.
But I don't think Japanese people nowadays use that word again unless it became a thing again well you know since TikTok Generations exist, who knows?

xin

Bent on 叶えてあげるわ so, tell me,
what do you want? (Like it)
Bent on 期待してる?

If you're begging, I'll give you what you want so, tell me,
Looking forward to it huh? You need to beg.

Ah-la-la, like it, like ちょっと大胆ね
(Hey, show me more)
Ayy, そんなんじゃまだ落ちないわ
(Hey, show me more)

I like it if you're bolder/straight forward
If you're like this I won't fall for you

[Bridge]
心さえ賭けてみなきゃ no, no
何一つ手にできないから

You won't get anything if you don't put your heart on the line!

SECRET NUMBER always have the best BRIDGE!
"心さえ賭けてみなきゃ no, no何一つ手にできないから"
Also this line is a statement!

xin

That's all for today. I hope I can write more interesting stuff here from now on. Oh, I'm planning on making a proper translation of SECRET NUMBER's interview on KanstaPress during their second visit there. Don't forget to stream SECRET NUMBER - LIKE IT LIKE IT every single day. Stay safe y'all. - xin
