Doing a live listening to his sophomore album, S16, Woodkid said about “Minus Sixty One”:
Probably the most important song. The whole album leads to this song. I hope it inspires you.
Maybe the whole idea is not to find happiness inside but something outside of us, on a cause that is not self-cente...
[Verse 1: Woodkid]
Minus sixty-one
Have I every really loved someone?
Do I deserve what I've got?
Now the grid system's turned into traps
And the fear's switching sides
I own a million dollars worth of stock
But I still don't sleep at night
What is it that I've become?
[Verse 2: Woodkid]
Minus sixty-one
Now the water level rises high
In my cold paradise
Where men sit in circles and talk numbers
I never really liked
The way they think of life
As some kind of gamble
And watch the city drown
Where is it that I belong?
[Chorus: Suginami Junior Chorus]
宇宙 天国か?
宇宙 天国か?
う 宇宙 天国か?
ばんゅういんりょくが
[Verse 3: Woodkid]
Minus sixty-one
Now the wind cuts the lips like a knife
And the sun is out of sight
I see the world I build lose at trial
What is left and what is right?
I made the worst mistake one can make
Pretended and playing blind
What is it I'm trying to find?
[Chorus: Suginami Junior Chorus]
宇宙天国か
孤独な (宇宙天国か?)
孤独な (う宇宙天国か?)
孤独な (宇宙天国か?)
[Outro: Suginami Junior Chorus]
