Song lyrics
Wa-mono
There's me, there's you (hoko-ten)
In a pedestrian paradise 
Where the catwalk got its claws (meow) 
A subculture, in a kaleidoscope of fashion 
Prowl the streets of Harajuku (irasshaimase)

Super lovers, tell me where you got yours 
(At the super lovers store)
Yohji Yamamoto 
I'm hanging with the locals 

Where the catwalk got its claws 
All you fashion know-it-alls 
With your underground malls 
In the world of Harajuku 
Putting on a show, when you dress up in your clothes 
Wild hair color and cell phones 
Your accessories are dead on 

[chorus 2x]
Harajuku girls, you got the wicked style 
I like the way that you are 
I am your biggest fan, oh

Harajuku girls 
I'm looking at you girls 
You're so original girls 
You got the look that makes you stand out 
Harajuku girls, I’m looking at you girls 
You mix and match it girls 
You dress so fly and just parade around (arigato)

I'm fascinated by the Japanese fashion scene 
Just an American girl in the Tokyo streets 
My boyfriend bought me a Hysteric Glamour shirt 
They’re hard to find in the States, got me feeling couture 

What’s that you got on
Is it Comme Des Garcons 
A Vivienne Westwood can’t go wrong 
Mixed up with second-hand clothes 
(Let's not forget about John Galliano, no)
Flip the landscape when Nigo made A Bathing Ape
I’ve got expensive taste (oh well)
Guess I’d better save up (cho takai)

[chorus 2x]

Work it, express it 
Live it, command your style 
Create it, design it 
Now let me see you work it 
Create it, design it 
Now let me see you work it 

You bring style and color all around the world (you harajuku girls) 
You bring style and color all around the world (you harajuku girls) 

Your look is so distinctive, like DNA 
Like nothing I've ever seen in the USA 
Your underground culture, visual grammar 
The language of your clothing, is something to encounter 
A ping-pong match between eastern and western 
Did you see your inspiration in my latest collection
Just wait till you get your little hands on L.A.M.B. 
Cause it's (super kawaii), that means (super cute in Japanese) 
The streets of Harajuku are your catwalk 
Bishoujo, you're so vogue
That's what you drop 

Cho saikou, Harajuku girls 
(And that’s what you drop, and that’s what you drop) 
Cho saikou, Harajuku girls 
(I'm your big fan, why Stefani, you like-a me?)

Harajuku girls [chorus in background]
Harajuku girls 

Style detached from content 
A fatal attraction to cuteness 
Style is style 
Fashion is fashion 
Girl, you got style

There was someone here who said it wasnt 'cool' (I would say 'tasteful' myself) for an artist to add in words from a different language into their lyrics. Well, if you are a JPop fan, you would see that they do that all the time in Japanese Pop and Rock music.

Which is why I think its kinda cool Gwen did this. I like to see blending of languages in music, its called sharing culture.

Anyway, I think Gwen may have the wrong impression of Harajuku girls--Most of them are relatively fake and dont even make their own clothes [anymore] . Whatever, at least shes really into it, Japanese fashion trends are mad-cute.

Also, "Tokyo Waii" is just like us saying "Tokyo! Yay!"

Wow, all this needs is Gwen screeching 'hentai!' and this could easily fit in with all those Inuyasha fanfics.

Yeah, and Yamamoto is a [/i]very[i] expensive brand. Buying his clothing used can easily cost a few hundred dollars. You don't want to know how much new dresses from Yamamoto cost...

I'm personally just waiting for Mana to get over here and strangle Gwen.
-=waits patiently with a camera=-
Screw Gwen.
She should get back with No Doubt.
Cause she's screwing herself over with all this pop crap.

Cho Takai: It is also said when a customer enters a store.

Hoko-ten: It is a street closed on SUndays for shoppers in harajuku.

PEople...??? What's the problem? If Gwen Stefani, the LAMB designer and Japan-obsessed singer likes the Harajuku concept and makes a whole album with the Japan/Asian theme, just let her have it and enjoy it! I mean, She creates an album, mainly for herself, and then for all her FANS (not the people who hate her/her songs).

I just find it really unneccesary when people say things like: "Why is ____ so obsessed with ____???" I mean, it's not gonna make the artist change if one person says it..

However, I think this song is nice. Neither can i speak, nor understand Japanese, but the song has funky lyrics and Gwen does a good job overall!!

Yeah, exactly. A bunch of Japanese songs have English in them. Some singers even do their whole songs in English. One example is Planet Tokyo, by a band which I cant remember the name of right now...

Everyone needs to stop critizing Gwen about her liking Harajuku girls and japanese style! I mean when you find something you really like you want to talk about it and stuff. Everyone has been obsessed with something at somepoint in there life. It's not freaky or wierd so stop saying it is!

This song is kinda freaky seeing how Gwen is so fanatic about her Harajuku girls, but overall her album is great! Love her!

Some people don't like Gwen because her songs are on mainstream radio now, but I think she's still as unique as ever and her album are a mix of different genres of songs, and you can't place a finger on a specific genre her album belongs to, which is great!

Ok just to clear a few things up:
Yohji Yamamoto, Comme des Garçon, Vivienne Westwood, & Nigo; are fashion designers.

Superlovers, Hysteric Glamour, L.A.M.B by Gwen Stefani A Bathing Ape by Nigo. ; are specific clothing lines/brands.
