Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Honey, can you pass me the salt?

Here you go.

Thanks. So... what are your weekend plans?

I haven't really thought about it. Why do you ask?

One of my coworkers is heading out of town this weekend.

Okay… and? Are you thinking about tagging along?

No, I'm working this weekend.

Then why are we talking about this?

Does it somehow involve me?

Well... he asked if I could watch his dog while he’s gone.

Don't you dare sign me up for that.

Come on.

His dogs are adorable and very well-behaved.

You'd definitely love her!

I don't care.

I'm not spending my whole weekend playing dog-sitter!

Did I mention he’s offering 200 bucks a day?

So... what time is she coming,

And do I have to pick her up, or is he dropping her off?

What’s with the giggle, bud?

Something funny happened at school?

Yeah, actually, there was something really funny at school today.

Oh. What happened?

So, there was a kid that kept playing fart sounds every time his teacher turned around.

Ha! I used to pull stuff like that back in the day.

Ahem… Dave.

Ugh... I mean, yeah, and then I realized it was really immature and stopped doing it.

Definitely not funny.

That's not even the funny part.

Oh? Then what is?

So she took his phone and gave it back at the end of class.

Okay…

But the thing is, his phone looked just like hers,

and she gave him her phone by mistake.

Uh oh. And then?

He unlocked it and saw a text pop up. It was from her boyfriend.

So? That’s not a big deal. Teachers are allowed to have boyfriends.

Yeah, mom, sure. But the problem is… she’s married.

What?! No way! Are you serious?

What happened next? Don’t leave me hanging!

Hey, morning! I didn’t see you around last week.

Yeah, I was in Hawaii visiting my in-laws.

Nice! How was your trip?

Oh, it was awesome. Perfect weather, great food, super chill people. Loved it.

Man, I wish I could take a trip like that.

Why not? Go for it!

People need to stop living at their desks.

You've got a point.

I mean, come on. Life's short.

Might as well enjoy it instead of staring at spreadsheets all day.

Ugh, now you’re really making me want to pack my bags.

Then do it, buddy!

I’ve been dreaming of going to Japan forever.

Japan is incredible. I went once. Totally worth it.

I might put in a request for some time off in August.

August? Why wait? Just go now!

Are you... sure about that?

Yeah. Why not?

Well... while you were gone, the boss gave us a new project.

If I leave now, it's all on you.

Er... You know what? August sounds like a great time to travel.

Man, what a perfect day. I’m really glad we decided to get out.

Why the long face, sweetie? You look miserable.

I hate being outside.

I'd rather be at home.

I've got a million things to do.

Oh, come on, it's summer.

Don't let all that stress get to you.

I think by “a million things,” he means video games.

Babe, you’ve been glued to that screen way too much lately.

Yeah, this is your chance to actually touch some grass.

Plus, look at all this good food we packed! Isn’t it awesome?

I’d be way happier in an air-conditioned room right now.

Buddy, sometimes you've got to learn to connect with nature.

OH MY GOSH, what was that?!

It’s literally just a bee, dad. We’re in a park.

Where's the bug spray?

I didn't bring any.

It’s just a harmless bee, dad. I thought we were supposed to connect with nature?

Yeah, well, not this kind of nature! Bees are flying danger!

Pack it up. We’re going home!

Hey, why do you look like someone just ran over your dog?

Is everything okay?

Ugh, nothing major. I just got my report card back.

Is it that bad?

You have no idea.

How bad are we talking?

It is so bad that I practically came with a sympathy card from the principal.

Really?

Nah, just kidding. But yeah, the grades part is real.

Oh, come on, it can't be that awful.

I'm not even joking right now.

If I don't get my act together, I can kiss college goodbye.

What do you want to improve?

First, math. Nothing made me cry like math, not even my ex.

I can help you with that.

Really?

But aren't you already swamped with yearbook committee?

Oh, I quit that. Way too much drama for me.

So you'd rather deal with my academic disasters than yearbook drama?

Pretty much. Yeah.

I love you.

I know you do.

Okay, what's wrong now? You look like a mess.

Liam broke up with me.

Are you serious?! What did he say?

I have no clue. He just said he "changed his mind" about us.

I always knew he was bad news.

Really? Then why didn’t you say anything before?

Because you never listen to me when you fall head over heels for some guy.

Okay, but he's not that bad, is he? I mean, come on.

Did I ever tell you he kicked a dog

just because its tail wagging was annoying him?

What?! Now that's definitely a deal-breaker!

See? You're not missing out on anything.

Do you really think so?

I know so. Now stop crying and let's go get our nails done.

I was honestly really bummed you didn't come to my party.

I didn't mean to upset you, but I was totally swamped studying for finals.

You always say that! Ever since you started med school, I barely see you anymore.

You're not the only one saying that.

My parents gave me the same speech last night.

Can't blame them.

I even have to skip my brother’s wedding because it’s on the same day as one of my exams.

Wait, what?

You're skipping your brother's wedding?

I know, I know. I wish I could reschedule the test, but I can’t. And also...

Also what?

I mean…Let's be real here. It’s probably not gonna be his last wedding.

Fair enough.

This is what... his third time walking down the aisle?

Hey kiddo, how’s your project coming along?

My... what?

Your art project. You said it was about Van Gogh or something?

Oh no! I totally forgot about that!

When is it due?

Monday.

You’ve still got two days. You’ll be alright.

But aren't we supposed to go on that trip this weekend?

Hmm… well, sounds like someone might be staying home to finish their project

while your mom and I go on a little date.

No, that's not fair.

This might be the first time that a happy you forgot something.

Hey sis! I bought the whipping cream!

Now we can make the frosting.

Great! I’ve already mixed the ingredients, just like the recipe said.

So, what’s next?

We just need to bake the cake.

Then we can start on doing the frost.

Hmm... It says bake at 180°C for 30 minutes.

Why so long?

That's what the recipe says.

I have an idea.

You want to bake it at 360°C, hah?

That way it'll be done in 15 minutes.

That's not how it works, Ryan.

We have to follow the recipe,

or we’ll end up with a chocolate brick instead of cake.

Haha, just kidding!

Come on, let me help you.

Urghh. I finally saved enough money for those sneakers

Those white ones we saw last week, right?

It does look great on you

Well? Don’t you also love one of them?

Yeah! you're right. I loved the pink ones.

Are you planning to buy them too?

I'm broke now!

I spent all my money 2 days ago on my dad birthday

Oh, you bought him a present?

Not exactly. I got him a big cake. He looked really happy with it.

I think it's worthy anyway.

So, how much do you have left?

I think they're just $2 left in my wallet.

Umm… I can lend you some money if you still want the pink sneakers.

Nah, Thanks! I will buy new ones when I spend enough money

It's up to you!

Let's go to buy yours!

I can’t wait to see you wearing them!

We’ve been working for five hours straight now.

Yeah, it's a long day.

My eyes hurt from looking at the screen.

And I have headache

I feel like I'm mesmerized.

Well, we've finished most of the report.

That’s true. Just a few more parts left.

Alright! Guys, let's call it a day.

You mean stop now?

Yes, Jake! We have been working so hard today!

That's so great! I'm just waiting for that one from you!

Urghh, Jake is always Jake!

Hahaha! Then we will finish the rest tomorrow.

Let me save the file now.

Sure! Don’t forget to back it up!

I won’t. You two go first, I’ll turn off the lights.

Thanks, Halley. See you tomorrow!

Bye! Halley. Have a great night!

See both of you soon!

Hmm... Should we get the regular pasta or the gluten-free one?

I’m fine ... with either. You’re the one cooking tonight.

Could you put your phone away?

Or you can have some water instead of pasta tonight.

Okay, sorry!

What did you say?

Regular pasta or the gluten-free one?

The gluten-free one is a bit more expensive though.

Yeah, but if it makes you feel better after eating, maybe it’s worth it.

Hmm... but the regular one tastes better to me.

Then it's totally up to you.

Do you want comfort or health?

I don't know too...

Ugh, why is adult life full of hard choices?

Haha, it’s just pasta. Not a life-changing decision.

Okay, let’s go with the regular one. I’ll just eat less.

Smart move. Now let’s head to the ice cream aisle.

Mom, I don't think I can go to school today.

I don't feel well. Achoo!

What excuse will you make to skip your classes today?

I'm serious this time, Mom! I have a headache and my body feels so cold.

Let me see.

Oh my! Your body feels like ice!

What did you do yesterday?

Well, I went home after playing football with friends.

then I took a shower with cold water, and ate two ice creams because I was hot.

You silly!

You silly! Next time, you’d better ask me before you do something like that!

I'm sorry, Mom!

So... can I skip classes today?

Okay. Excuses accepted.

Go back to your bed.

I'll make something hot for you.

Thanks, Mom! You're the best!

Dave, are you okay? You look like a zombie.

Hi Molly. I woke up late, and there was a blackout at home.

Oh no!

I rushed out—no time for breakfast, not even coffee.

That's sad.

Now I’m just a hopeless guy waiting for a hero.

Did someone call me?

Hi, Lucas.

Are you daydreaming again?

Well! I have three sandwiches here.

Wait… sandwiches?

Why do you have so many?

Yeah! My friend gave me some. He’s learning to make them for his girlfriend.

Wow, you're my angel today.

Hmm.. Did someone just call me a daydreamer?

I think Molly said it!

Very funny. Dave

Anyway, let’s eat. We still have to finish our report.

Yes sir! You really made my day

You’re not eating lunch? What's that?

Nah, I brought my own. Just a salad today.

Wow, trying to be healthy?

Yeah, but don’t get me wrong

I’d kill for that fried chicken over there.

Then get it! Haven’t you eaten salad like… three days in a row?

No choices. I’ve been feeling sluggish after lunch lately.

Heavy meals knocked me out.

I want to stay awake in the afternoon.

Fair. But salad every day sounds boring.

We all know that... It's just...

Yesterday I literally dreamed about French fries during a meeting.

Oh my, how about salad today, fries tomorrow?

That actually sounds perfect.

See? I’m not only here for gossip—I give real life advice.

Sure you do. Let’s grab coffee after?

Always.

You look great and energetic recently, David. Have you been working out?

Yeah, I go jogging a few times a week.

Oh, nice! How often do you go jogging?

I usually jog three times a week, sometimes four if I have time.

That’s great. In the morning or evening?

Always in the morning. It helps me feel fresh all day.

I also enjoy hearing the birds sing.

I wish I could do that. I’m always too lazy in the morning.

Haha, you just need to start. Even 10–15 minutes is okay.

It’s not that difficult once you get going!

Do you go alone?

Yes. I like the quiet time.

Can I join you next time?

Sure! Friday is okay?

Yeah! Of course! You decide!

Did you hear about the new restaurant that opened downtown?

Yeah, the one that's getting all the hype?

I'm not sure if it's worth the visit.

I was thinking of trying it out this weekend. Do you want to come?

I don't know... We cook every day, so maybe it would be nice to eat out for a change.

But I've heard it's pretty expensive.

That's true. But maybe it's worth it for a special occasion?

Like what?

Our anniversary is still months away.

Well... maybe a date night? We haven't had one in a while.

Hmm... okay, let's do it. But only if we stick to our budget!

Deal! I'll make a reservation.

And after that, we go back to our home-cooked meals, okay?

Absolutely! Nothing beats your kitchen magic.

Agreed! It's a date then.

Liam, I really think you should apologize to Anna.

Why? She's the one who overreacted!

It doesn't matter who started it. You both said things you shouldn't have.

I still don't understand why I have to be the one to apologize first.

Because it's the mature thing to do. And besides, you care about her, right?

Of course I care about her. She's my sister.

Then take the high road and mend the relationship. It's not about who's right or wrong.

Well, I can do what you said.

I just need some time to cool off.

I understand. But don't wait too long. It can lead to more serious problems.

You're right. Mia.

I'll think about how to approach her and apologize.

That's all I'm asking for.

Trust me.

Once you clear the air, you will both feel better.

Thanks, Mia. I appreciate your advice.

Anytime, Liam. That's what friends are for.

Hey, long time no see! How have you been?

Oh, Lisa, I've been so busy with work and everything.

But overall good. And you?

Same here. Work's been crazy, but there's been some good stuff too.

Oh? Like what?

I almost forgot to tell you the big news.

I got promoted.

Wow, that's amazing! Congrats! I knew you'd make it big.

Thank you! It's been a lot of hard work, but it's finally paying off.

So what's the new role?

I'm now the head of the marketing department. I'll be managing a team of 15.

That sounds challenging, but I know you'll handle it well.

I'm a bit nervous, to be honest, but it's a big step up.

It's natural to feel that way.

But remember, they promoted you because they believe in you.

Thanks, Alex. That means a lot.

How about you?

Any news on your end?

Not as exciting as a promotion, but I've taken up a new hobby.

Oh? What's that?

I've started painting. It's relaxing and helps me disconnect from work.

That's wonderful.

I'd love to see your artwork sometime.

Definitely. I'll show you next time.

It's a work in progress, though.

I'm sure it's great.

Everyone needs a creative outlet.

Thanks, Lisa. It's always good catching up with you.

Same here, Alex. Let's meet up again soon.

Did you hear about the community service project at the park last weekend?

Yeah, I was there with Jessica. Why?

I heard it was a lot of work.

How was it?

It was pretty intense. As soon as we got there, we started working.

Wow! Was it all day?

Almost. We took a short break for lunch, but that was it.

And what exactly were you guys doing?

We were cleaning up the park, planting new trees, and setting up benches.

Sounds exhausting. But it's for a good cause, right?

Absolutely! It felt great to give back to the community.

I wish I could've joined. I was out of town.

Don't worry, there will be other opportunities.

The park committee is planning more events.

That's good to hear. Count me in for next time!

I will! It's always better with more hands on deck.

You looked a bit upset after the meeting with Lisa. What's the deal?

Oh, Emily. We just had a disagreement about our project.

Was it about the design?

I thought both of you had settled on that last week.

We did. But she changed her mind and now wants to take things in a different direction.

That must be tough. But you two usually find a way to compromise.

I hope we can. It's just hard when plans change suddenly.

I understand. Maybe you should discuss it more and see where the issue is?

Thanks for the advice. I just need some time to think.

Take your time, Jake. And remember, it's only a project.

Don't let it ruin your day.

I'll try. Thanks, Emily.

You're welcome. Just stay positive!

I'll do my best.

Hey. Have you decided on a restaurant for a birthday dinner this weekend?

I was thinking of that new Italian place downtown. Have you been there?

Oh, I've heard about it.

They have great reviews.

But just to let you know, I'm a vegan now.

Really? When did that happen? I remember you loved steak!

About six months ago.

It's a personal choice.

Just wanted to make a difference, you know?

That's commendable. We should pick a place that has vegan options then.

I didn't want to impose.

If you have your heart set on the Italian place, I can manage.

No, it's your day too! Let's find somewhere we both can enjoy.

Thanks, Lily. It means a lot.

Do you know any places with good vegan dishes?

There's “Green Plate” just a block away.

They have both vegan and non-vegan dishes.

How about that?

Sounds perfect! I've heard they do an amazing vegan pizza.

Then it's settled! 'Green Plate' it is. I'll make a reservation.

Thanks for being understanding, Lily. It's not always easy being vegan.

It's your choice, Max. And I respect it. Let's celebrate tomorrow!

Had a little incident in the kitchen earlier, huh?

Oh, don't remind me. It was so embarrassing.

Come on, what happened? We've all had our clumsy moments.

Okay, okay. So, I was trying to make a sandwich, right?

The peanut butter jar was hard to open.

Ah, the old peanut butter jar struggle. Go on.

I tried everything.

Hot water using a cloth, but it just wouldn't budge.

And then?

Well, I may have used a little too much force...

The jar broke, and peanut butter was everywhere!

Oh no! That sounds like quite the mess.

It was! Took me forever to clean it up. And now I'm out of peanut butter.

I have an extra jar at my place. Want it?

Really? That would be great!

But only if you promise not to make fun of me.

I promise nothing! But you can have the peanut butter.
