Lyrics

Wasabi
Wasabi
Breathe in don't cry
Okay, maybe cry a little

We line up at dawn in Shizuoka rain
Green roots calling out our name
Chopsticks ready camera flash
One big bite instant whiplash
Sinus lightning brainwave quake
We laugh so hard the locals shake
Spice monks nod as we kneel and chew
Our tongues say mercy our hearts say two

Eyes water lips hum
Heartbeat like a taiko drum
This is pain this is art
We eat courage by the cart

Wasabi, Wasabi
Turn the heat up touch the sky
Wasabi, Wasabi
Sweet burn makes us feel alive
Every tear a souvenir
Every scream a cheer we hear
Wasabi, Wasabi
We'll do it again today

Nagoya noon my face still red
You said stop, I laughed instead
Old man grinning gives a dare
Try the root raw if you care
We don't flinch we strike a pose
Cameras roll as the chaos grows
Sweat on silk our glam disguise
Cool girls with tear-filled eyes

Mouths on fire hearts in sync
Breathing spice instead of drink
This is love this is war
One bite more
One bite more
One bite more

Wasabi, Wasabi
Turn the heat up touch the sky
Wasabi, Wasabi
Sweet burn makes us feel alive
Every tear a souvenir
Every scream a cheer we hear
Wasabi, Wasabi
We'll do it again today

You okay
I can't feel my face
It's perfect

Pain is the passport
Fire is the proof

Wasabi, Wasabi
Turn the heat up touch the sky
Wasabi, Wasabi
Sweet burn makes us feel alive
Every tear a souvenir
Every scream a cheer we hear
Wasabi, Wasabi
Forever on this spicy way

Wasabi
Still burns good
Wasabi
