idolYOASOBI
The hugely popular song “Idol,” the theme of the hit anime Oshi no Ko, is also perfect for a lyrics prank.
In particular, the first verse’s A-melody uses a series of questions, so the person you’re pranking might politely answer them one by one (lol).
Other parts of the song touch on topics like romance and self-deprecating humor, so you could also snip out sections and use them for the prank.
Just note that it’s a very famous song, so it’s best to try this on someone who will play along even if they realize it’s a lyrics prank!
HeroYOASOBI
YOASOBI’s “Yuusha,” released in 2019, became a hot topic as the opening theme for the TV anime Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End.
Created under their signature concept of transforming novels into music and inspired by the anime’s original story, the song carries a powerful message symbolizing courage and new beginnings.
It’s perfect for expressing friendship and gratitude—or even for pulling a lighthearted prank to make someone laugh—so why not try using its lyrics for a playful surprise?
[Lyric Prank] Confused by messages that aren’t the usual on LINE!? A roundup of recommended songs (31–40)
My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS
A song by the four-piece rock band RADWIMPS, who announced a hiatus starting in September 2021.
It was used as an insert song in the anime film Your Name, which became a major social phenomenon, and it’s a number where every element—its striking intro, catchy phrases, and exhilarating tone—comes together dramatically.
The first line of the lyrics limits the scene, making the timing tricky, but if you send a LINE message at a time when the recipient is likely to be waking up and then send the next line after they reply, you can probably throw them into a panic.
It’s a lyrics prank you’ll want to try on a close friend so you can enjoy their groggy reaction.
I want to be your lover.Chōkyūmei
The band Chokyumei, which debuted in 2020, scored a massive hit with their song “I Want to Be Your Lover,” surpassing 1 billion views on TikTok and becoming a social phenomenon.
With a melody and lyrics that delicately depict deep affection and a wistful longing for the other person, it captured the hearts of many.
If you use the lyrics of this song—which convey a single-minded desire to become someone’s lover—for a lyrics prank, the other person will no doubt be shocked, thinking, “Is this a sudden confession?!” If there’s no deeper intention beyond the prank, make sure to follow up after you send it!
I don’t mind if you’re a little devil!mei-chan
Meichan, who has gained popularity as a vocalist for Vocaloid songs.
The track he sang, “Even a Little Devil Is Fine!,” depicts moments when feelings for someone you like overflow.
Because the lyrics unfold with unique wording, it’s perfect for timing a lyric-prank.
Send LINE messages one line at a time to both surprise the other person and convey your affection.
It could also be fun to throw out questions and wait for their reaction.
Try setting up a lyric-prank as a conversation starter with someone you’re interested in.
Fantastic BabyBIGBANG
This signature track by BIGBANG fuses electropop and EDM into an innovative sound marked by overwhelming energy and addictive beats.
It delivers a powerful message of challenging fixed ideas, self-affirmation, and a will for creative transformation.
Since its release in February 2012, the song has drawn global attention.
It’s perfect not only for energizing a party scene but also for surprising someone with bold, high-impact lyrics.
With its groovy beat and memorable phrases, it’s sure to leave the recipient delightfully bewildered.
It’s nothing.makaroni enpitsu
Try sending the lyrics of Macaroni Enpitsu’s “Nandemonai yo,” which gently speak to the cherished parts of a beloved person.
Since the content spills out one’s own helplessness while murmuring affection, it can also draw out how the other person feels about you.
The expressions of love gradually grow toward the chorus, so it’s also a fun point to see whether they can respond to that properly.
It’s enjoyable to have them react to each line, but if you group a few phrases together before sending, it might add a reflective element and change the way they respond.
