[Lyrics Prank] Confused by messages that aren’t the usual? A roundup of recommended songs (21–30)
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?
Hated by life.Kanzaki Iori
The songs by Vocaloid producer Kanzaki Iori, known for their striking presence with death-evoking lyrics and strong storytelling, are truly distinctive.
The lyrics, which make you reflect on the contradictions and values you encounter in life, combined with a melancholic yet driving sound, create an addictive appeal.
The opening lines, which seem to reject the world’s pretty lies, would make anyone worry if they were sent one by one over LINE.
In the end, the lyrics sing about living strong despite everything, but if the recipient doesn’t know the song, they’d probably get worried early on and call you—making it a perfect track for a lyric-prank.

Because I like you.Yuika
“Sukidakara” (Because I Like You) is a song released in 2021 by singer-songwriter Yuika.
It’s truly a love song that captures the feeling of mutual but unconfessed crushes! The lyrics express both the girl’s and the boy’s feelings, and the way they’re aware of each other yet can’t quite confess is frustrating in a sweet, adorable way.
If you use this song as a lyric prank, it’ll convey your feelings of love to the other person! Sending it to your crush could serve as a confession, and sending it to your partner might be a chance to express feelings you don’t usually say.

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!
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!
Bling-Bang-Bang-BornCreepy Nuts
Released in 2024, Creepy Nuts’ song “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” was chosen as the opening theme for season 2 of the anime Mashle: MAGIC AND MUSCLES, and its energetic beat and thought-provoking lyrics quickly became a hot topic among fans.
The song vividly portrays young people striving to live powerfully day by day, showcasing Creepy Nuts’ distinctive musical style.
With its message that says, “It’s okay to be yourself!”, using this track for a lyric-prank would surely surprise your friends while firing you both up with a “You’re right—let’s do this!” spirit.
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.
