[Lyrics Prank] Confused by LINE that's not the usual!? A roundup of recommended songs

Do you know about the “lyrics prank”? A lyrics prank is when you send the lyrics of a song you like on LINE one line at a time.

It can be used to confess your feelings or to express your everyday gratitude.

On the other hand, if you use lyrics that have nothing to do with everyday life, the person receiving them won’t understand what’s going on and will be left confused! In this article, we’ll introduce a bunch of songs that are perfect for lyrics pranks—useful for both confessions and playful jokes.

We’ve picked a wide range, from love-themed and friendship-themed songs to funny ones that will bewilder the other person, so be sure to use this as a reference!

[Lyric Prank] Confused by a different-than-usual LINE!? A roundup of recommended songs (51–60)

A confession of love from A to ZHanamaru Maruko

“A Love Confession in the 50 Sounds,” created by Hanamaru Maruko, a popular TikToker, delivers words of love to someone special following the Japanese syllabary order (a-ka-sa-ta-na).

Because it cherishes the other person, it also portrays moments of being clingy or getting upset, making it perfect for a lyrics-prank.

By sending each phrase one by one in order, you can enjoy a conversation that amusingly drifts out of sync with the other person’s replies.

How about sending many words filled with honest feelings to the one you love?

[Lyrics Prank] When I sent “Cry Baby” to my boyfriend, I found out he used to be a delinquent lol [Tokyo Revengers]

This is the opening theme of the popular delinquent anime Tokyo Revengers.

Written specifically for the show by Official HIGE DANDism, the lyrics make your heart race as they bring the anime’s scenes and characters to mind.

When pulling a lyrics prank with this song, a good setup would be that you were harassed by delinquents or got caught in a fight between them.

It might feel a little guilty to play the prank, but they’ll surely be worried about you—and you’ll get to experience their kindness!

Shut up.Ado

I pulled a lyrics prank on my mom with “Usseewa” and ended up regretting it.
Shut up.Ado

Since her striking debut, every new release by the next-generation female singer Ado has become a hot topic.

This is her first single—a famously iconic song that needs no introduction, one that even became a social phenomenon due to its powerful impact.

Because the lyrics are filled with striking, forceful words right from the opening line, young people might recognize it immediately if you send it to them.

But if you send it to someone like a parent’s generation who isn’t up to date with the latest music, it could work as a pretty shocking lyric-prank.

Just make sure to reveal the truth carefully so it doesn’t turn into a real argument.

We againSG

Tried a 'Bokura Mata' lyrics prank on my friend lololol #LyricsPrank #BokuraMata
We againSG

SG, a Korean-Japanese neo singer-songwriter, released the song “Bokura Mata” in April 2021.

The piece delicately expresses the loneliness of parting with friends and the hope of meeting again, teaching us the courage to pursue our dreams and the importance of human connection.

It’s also appealing that SG, with a mixed Japanese-Korean background, serves as a bridge between cultures.

This song accompanies many different life paths and offers hope—so even if you knew it was a prank when someone sent you the lyrics, you might still find yourself moved to tears!

The cute lyrics, which sing about a desire to transcend reality with magic-like power, leave a strong impression! Hoshimachi Suisei’s “BIBIDEBA,” released in March 2024, depicts breaking free from everyday boredom and freely chasing one’s dreams.

With phrases that evoke the story of Cinderella and mysterious magical words sprinkled throughout, the lyrics are sure to fill listeners with excitement.

[Envy Baby] In a 4-person group, three team up to pull a lyrics prank and he goes ballistic—friendship destroyed!? lol [Lyrics Prank]

Kanaria, a Vocaloid producer whose talent has drawn attention after “KING,” posted on a video-sharing site, became a million-seller with just his second release, presents his fourth Vocaloid track.

Its medieval European-inspired tones and melodies, combined with a catchy hook, create a uniquely atmospheric feel, and despite its short length, it has an addictive quality that makes you want to listen again and again.

The lyrics, which don’t quite make sense when compared to everyday life, and the sudden, startling phrases that pop up here and there form a striking contrast that leaves the recipient bewildered.

It’s a perfect pick for a lyric-prank—great for testing how long it takes before someone realizes what song it is.

This is the fifth major single by the four-piece rock band flumpool, which also made headlines when Yusuke Inoue of the hugely popular comedy duo NON STYLE, especially beloved by young people, served as a support guitarist.

The song was chosen as the theme for the film “From Me to You” (Kimi ni Todoke), and its blend of speed and light, floating vibes makes for an exhilarating track.

The lyrics, which feel like you’re speaking to someone important, read so naturally that you could send them line by line on LINE without the other person realizing it’s a lyrics prank.

It’s a straightforward love song that lets you express feelings and words you normally can’t say out loud.
