March in AprilAwesome City Club
This song portrays a cute girl who admires adults all dolled up with beautiful makeup and fancy clothes, and who puzzles them by asking, “What’s so wrong about wearing makeup to school?” It highlights the strange rules of society: students aren’t allowed to wear makeup, while adults are expected to as a matter of etiquette.
Many people, upon entering high school, awaken to fashion and start taking an interest in makeup.
Social norms and school rules are certainly important, but it’s wonderful when changes in our environment spark curiosity and open the door to something new.
