Every day, every day, such a hassle, such a hassle
Living is such a hassle, such a hassle
Even taking a break sometimes, such a hassle, such a hassle
Isn't it fine? Isn't it fine?
Dealing with people, such a hassle, such a hassle
Pretending to be friendly, such a hassle, such a hassle
Even if I don’t keep up with the mood, such a hassle, such a hassle
Isn't it fine? Isn't it fine?
Alright, alright! [1]
Mind and body, break through the limits!
Alright, alright!
Your head goes all crazy
Ha ha ha, well, let’s go crazy! [2]
Tomorrow is tomorrow, isn't that fine, isn't that fine?
Cackling, let’s go crazy! [3]
Go on, be a fool, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Even if you worry, when it’s no good, it’s no good, no good, no good
Even if you think about it, when it’s impossible, it’s impossible, impossible, impossible
Cackling, let’s go crazy!
Go ahead, act like a fool, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Just forget it all and party!
Gossiping, backbiting, it’s tough, it’s tough.
Being treated like crap, it’s tough, it’s tough.
Even losing it every now and then, it’s tough, it’s tough.
Isn't it fine? Isn't it fine?
Getting completely rejected, it’s tough, it’s tough
Mentally wrecked, it’s tough, it’s tough
How about falling in love with me (Mikoto-sama) is tough, it’s tough
Isn't it fine? Isn't it fine?
Alright, alright!
Clean up your mind and body!
Alright, alright!
Reborn, fresh and lively!
Ha ha ha, well, let’s go crazy!
Tomorrow is tomorrow, isn't that fine, isn't that fine?
Cackling, let’s go crazy!
Go on, be a fool, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Even if you worry, when it’s no good, it’s no good, no good, no good
Even if you think about it, when it’s impossible, it’s impossible, impossible, impossible
Cackling, let’s go crazy!
Go ahead, be silly, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Just forget it all and party!
Sing, laugh, dance, and make noise!
Ha ha ha, well, let’s go crazy!
Tomorrow is tomorrow, isn't that fine, isn't that fine?
Cackling, let’s go crazy!
Go ahead, act like a fool, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Even if you worry, when it’s no good, it’s no good, no good, no good
Even if you think about it, when it’s impossible, it’s impossible, impossible, impossible
Cackling, let’s go crazy!
Let yourself go, isn't it fine, isn't it fine?
Just forget it all and party!

[1] よいしょ! よいしょ! (Yoisho! Yoisho!) is a phrase of encouragement, like cheering yourself on when you’re feeling down.
The phrases [2] わっはっはっは そりゃ ぱっぱっぱっぱりら (Wahhahhahha sorya papparapapparira) and [3] かっかっかっか こりゃ ぱっぱっぱっぱりら (Kakkakkakka korya papparapapparira) are basically just sounds of laughter and silliness, I'm guessing. I'm not sure how to translate them entirely lol
----------------------------------------------------------
In general, "ええじゃないか" (Ee janai ka) can be translated as "Why not?" or "Isn't it fine?" It’s a casual, sometimes playful or rebellious expression used to suggest that something should be accepted or that there's no need to worry. It can also imply a carefree attitude, like "It's all good" or "No problem!".
Basically the song is saying: life is hard, but we can choose to make it a little easier by laughing, letting go, and not taking things too seriously. It reminds us that sometimes it's okay to be silly and carefree. (Love this message from Mikoto-sama, especially since he's the perfect mix of serious and silly himself!)
Personally, I think the song would be best enjoyed during:
1. Tough or stressful days when work, school, or responsibilities feel too much.
2. After experiencing disappointment, whether it's heartbreak, rejection, or failure.
3. When you're feeling mentally drained.
4. As a motivational boost when you need that extra push.
(Finally, I’ve included the live version of the song. I absolutely love this video where Mikoto-sama and Ryuya teach the audience the furitsuke. There's also a part where Mikoto-sama says something like, “It doesn’t matter if you're a bangya or just a panpi [casual fan].” Classic Mikoto-sama, our inclusive king, hehe)
