Wake up at 4 am, I hear your ringtone on my cellphone
Pick up and hear you say “So where’d you run off, and with who?”
I make excuses just as readily as I know you do
It’s just the one-night stand that I look forward to

It’s so cliché to say you’re my only
But don’t you know you’re just someone new
Another fling; you were looking for that, too, after all

You want my love, you do, I know that you do
So I will give, I’ll give it all up to you
I see it in your eyes, you feel it burning up the room
The taste of my spices is yours today

I call you up and say I want to talk to you directly
You laugh and say you’ll meet me soon as you can- right on cue
I’ve been with lots of girls and I know how to get what I want
So irresistible, there’s no way I can lose

It’s so cliché to say you’re my only
But don’t you know I’m in love with you
Love is war, and I’m not about to give up the game

You want my love, you do, I’m sure that you do
So I will give, I’ll give it all up to you
I see it in your eyes, you feel it burning up the room
The taste of my spices is yours today

Maybe I’m not so great with feelings and stuff
Experience taught me to give all that up
Everyone else seems so displeasing to me after you
I don’t need a heartbreaker girl like you

I want you, you know that I do
So I will give, I’ll give it all up for you
I see it in your eyes, you feel it burning up the room
I’ll taste of your spices anyway
This is my English transliterated lyrics for Kagamine Len's song, SPICE!: [link]
(Pssst, watch the awesome PV here too!!: [link])
I worked this out from a translation I did by my lonesome (with help from handy Rikaichan because Reggy fails at kanji!), so I apologize for any inconsistencies with the actual meaning of the Japanese. I did take some creative liberties to try to convey the same feeling while still being as faithful to the original lyrics as I could be. Hopefully I succeeded with that.

EDIT: My original translation here- [link]

Yay, someone sang it! :D [link] ( :iconbalnibarbi: )
And again! Double yay! [link] ( :iconkcutie417: )
Actual male vocals ftw! [link] ( :icondragonofusa2: )
Again, yay! [link] ( :iconbenevolentmalice: )
