Well, I can understand why everyone's idea as to the meaning of this song varies so drastically; it's not translated too well ^^"

These lyrics, as well as the majority of the songs on Kisou, possess a heavy theme of perversion and deviance. This song being particularly voyeuristic in nature, though…

Perhaps you'll notice the first verse for example… A narrative of a man peeking at a woman, whom we can all assume is either doing something "dirty" or has had something "dirty" done to her, who is pregnant and grinning sardonically… The rest of song seems to be mostly about pregnancy and perversion.

Thusly, the song would seem to be encircling mainly three themes: Voyeurism, Pregnancy, and Sexual Deviance… As I've never been one for presumption, I will say that this, is in the end, is merely my interpretation of the song and could be entirely wrong (as Kyo does enjoy his wordplay and his equivocacy).

But if you all were to read a more accurate translation of this song, I'd hope that you'd find me to be at least somewhat accurate ^^"
