Lyrics

The term "Usseewa", roughly equivalent to "Shut the fuck up" in English, has been the topic of much debate. In particular, many parents in Japan have been worried about the effects of the song's lyrical content on young children. This subject was brought up on Fuji TV's High Noon TV Viking! MORE, as many children had started singing, or mimicking the song's lyrics in their speech. This has resulted in some nursery schools and kindergartens banning the song.[4][15] Vorlage:Ill, on the other hand, argues that children may sing the song just because it is catchy, and not even understand the meaning of the words. She further states that it is almost impossible to avoid children hearing the song, as it is a major hit song played widely on TV and in shopping facilities.[4]

Ado has expressed that the lyrics of the song are meant to help relieve stress of her audience by resonating with their frustrations. She further states that she "sing[s] people's anger in their place, because [she] want[s] them to live positively."[16]
