The song Jessica performs in the PS3 version of Umineko. Subs in captions - there's a hell of a lot of references/puns, so look at the description. And good god, that ending O_o It sounds like she chugged 10 Red Bulls or something XD SWEEEEEEETSSS

The title itself is a meme reference - in short, Sweets (lol) is a phrase making fun of women who blindly follow mainstream trends. Here's a page on it ~ bangin.wordpress.com/2009/03/07/%E3%82%B9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%BC%E3%83%84%EF%BC%88%E7%AC%91%EF%BC%89sweetswarai

First of all, the first four lines have puns (that's why they're so random XP):
------------------Oh, men! (Mou, Men!), Moment, and "cotton" (moumen) all sound the same...
------------------Show me! and "weight" (shoumi) sound the same
------------------Hiking and "back muscles" (haikin) sound the same
------------------Show Time! and "invite" (shoutai) sorta sound the same

(lol) - She literally pronounces this as "lol in parentheses" (kakko no nakami de) in japanese XD It would be written as (w) and is a pretty common bit of net slang.

Just kidding - written and pronounced as JK, more slang

Cotton Tofu - Cotton is a type of tofu that's firmer and generally better for most cooking, like sushi. The other kind is silk tofu, which is squishier and softer and generally better for blending or putting into miso soup.

"Here I come!" - "kitakore," sometimes written ktkr, is net/niconico slang for "Here it comes!/I can't wait!/ It's out!" I'm pretty sure the Witch Hunt did a grimoire on this one back in EP2.

tsuntsun - being cold and icy. "The aloof" side of the tsundere archetype

NicoNico - Obviously the name of a certain video site this song likes to parody~ But literally translated, it means "smiling." Combined with tsuntsun, it gives off a tsundere vibe.

"no stranger..." Ok, that line was full of innuendo. Cutesy, subtle innuendo though. I tried to get that right...

"denpa" - A genre of catchy electronic music with nonsensical/occasionally creepy lyrics - btw, the genre got it's name from a drugged-up guy who slashed up random people in broad daylight, claiming that the "denpa" (electronic/radio waves) in his head told him to do it. Hence the "telepathy" line... (don't believe me? here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denpa_song)

riajuu - Another pun. "Riajuu" sounds just like the english phrase "Read You" (This is coming off the telepathy line, so Mind reading, read your mind, yadayada). But "riajuu" is also somewhat-resentful otaku terminology for a nerd that also has a fulfilling real life (generally taken to mean "has a boyfriend/girlfriend").

"Bumbow's the 'captain' " - Ok, the best I could make of this is that it's a two part pun/reference thing - first, Bumboo (bumpety boo), for what I could tell, was some sort of 1980s children's anime about a car that drove itself. It's spelled differently, but they've done stuff like this before (Delsney World, Moho Project, Wanted: Alive or Dead come to mind). So I guess the Umineko version would be "a boat that drives itself?" Hence the captain. The other half of this phrase is a simple pun with numbers: Juuchou is 10 trillion, Hyakuchou 100 trillion, Senchou would come next (meaning 1000 trillion, or a quadrillion. Though another kanji could be used... it can be written this way as well). However, Senchou sounds like "captain," hence the pun.

janjan ronpa - might be a Dangan Ronpa reference, because it just sounds so similar (and the second word is the same)

chucchu poppo - onomatopoeia for huffing and puffing like a train (or out of breath)

...I think that's all. Though I've probably missed some. If you catch any more references/interesting stuff, leave a comment~
