Question: how come a cartoon about giant robots blowing each other up has a themesong with lyrics about letting love guide the way, and looking to the stars and shit?

Seriously, it seems like any time I watch an anime (which is not often) and the opening theme is subtitled, the lyrics are always things like "I'M GONNA LET MY LOVE LEAD THE WAY, LOOK TO THE STARS, I'M FREE TO LET THE STARS OF MY LOVE LEAD THE WAY TO MY HEART" or something equally ridiculous. And while a Japanese woman is passionately singing these lyrics, the images that I am looking at are a bunch of dudes with weird haircuts and some girl in a bikini flying robot fighter jet machine gun tanks.

Burn Gundam!
You! Run!
You're still burning will rage
If the fighting spirit is in your nature
The powerful enemy
Attacks, attacks, attacks
The rage of justice
Meets the Gundam

But yeah. Then it goes

You're still sinking into despair
If you're certainly sad
Dispell the fear
Go on, go on, go on
The swirling tide of blood

You! Catch!
If your love still trembles
In your heart and nature
That yearns for peace

So meh.. But then it goes

Fly, fly, fly
Towards the Miky Way
Fly Gundam!
Mobile Suit Gundam! Gundam!

And then it's all cool again.

Congratulations, you figured out that mecha is sort of stupid and nonsensical at times.

Even shows with otherwise badass musical scores do this.
