Japanese	Romaji	English
今日も今日とて急降下	kyou mo kyou tote kyuukouka	Day in and day out, my
ヒトモドキのQOL	hitomodoki no QOL	human-mimicking QOL nosedives.
世界平和を願って自分のこと歌ってる	sekai heiwa o negatte jibun no koto utatteru	I’m singing about myself while wishing for world peace.
言葉に意味が無いとか	kotoba ni imi ga nai toka	Words don’t have any meanings?
そんなこと言わなくてもいいのにさあ	sonna koto iwanakute mo ii no ni saa	Oh, you don’t have to say that!
ここはまるで遊園地	koko wa maru de yuenchi	This place’s like an amusement park,
悲喜交々のフランチャイズ	hiki komogomo no furanchaizu	under franchise of various emotions.
全然みんな関係がない	zenzen minna kankei ga nai	Nobody has nothing to do with it at all!
ほんとに誰も見たことない	honto ni dare mo mita koto nai	Nobody’s seen that, indeed nobody!
でもなんか知ってそうだ！	demo nanka shitte sou da!	But you do seem to know something!
つまりこれはあのその、あれだ！	tsumari kore wa ano sono, are da!	I mean this is, um, it’s like, that!
そういうことだよ、そうそう！そうそう！	sou iu koto da yo, sou sou! sou sou!	Yeah, that’s what I mean, yes, yes! Yes, yes!
いや、違う！あれどれだっけ？	iya, chigau! are dore dakke?	Wait, that’s wrong! But, oh, what was it?
頭メリーゴーランド	atama meriigoorando	My head’s like a merry-go-round.
そう、それね！わかるよそれね！	sou, sore ne! wakaru yo sore ne!	Yup, it’s that! I know, that’s right!
あれ違うっけ？いやそうだよ！	are chigau kke? iya sou da yo!	Wait, is it wrong? Nah, it must be that!
何、違う？やっぱり違う？	nani, chigau? yappari chigau?	What, it’s wrong? It’s wrong after all?
今更教えないでよ、、、	imasara oshienaide yo,,,	It’s too late to tell me that…
ところでここサビだっけ？	tokoro de koko sabi dakke?	By the way, is this the climax of this song?
伝えたいことなんだっけ！？	tsutaetai koto nandakke!?	Stuff I want to tell you… wait, what was that?!
ここまで続けてたのに急にパタリ消えちゃって	koko made tsuzuketeta no ni kyuu ni patari kiechatte	You had been continuing up to now, but you disappeared all of a sudden.
これから復活願ってアナタに魔法を掛けましょう	kore kara fukkatsu negatte anata ni mahou o kakemashou	Wishing for you to come back, I shall cast a spell on you.
アブラカタブラなマシマシヤサイと	aburakatabura na mashimashiyasai to	Abracadabra, well I’ll add some veggies,
ニンニクカラメで、、、あれ、違う	ninnikukarame de,,, are, chigau	and garlic with soy sauce… No, that’s not right!
アブラカタブラな魔法の呪文でこれからあなたは	aburakatabura na mahou no jumon de kore kara anata wa	Abracadabra, with this magical spell, you’re going to be…
あれ！やばい！違う！違う！	are! yabai! chigau! chigau!	What? Oh no! It’s wrong! It’s wrong!
ダメ！これ！違う！違う！	dame! kore! chigau! chigau!	This! Won’t do! It’s wrong! It’s wrong!
つまりこれはあのその、あれだ！	tsumari kore wa ano sono, are da!	I mean this is, um, it’s like, that!
そういうことだよ、そうそう！そうそう！	sou iu koto da yo, sou sou! sou sou!	Yeah, that’s what I mean, yes, yes! Yes, yes!
いや、違う！あれどれだっけ？	iya, chigau! are dore dakke?	Wait, that’s wrong! But, oh, what was it?
頭メリーゴーランド	atama meriigoorando	My head’s like a merry-go-round.
本当はねそう最初から、、、	hontou wa ne sou saisho kara,,,	The truth is, yes, from the beginning, I…
いや、辞めとくわ！いや本当に！	iya, yame toku wa! iya hontou ni!	um, maybe I should stop saying this. Oh, please!
そんなこと今言われても	sonna koto ima iwarete mo	You don’t have to say that now…
今からギターソロだから！	ima kara gitaasoro dakara!	‘cause the guitar solo is about to start!
つまりこれはあのその、あれだ！	tsumari kore wa ano sono, are da!	I mean this is, um, it’s like, that!
そういうことだよ、そうそう！そうそう！	sou iu koto da yo, sou sou! sou sou!	Yeah, that’s what I mean, yes, yes! Yes, yes!
いや、違う！あれどうだっけ？	iya, chigau! are dou dakke?	Wait, that’s wrong! But, oh, what was it?
頭メリーゴーランド	atama meriigoorando	My head’s like a merry-go-round.
そう、これね！わかるよあれね！	sou, kore ne! wakaru yo are ne!	Yup, it’s that! I know, that’s right!
あれ違うっけ？いやそうだよ！	are chigau kke? iya sou da yo!	Wait, is it wrong? Nah, it must be that!
何、違う？やっぱり違う？	nani, chigau? yappari chigau?	What, it’s wrong? It’s wrong after all?
今更怒らないでよ、、、	imasara okoranaide yo,,,	Please just don’t get mad at this stage…
ところでもう終わりだっけ？	tokoro de mou owari dakke?	By the way, is this song ending?
伝えたいことなんだっけ！？	tsutaetai koto nandakke!?	Stuff I want to tell you… wait, what was that?!
