Japanese	Romaji	English
幼いころに憧れてた	osanai koro ni akogareteta	When I was little I admired
絵本の中から　とびだしたパレード	ehon no naka kara tobidashita pareedo	the parades that would jump out of picture books.
キラキラ　眩しい光の先に	kirakira mabushii hikari no saki ni	They told me about the illusion of the circus
まぼろしのサーカス　教えてくれた	maboroshi no saakasu oshiete kureta	beneath the sparkling, dazzling light.
おどけて笑う道化師が	odokete warau doukeshi ga	Clowns that would fool around and smile
手招いている　その場所へ	temaneite iru sono basho e	beckoned me there.
どこまでもパレード	dokomademo pareedo	Parades everywhere you go
暗闇の中に　突然あらわれた	kurayami no naka ni totsuzen arawareta	They suddenly appeared out of the darkness.
いつまでもパレード	itsumademo pareedo	Parades keep on going.
それはホントの夢みたいな夢	sore wa honto no yume mitai na yume	It was a dream that seemed like a dream come true.
呪文を唱えれば　なんでも叶う	jumon o tonaereba nan demo kanau	If you recite the spell, you can have anything.
好きなあの子も　ふりむかせられる	suki na ano ko mo furimukaserareru	You can get the girl you like to take notice of you.
欲しいモノぜんぶ手に入れたあと	hoshii mono zenbu te ni ireta ato	After you've gotten everything you wanted,
ワナに気づいたって　もう手遅れ	wana ni kizuita tte mou teokure	even if you realize it's a trap, it's too late.
不気味に嘲笑(わら)う道化師が	bukimi ni warau doukeshi ga	Where the weirdly sneering clowns
連れだした場所　落とし穴さ	tsuredashita basho otoshiana sa	have taken you is a pitfall.
とびこんだパレード	tobikonda pareedo	I jumped into the parade
知らない間に　抜け出せなくなった	shiranai aida ni nukedasenaku natta	where before I knew it I couldn't get out.
いじわるなパレード	ijiwaru na pareedo	The nasty parade
仮面の裏側　見せてはくれないね	kamen no uragawa misete wa kurenai ne	doesn't show what's behind the mask.
大人になって判るコト	otona ni natte wakaru koto	What I realized when I grew up
手の鳴る方へ	te no naru hou e	is to always follow the leader
いつでも前ならえ	itsudemo mae nara e	in the direction they clap.
本当はパペット	hontou wa papetto	In reality it's the puppet that
ボクらをあやつって　食べつくしてしまう	bokura o ayatsutte tabetsukushite shimau	manipulates us and gobbles us up.
とらわれたパレード	torawareta pareedo	We're caught in the parade.
それがホントの嘘みたいな現実(リアル)	sore ga honto no uso mitai na riaru	That's the reality that seems like the real lie.
ぬけだしてパレード	nukedashite pareedo	Get out of the parade
かすんで見えないメジルシを頼りに	kasunde mienai mejirushi o tayori ni	relying on landmarks too hazy to see.
終わらないパレード	owaranai pareedo	The unending parade,
晴れだって雨だって	hare datte ame datte	come rain or shine
パレードオンパレード	pareedo on pareedo	it's a parade on parade.
