Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
1, 2, 3, 4!!

考え過ぎのメッセージ	kangae sugi no messeeji	I don't even know if this message
誰に届くかも知らないで	dare ni todoku kamo shirenai de	that I'm overly concerned with will reach anyone.
きっと私はいつでもそう	kitto watashi wa itsu demo sou	Surely, forever and ever, I will be
継ぎ接ぎ狂ったマトリョシカ	tsugihagi kurutta matoryoshika	a mad Matryoshka covered in patches.

頭痛が歌うパッケージ	zutsuu ga utau paakeeji	My headache is singing about a package.
いつまで経っても針は四時	itsumade tatte mo hari wa yoji	The clock's hand is stuck at 4 o'clock.
誰も教えてくれないで	dare mo oshiete kurenai de	No one would tell me why,
世界は逆さに回り出す	sekai wa sakasa ni mawaridasu	but the world has begun to rotate in reverse.

ああ、割れそうだ	aa, waresou da	Ah, I'm about to crack and burst,
記憶も全部投げ出して	kioku mo zenbu nagedashite	so I throw away all of my memories.
ああ、知りたいな	aa, shiritai na	Ah, I want to know,
深くまで	fukaku made	all the way to the bottom.

あのね、もっといっぱい舞って頂戴	ano ne, motto ippai matte choudai	Uh, would you please dance even more?
カリンカ？マリンカ？弦を弾いて	karinka? marinka? gen o hajiite	Kalinka? Malinka? Just pluck the strings.
こんな感情どうしようか？	konna kanjou doushiyou ka?	What should I do with this kind of emotions?
ちょっと教えてくれないか？	chotto oshiete kurenai ka?	Won't you please tell me?
感度良好 5-2-4	kando ryoukou 5-2-4	The signal reception is good, 5-2-4!^[1]
フロイト？ケロイド？鍵を叩いて	furoito? keroido? ken o hataite	Freud? Keloid? Just hit the keys.
全部全部笑っちゃおうぜ	zenbu zenbu waracchaou ze	Let's just laugh everything off.
さっさと踊れよ馬鹿溜まり	sassato odore yo baka damari	Hurry up and dance, you group of fools!

てんで幼稚な手を叩こう	tende youchi na te o tatakou	Together let's clap our childish hands
わざと狂った調子でほら	wazato kurutta choushi de hora	to this intentionally deranged rhythm,
きっと私はどうでもいい	kitto watashi wa dou demo ii	Surely, I couldn't care less about everything.
世界の温度が溶けていく	sekai no ondo ga tokete iku	The world's temperature is beginning to melt.

あなたと私でランデブー？	anata to watashi de randebuu?	You and I, having a rendezvous?
ランデブー？ほらランデブー？	randebuu? hora randebuu?	A rendezvous? A rendezvous?
あらま飛んでったアバンチュール？	arama tondetta abanchuuru?	Or maybe a unimaginable adventure?
足取り歪んで1,2,1,2	ashidori yugande 1, 2, 1, 2	With a crooked stepping, 1, 2, 1, 2.

ああ、吐きそうだ	aa, hakisou da	Ah, I'm about to throw up.
私の全部受け止めて	watashi no zenbu uketomete	Please accept me and everything about me.
ああ、その両手で	ah, sono ryoute de	Ah, with your two hands,
受け止めて	uketomete	please take me in.

あのね、ちょっと聞いてよ大事なこと	ano ne, chotto kiite yo daiji na koto	Uh, would you please listen to my important talk?
カリンカ？マリンカ？頬を抓って	karinka? marinka? hoo o tsunette	Kalinka? Malinka? Just pinch my cheeks.
だってだって我慢できないの	datte datte gaman dekinai no	I'm telling you, I can bear this no longer.
もっと素敵な事をしよう？	motto suteki na koto o shiyou?	Shall we try something even more wonderful?
痛い痛いなんて泣かないで	itai itai nante nakanaide	Don't cry while screaming "It hurts, it hurts!"
パレイド？マレイド？もっと叩いて	pareido? mareido? motto hataite	Parade? Marade? Just clap a bit more.
待ってなんて言って待って待って	matte nante itte matte matte	Asking you to wait, I wait and wait,
たった一人になる前に	tatta hitori ni naru mae ni	before I become completely alone.

あなたと私でランデブー？	anata to watashi de randebuu?	You and I, having a rendezvous?
ランデブー？ほらランデブー？	randebuu? hora randebuu?	A rendezvous? A rendezvous?
あらま飛んでったアバンチュール？	arama tondetta abanchuuru?	Or maybe a unimaginable adventure?
足取り歪んで1,2,1,2	ashidori yugande 1, 2, 1, 2	With a crooked stepping, 1, 2, 1, 2.
酔い潰せ歌い出せ今日もほら	(rai rai) yoi tsubuse (rai rai) utai dase (rai rai) kyou mo hora	(Lie, lie) Drink yourself wasted! (Lie, lie) Sing! (Lie, lie) Today, too,
継ぎ接ぎ狂ったマトリョシカ	tsugihagi kurutta matoryoshika	I'm a mad Matryoshka covered in patches.

もっと一杯舞って頂戴	(nee nee nee) motto ippai matte choudai	Uh, would you please dance even more?
カリンカ？マリンカ？弦を弾いて	karinka? marinka? gen o hajiite	Kalinka? Malinka? Just pluck the strings.
こんな感情どうしようか？	konna kanjou doushiyou ka?	What should I do with this kind of emotions?
ちょっと教えてくれないか？	chotto oshiete kurenai ka?	Won't you please tell me?

感度良好 5-2-4	kando ryoukou 5-2-4	The signal reception is good, 5-2-4!
フロイト？ケロイド？鍵を叩いて	furoito? keroido? ken o hataite	Freud? Keloid? Just hit the keys.
全部全部笑っちゃおうぜ	zenbu zenbu waracchaou ze	Let's just laugh everything off.
さっさと踊っていなくなれ	sassato odotte inaku nare	Dance quickly, and get out of my sight!

チュチュチュチュ	chu chu chu chu	kiss kiss kiss kiss
ラルラタイヤーイヤー	ra ru ra taiyaaiyaa	la lu la taiyaiya
アーイヤッタッタ	aa iyattatta	aa iyattatta
チュチュチュチュ	chu chu chu chu	kiss kiss kiss kiss
ラルラタイヤーイヤー	ra ru ra taiyaaiyaa	la lu la taiyaiya
アーイヤッタッタ	aa iyattatta	aa iyattatta
