Lyrics

それじゃお話にならない
すべての真実に今すぐ土下座
sore ja ohanashi ni naranai
subete no hontou ni ima sugu dogeza

嗚呼カラカラカラ空回り
安いおもちゃの様な言葉達
あれよあれよと吹き出した
出鱈目デカダンス
aa kara kara kara karamawari
yasui omocha no you na kotobatachi
are yo are yo to fukidashita
detarame dekadansu

無い者は有る者をただ羨む
nai mono wa aru mono wo tada urayamu

手を伸ばし掴もうとはせずに
今あるものを並べるゲーム
それじゃお話にならない
使った言葉に今すぐ土下座
te wo nobashi tsukamou to wa sezu ni
ima aru mono wo naraberu geemu
sore ja ohanashi ni naranai
tsukatta kotoba ni ima sugu dogeza

嗚呼キラキラキラ輝いた
フェイクダイアの様なガラス玉
騙し騙しで生きてきた
無茶苦茶なバランス
aa kira kira kira kagayaita
feiku daia no you na garasudama
damashidamashi de ikite kita
muchakucha na baransu

無い者が無い者をまた蔑む
nai mono ga nai mono wo mata sagesumu

眼を開き見ようともせずに
苦労自慢を並べるゲーム
「クレバー」そう言われたいだけ
すべての真実に今すぐ土下座
me wo hiraki miyou tomosezu ni
kurou jiman wo naraberu geemu
“kurebaa” sou iwaretai dake
subete no hontou ni ima sugu dogeza

手を伸ばし掴もうとはせずに
今あるものを並べるゲーム
「クレバー」そう言われたいだけ
すべての真実に今すぐ土下座
te wo nobashi tsukamou to wa sezu ni
ima aru mono wo naraberu geemu
“kurebaa” sou iwaretai dake
subete no hontou ni ima sugu dogeza

Translation

Well, there’s no way to talk
Now kneel down to the whole truth

Ah, this is such a fruitless effort
These words are like cheap toys
Suddenly, I burst into laughter
It’s a nonsensical decadence

Those who have nothing just envy those who have something

Instead of reaching out and grabbing it
We play a game where we line up what we have now
Well, there’s no way to talk
Now kneel down to the spoken words

Ah, it’s sparkling so brightly
This glass sphere is like a fake diamond
I’ve been living by using every trick
It’s an unrealistic balance

Those who have nothing still despise those who have nothing

Without even opening our eyes to see
We play a game where we brag about hardships
“Clever” is all I want to be said
Now kneel down to the whole truth

Instead of reaching out and grabbing it
We play a game where we line up what we have now
“Clever” is all I want to be said
Now kneel down to the whole truth
