Kanji[]

オレンジのスライド映す空

スポンジのプライドぶらさげて

スパイダー
生け捕ったその予感は
隠さなくたっていいんだ
色のついた夢見たいな

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ride on shooting star
心の声で散弾銃のように
唄い続けた

グランジのハムスター大人びて
リベンジのロブスター引き連れて

スナイパー
ふちどったその世界に
何が見えるって言うんだ
狙う前に触わりたいな

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ride on shooting star
キミを探して禁断症状中
嘘をついた

Ride on shooting star
心の声で散弾銃のように
唄い続けた

Pe, pe, ru, pe, pe, ru, yeah
Ah, ah, ooh, yeah

English[]

The sky reflects an orange slide

and hangs down a spongy pride

A spider
had a premonition of being captured alive,
so it did not bother to hide.
It wanted to dream in color

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ride on shooting star
With the voice of my heart, like a shotgun
I kept on singing

A grunge hamster comes of age
and is accompanied by a vengeful lobster

Sniper
I asked
What can you see in that fringed world?
I want to touch it before I take aim

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ride on shooting star
Searching for you while having withdrawal symptoms
I told a lie

Ride on shooting star
With the voice of my heart, like a shotgun
I kept on singing

Pe, pe, ru, pe, pe, ru, yeah
Ah, ah, ooh, yeah
