ゴキブリの味 (The Taste of Cockroach) lyrics with English translation

心躍る とびきりの毎日を (ワクワク ドキドキ)

A heart-fluttering, extraordinary everyday life (Exciting, thrilling)

過ごせば、ほら！ みんなが幸せ (May you have a good day!)

If we spend it together, look! Everyone's happy (May you have a good day!)

いつの日にか、 大きな夢を輝かせ

Someday, let's make our big dreams shine

思い切り笑うんだ！

Let's laugh with all our might!

踏み出そう！ 落ち込んでちゃ つまんない (気楽に お気楽に)

Let's take a step forward! Staying down is just boring (Relax and be carefree)

繋がろう！ みんなで輪になって (ともだち なかまたち)

Let's connect! Everyone forming a circle (Friends, companions)

誰もが未来へのチャレンジャー

Everyone's a challenger towards the future

そりゃやっぱり傷つくこともあるけど...

Of course, sometimes it hurts...

こんな風にか？

Like this, perhaps?

手を取ろう！ 固く結ぶ絆 (ともだち なかまたち)

Let's hold hands! With bonds that tie us tight (Friends, companions)

くだらない個性は矯正なおしましょう。 (失格 失敗作)

Let's correct these pointless quirks. (Disqualified, a failed creation)

悪者見つけたら全員で

When we find the bad guys, everyone together

思いっきり正義の炎あびせよう (とんだ正義感)

Let's bathe in the flames of justice with all our might (What a sense of justice!)

お気の毒な あの子達からしたら (負け組 負け組)

For those poor kids, it must be tough (Losers, losers)

眩しすぎる 僕らの可能性 (無限の可能性)

Our potential shines too brightly (Infinite possibilities)

誰誰かの不幸せには

As for someone's unhappiness,

ノータッチだと人の不幸に無関心で

If you stay uninvolved, they'll see you as indifferent to others' misfortunes,

冷酷な人間だと思われる恐れがあるので

You might be thought of as a cold-hearted person,

手短かな同情とかお悔やみで

With brief sympathy or condolences,

自分の好感度上昇チャンスに変えて

You turn it into a chance to raise your own likability.

思い切り哂うんだ！

Laugh with all your might!

断ち切ろう 道徳にお別れ (目障り 言いがかり)

Let's sever ties, say goodbye to morality (a nuisance, a baseless accusation)

割り切ろう 世迷い言終わらせ (和やかとさようなら)

Let's cut it out, end this whimsical talk (farewell to tranquility)

気付けそう？ 内集団バイアス ("分かち合い"...って馬鹿みたい)

Can you notice? The in-group bias ("Sharing"... sounds foolish, doesn't it?)

呆れそう あなたの率先励行 (かなわない 頭固い)

I'm amazed by your proactive commitment (unmatched, so stubborn)

誰もが唯一人のオンリーワン！ (...？)

Everyone is a unique, one-of-a-kind individual! (...?)

そりゃ ほとんどは無価値な子ばかりだけど (！？ こいつ正気か...？)

Sure, most are worthless kids (!? Is this guy sane...?)

泣かないで 大切な人

Don't cry, my precious person.

あなうらめしや 名に負う聖者

Oh, how I envy you, the saint bearing your name.

諦めないで 大切な人

Don't give up, my precious person.

あないさましや たぶれたる意気

Hey there, my spirit's aflame with energy,

心躍る とびきりの毎日を (それは無い、それが無い)

Every day is a thrill, it's a dazzling delight! (That's not true, that's not the case)

過ごせば、ほら！ みんなが幸せ (腐ってんの？脳天)

Just look around, everyone’s smiling with glee (What's rotten? In my head?)

反吐が出るな あの子のことを皆して

I can't help but gag when everyone talks about that girl,

思い切り嗤うんだ

I'm going to laugh wholeheartedly,

滅茶苦茶にしちゃうんだ

I'm going to completely wreck it,

The whole thing I think it's sick

The whole thing I think it's sick

The whole thing I think it's sick

The whole thing I think it's sick
