Description
The song is like something cut out of a strange, vivid dream, where a sand dance dances against a pink and orange sunset, and someone, without batting an eyelid, says “シーラカンス” (Coelacanth) - and for some reason, it becomes a little warmer. It's not about sadness or joy, but about that moment on the border between “still together” and “already apart.” When you want to hug, push away, and sing the alphabet as if it were a spell for a broken heart. It's ridiculous, noisy, fun, a little philosophical. And with a slight smile as a farewell.
Lyrics and translation
Original
1, 2 1,2,3,4
あの海に架かる虹を⾒たか
⼣映えに染まるサンダンス
幸せを告げる鐘は遥か
永久に笑うシーラカンス
シーラカンス
シーラカンス
このままさよならするのは 寂し過ぎるだろう
でもメソメソ泣いたりするのも なんか⾟気臭いだろう
⼀番⼤事なことは 今を感じ合うことさ
考える葦は⼈になる
バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ
出会いと別れのパラドックス
あいうえおいらはいつでも⼀匹狼
かきくけこれでもお前を愛してるんだぜ
さしすせそんな⽬で⾒つめちゃどうにかなっちゃうぜ
たちつてとんびが鷹になる
なにぬねのんきに歌なぞ歌っているけど
はひふへほんきで世界の明⽇を憂いているのさ
まみむめもっともお前は気のない素振り
やゆよなおもいで⽖を噛む
バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ
繰り返すほどにハイになる
バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ バイバイ
⽣き耐えるうちに灰とかす
どうせ宇宙の不条理さ
何もお前さんだけ尻込みするこたぁねえよ
神のご加護かアラートか
なりふり構わず素⾯しらふで⾶び出せ
このままさよならするのは 寂し過ぎるだろう
でもメソメソ泣いたりするのも なんか⾟気臭えだろう
⼀番⼤事なことは 今を感じ合うことさ
考える葦は⼈に say!
考える葦は⼈になる
はい バイバイ
Yes, yes, yes
English translation
Did you see the rainbow over that sea?
A sundance dyed in the sunset
The bell that announces happiness is far away
A coelacanth that laughs forever
Coelacanth
Coelacanth
It would be too sad to say goodbye like this
But crying and sobbing is also somehow annoying
The most important thing is to feel the present
A thinking reed becomes a person
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
The paradox of meeting and parting
I am always a lone wolf
I love you, even if you think so
Don't look at me with those eyes, I'll go crazy
A kite becomes a hawk
I'm singing a carefree song
But I'm seriously worried about the world's tomorrow
You look the most uninterested
I bite my nails with memories
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
I get high as I repeat
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
I turn to ashes while enduring life
Anyway, it's the absurdity of the universe
You don't have to be the only one to hesitate
Is it God's blessing or an alert?
Run out with a bare face and sober
It would be too sad to say goodbye like this
But crying and sobbing is somehow annoying
The most important thing is to feel the present
A thinking reed is say!
A thinking reed becomes a person
Yes, bye bye
Yes, yes, yes
