A-ha 不穏な幕開け A-ha 今すぐ飛び乗れ

Pretending to be calm, the cast boils over

If you show even a moment's weakness, there's no escape

知らぬ間にChange your side 痺れる狡猾さ

Change your side without even knowing, the cunning is numbing

エラーコードの海原で踊り明かせ

Dance the night away in a sea of error codes

Jealous show, Can’t stop! 視線絡め合いHot

Jealous show, Can't stop! Our gazes intertwine, so hot

"Bad Love", so sweet, Baby

She screams “Jealousy!” 拉がれずに愛し

She screams "Jealousy!" Loving without being dragged down

Is this “Bad Love”!? 悪くないね “Bad Love”

Is this "Bad Love"!? Not bad, "Bad Love"
