[English]

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?

All around the world (We girls are like this)

That’s how we are (We girls are like this)

Since long ago, it’s been told

It’s a girl’s secret

The moment you eat it (The boys are like that)

It becomes addictive (The boys are like that)

Sweet, sweet candy, everyone jumps at it

Watch if you're smart

What do you really want to see?

Without giving any chance to hesitate, I stole your heart, heart, heart, heart

CANDY, I’m your fantasy

Because I’ll captivate you, don’t wake up

You want to get nervous, right? I’ll make it perfect

CANDY, the reason it’s sweet is

Just don’t know, so don’t wake up

You want to get nervous, right? It’s a real hard-action

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?

I know (We girls are like this)

Always, (We girls are like this)

I have the power to read everything in your mind

It’s a girl’s secret

That’s not easy (The boys are like that)

To buy things (The boys are like that)

Wanting more and more to get them

Yes, this is how we do

Just searching out the delicious parts and savoring them

In the midst of dreaming, I stole your heart, heart, heart, heart

(Once you get here, there's no going back.)

I’ve planned my strategy already

Now just let yourself go

A little bit of exaggeration is just right

Let’s meet again in dreams, yeah...

CANDY, I’m your fantasy

Because I’ll captivate you, don’t wake up

You want to get nervous, right? I’ll make it perfect

CANDY, the reason it’s sweet is

Just don’t know, so don’t wake up

You want to get nervous, right? It’s a real hard-action

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?

Red candy, do you want to try eating it?

Or do you want to eat the blue one?
