[English]

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Gimme! Gimme!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (E.G.! E.G.!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Gimme! Gimme!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Easy! Easy!)

The temperature is soaring rapidly, Heat & Beat sticking to my skin

Jutting my thumb up at the sky, I hitched a ride with the sun

My body feeling so hot I can't even touch

It doesn’t matter, just try to hold me tight?

You, too, with the same intensity, try to handle this love

It’d be great if the heat could make your heart burn up

Become a summer that melts away if you get too dizzy!

So we are summer, summer, summer riders, Heading to the beach, driving all the way

Passing through an arch of dazzling light

When you hear the sound of the waves, a new breeze blows, just for us

Summer’s here! Shining boy! Shining girl! We are summer riders!

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Gimme! Gimme!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (E.G.! E.G.!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Gimme! Gimme!)

Sun Sun Summer Rider (Easy! Easy!)

My throat’s so dry, I need some quick refreshment

The hot wind feels like it’s stabbing my chest Please give me a splash of cold water

ジリジリ温度急上昇 肌に貼りつくHeat & Beat

空に親指立てて 太陽ヒッチハイクしたのよ

触（さわ）れないほど火照（ほて）るカラダ

構わないから抱きしめてごらん?

キミも同じ熱量（キモチ）で 恋を乗りこなしてみて

Heartが焦げるくらい暑くなればいい

ボヤボヤしたら溶けちゃうような ナツになれ!

So We Are Summer Summer Summer Riders 海まで 飛ばして Drivin’

眩しい 光の アーチをくぐり抜け

波音聞いたら 吹いてくる New Breeze キミと私に

ナツが来た! Shinin’ Boy! Shinin’ Girl! We Are Summer Riders!
