[English]

How wonderful to instantly fall into this inner cycle

I'm just an otaku, all by myself

Even my daydreams are scientific

As I shrink with Doraemon's shrink ray

Stepping inside, slowly observing

Gazing at the giant uvula

Splashing water everywhere

Breathe in, breathe out, with simple courage

Slowly stepping into the esophagus

Let the bloodstream carry me, embracing me

Wave after wave, pushing me higher, hoo

Who dares challenge the formidable stomach acid?

Sweet, sour, bitter, all instantly digested

Passing through blood vessels, seeing the magnificent heartbeat, do we find love?

Wake up, quickly dive into this vast universe

Get up, the darkest depths are filled with stars

Peeking into secrets within the nerves

Hiding in a warm haven within pores

Wake up, it's so fascinating, waiting for you to uncover

Get outta my sight

Let me hold my body tight

I'm working all day all night

Still nothing's gonna bring me down

Why should I turn around?

Dare you to come a little closer

Take a look but make no sound

The grand structure is the spine

Even if my knees feel weak

Take a breath, relax, soothe your mind

All is silent, don't move your body

The password is in the genes, it's a function

Who wants to reassemble it, hoo

Growing up and old, gradually letting go

Sweet, sour, bitter, a long novel

Deep within the brain

That ancient hippocampus, embracing all experiences

Wake up, quickly dive into this vast universe

Get up, the darkest depths are filled with stars

Peeking into secrets within the nerves (wake up)

Hiding in a warm haven within pores

Wake up, it's so fascinating, waiting for you to uncover

Make a name for it make a name (let's do it)

DNA, it's a different game (let's play it)

On the run, hold up (uh)

Got my body on panic

These hundred feelings coming through my veins

Well, take a pick (hey)

If even the gut feels pain

The beat rises again, spinning, dancing, woo

Wake up, quickly dive into this vast universe

Get up, the darkest depths are filled with stars

Peeking into secrets within the nerves

Hiding in a warm haven within pores

Wake up, it's so fascinating, waiting for you to uncover

Wake up, with every connection

Get up, with every posture and every pose

Wake up, for a lifetime

How wonderful this small universe continues to cycle

The extraordinary meridians have long opened their eight channels

The pineal gland has long seen through gains and losses

Wake up, it's so fascinating, it's a gift waiting for you to unwrap

...

Wake up

Get up

[Chinese]

奇妙在瞬間 跌入這內循環

御宅族就是 我一個

白日夢亦是 理科

隨著小叮噹 收縮槍 縮小的我

入內在 慢慢觀摩

望著巨大 吊鐘

水花不分 西東

呼一呼 吸一吸 匹夫之勇

慢慢步入 食道 之中

讓血脈拋起我 被環抱

浪接浪衝更高 hoo

誰敢挑戰 胃酸可怕

甜酸苦澀 隨即消化

穿過心血管 看心跳多壯觀 發現愛嗎

Wake up 快跳進 這壯闊 宇宙

Get up 最暗處 載滿了 星斗

神經之中 窺探秘密

毛孔之中 躲進溫室

Wake up 太有趣 要你去 發掘

Get outta my sight

Let me hold my body tight

I'm working all day all night

Still nothing's gonna bring me down

Why should I turn around?

Dare you to come a little closer

Take a look but make no sound

大陣就是 脊椎

即使雙膝 空虛

唞一唞 鬆一鬆 安撫思緒

萬籟寂靜 別動 身軀

密碼在基因裡 是函數

誰要重新嵌組 hoo

成長終老 逐點解脫

甜酸苦澀 長篇小說

於腦海最底

那古老海馬體 笑納百川

Wake up 快跳進 這壯闊 宇宙

Get up 最暗處 載滿了 星斗

神經之中 窺探秘密（wake up）

毛孔之中 躲進溫室

Wake up 太有趣 要你去 發掘

Make a name for it make a name (let's do it)

DNA, it's a different game (let's play it)

On the run, hold up (uh)

Got my body on panic

These hundred feelings coming through my veins

Well, take a pick (hey)

如腸道也感到 苦楚

拍子 再起 轉圈 舞起 woo

Wake up 快跳進 這壯闊 宇宙

Get up 最暗處 載滿了 星斗

神經之中 窺探秘密

毛孔之中 躲進溫室

Wake up 太有趣 要你去 發掘

Wake up 一經一緯

Get up 一姿一勢

Wake up 一生一世

奇妙在這小宇宙 繼續循環

奇經一早 通了八脈

松果一早 睇透得失

Wake up 太有趣 要你拆 禮物

Wake up

Get up

Wake up
