Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

私が私の事を愛して

I'm sorry for loving myself

何が悪いの？ 嫉妬でしょうか？

What's wrong with that? Is it jealousy?

痛いだとか変わってるとか

They say it's painful or that I'm strange

届きませんね そのリプライ

That reply doesn't reach me

大好きなお洋服 大好きなお化粧で

In my favorite clothes and makeup

お決まりのハーフツイン巻いて

With my usual half-twin hairstyle

お出かけしよ 日傘持って ぼっちだって

Let's go out, holding an umbrella, even if I'm alone

幸せだもん！

I'm happy, you know!

チュ！ 可愛くてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being cute

生まれてきちゃってごめん

I'm sorry for being born

チュ！ あざとくてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being so calculated

気になっちゃうよね？ ごめん

You can't help but be curious, right? I'm sorry

チュ！ 可愛くてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being cute

努力しちゃっててごめん

I'm sorry for putting in the effort

チュ！ 尊くてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being precious

女子力高くてごめん

I'm sorry for having high feminine charm

ムカついちゃうよね？ ざまあ

It must annoy you, right? Tough luck

...

...

貴女は貴女の事だけどうぞ

Please just care about yourself

私に干渉しないでください

Don't interfere with me

類は友を呼ぶと言うけど

They say birds of a feather flock together

届きませんね その陰口

That gossip doesn't reach me

重い厚底ブーツ お気に入りのリュックで

In my favorite chunky boots and backpack

崩せない前髪くしでといて

I can't mess up my bangs, so I comb them

お出かけしよ 軽い女？ ふざけんな

Let's go out, a light girl? Don't joke around

重すぎるっつーの！

It's too much!

チュ！ 可愛くてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being cute

この時代生きてごめん

I'm sorry for living in this era

チュ！ 目立っててごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for standing out

意識しちゃうよね？ ごめん

You can't help but notice, right? I'm sorry

チュ！ 可愛くてごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being cute

自分磨きしてごめん

I'm sorry for self-improvement

チュ！ ぶりっ子でごめん

Kiss! I'm sorry for being a bit of a show-off

虜にしちゃってごめん

I'm sorry for captivating you

ムカついちゃうでしょ？ ざまあ

It must annoy you, right? Tough luck

趣味の違い 変わり者と

Different hobbies, being an oddball

バカにされても

Even if I'm ridiculed

曲げたくない 怖くもない

I don't want to bend, I'm not scared

あんたらごとき

People like you

自分の味方は自分でありたい

I want to be my own ally

一番大切にしてあげたい

I want to cherish the most important person

理不尽な我慢はさせたくない

I don't want to make you endure unreasonable things

「それが私」

"That's just me"
