Lyrics & Translation

Learn Japanese with '魔性少女' by Phantom Siita! This song offers a chance to explore a darker, more theatrical side of Japanese pop culture and language. Through its 'retro horror' theme, you can learn vocabulary related to mystery, seduction, and the supernatural. The lyrics are poetic and carry a strong narrative, making it a captivating way to engage with Japanese expressions of allure and danger. What makes the song special is its unique blend of cute idol aesthetics with a creepy, unsettling storyline, a style not often seen in mainstream J-pop.

[English]

Your escape route is me; my charm draws you in

There's no place for you in the afterlife, so it can't be helped

Let's be attracted until we decay—be enchanted

Let's share a first kiss

This isn't just a dull drama—I'm toxic

It's like tying the threads of fate together

Playfully, boldly, I'll hold you tight—see, you're captivated

I'll take your heart along with mine—complain if you want, go on, go on

A supernatural phenomenon like magic, everyone's obsessed

I love you

Hey, your escape route is me; my charm draws you in

There's no place for you in the afterlife, so it can't be helped

Let's be attracted until we decay—be enchanted

Let's share a first kiss

Don't think about anything—feeling dissatisfied? That's my logic

It's like tying the threads of fate together

Playing around, easily deceived—you're clever, see, you're captivated

Hey, your escape route is me; my charm draws you in

There's no place for you in the afterlife, so it can't be helped

Let's be attracted until we decay—be enchanted

Your place is with me

That girl has no love for you

Then it can't be helped

Let's make a promise

Let's reveal everything

Hey, your escape route is me; my charm draws you in

There's no place for you in the afterlife, so it can't be helped

Let's be attracted until we decay—be enchanted

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah)

[Japanese]

あなたの逃げ場は私 魅力が引き寄せる

あの世にあなたの居場所はない ならば しょうがない

朽ちるまで惹かれましょう 魔性

はじめましてのキスをしましょう

味気ないだけのドラマと違う 私はトキシック

まるで運命の糸を結びつける

お遊び大胆に抱きしめてあげる ほら虜

奪っちゃった心ごと 恨み言をどうぞ さぁどうぞ どうぞ

魔法のような超常現象 誰もが夢中

愛してる

ねぇ あなたの逃げ場は私 魅力が引き寄せる

あの世にあなたの居場所はない ならば しょうがない

朽ちるまで惹かれましょう 魔性

はじめましてのキスをしましょう

何も考えないで なんだか不満？ 私のロジック

まるで運命の糸を結びつける

お遊び簡単に騙されてお利口 ほら虜

ねぇ あなたの逃げ場は私 魅力が引き寄せる

あの世にあなたの居場所はない ならば しょうがない

朽ちるまで惹かれましょう 魔性

あなたの居場所は私

あの子にあなたへの愛はない

ならば しょうがない

私たち契りましょう

明かしましょう

ねぇ あなたの逃げ場は私 魅力が引き寄せる

あの世にあなたの居場所はない ならば しょうがない

朽ちるまで惹かれましょう 魔性

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah)
