Source: lyrical-nonsense Kanji = もう救えない　スクラブばかりのブルペンじゃ ちゃちな青春も　お涙も　それすらないもんな 相当に笑えない　コメディのワンシーンもままならない 冷めたチャウダーを　ただ混ぜ合わした　さもそんな人生さ

掛け違えたボタンの身なりを　いつのいつまで見ぬ振りしようか そうかい　抗弁のしようもないな

たまたま火事場に逃げ込んで　善かれと油を放り込んで 生活も　計画も　全部がpotatoになっていく ぐつぐつ明日が泡吹いて　白目のままに茹で上がって 将来像　成功法　全部がpotatoになっていく

このままみんなで浸り散らかして　どろどろに未来を溶かして そんな暮らしのままでKUSHA KUSHAになっていこうぜ

もう時間がない　我等に見下す権利などない 有象無象が発した　ブーイングも　今なら勲章さ 相当に笑えない　誰だってそう言わざるを得ない バカの一つ覚えのように　空回って　ただバターになっている

始めはこんなつもりじゃなかった　誰か信じてくれやしないか 一切、反証の余地はないが

あたかも何も知らぬ顔で　ここぞと薪を投げ込んで 生活も　計画も　全部がpotatoになっていく こんがり明日が煮え切って　姿見えぬほど燃え上がって 将来像　成功法　全部がpotatoになっていく

このままみんなで浸り散らかして　どろどろに未来を溶かして そんなボウルの中で憂さ晴らしだとかしようぜ そんな暮らしのままでKUSHA KUSHAになっていこうぜ

Source: Official Lyrics English = It's over. The bullpen is full of scrubs The cheap memories of youth, the tears, everything's over It's not even funny. It can't even make up one scene in a comedy Like stirring a bowl of cold chowder, that's how my life is

Let's just keep pretending the dress isn't buttoned up wrong Oh right, it's meaningless to defense

Accidentally get away with a scene of fire, pour oil in with a good deed My life and my plan are turning into potatoes Bring tomorrow to a simmer with little bubbles, boil up the icy stares Blueprint of the future and the way to success are turning into potatoes

Just soak the mess in, melt the future and make it thick Live such a life and let's all get crumpled

There's no time, no right to look down on us all The rabble goes off. Booing becomes medals of honor now It's not even funny. Everybody would have to say that Like foolishly making a fruitless effort, becoming nothing but a chunk of butter

It wasn't intentional at first. Will somebody trust me? There's no room for disproof at all

Thinking now is the right time, I throw in some firewood ignorantly, so to speak My life and my plan are turning into potatoes Thoroughly cook the browned tomorrow, burn it down to not a thing left Blueprint of the future and the way to success are turning into potatoes

Just soak the mess in, melt the future and make it thick Let's have our recreation and stuffs in such a bowl Live such a life and let's all get crumpled
