"The English lyrics are listed below after the Japanese lyrics." [Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse] 並んでた観光地のチケットブース いきなり話しかけてきたネイティヴ 条件反射で「I can't speak English !」 家族からは大爆笑 [Pre-Chorus] ジェスチャーと笑顔でごまかして でも通じたみたいでホッとした [Chorus] ホットって言ったのにアイスがきたけど 伝わらない日々もちょっと好きかも 電話回されて「Why me!?」と心で叫ぶ 「I can't speak English !」  それが合言葉 [Interlude] [Verse] 英検三級それっきりのレベルで 話すチャンスなんて今までなかった 話したい気持ちはあるのに いざその時は頭真っ白 [Pre-Chorus] 話終わったあといつも翻訳アプリを思い出す でも本当は何も頼らず話してみたい [Chorus] 聞き取れない単語に首をかしげて 「Yes or No」すら風任せになる 通じない会話もどこか温かくて 「I can't speak English !」  それでも笑えた [Interlude] [Bridge] かっこよく答えたいってずっと思ってた でも失敗も今はちょっと誇らしい きっと世界のどこかで誰かも同じ うまくいかなくても心は通じる [Chorus] 通じなくたって気持ちは伝わる 勇気を出すことがスタートになる 笑われたっていい自分らしくいこう 「I can't speak English !」  それが今のスタイル [Outro] 「I can't speak English !」 だけど今日も話しかけてみたい [End] ********** [Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse] Lined up at the ticket booth of a tourist spot Out of nowhere, a local started talking to me I panicked and blurted, "I can't speak English !" My family burst into laughter [Pre-Chorus] I smiled and waved my hands to cover it up But somehow, it worked, and I felt relieved [Chorus] I said "hot," but got an iced one instead But maybe I kinda like these lost-in-translation days They handed me the phone—I screamed inside, "Why me?!" "I can't speak English !" became our secret code [Interlude] [Verse] Just stuck at Grade 3 on Japan’s English test Never really had a chance to use it since Even though I want to talk so badly My mind just goes blank when the moment comes [Pre-Chorus] Every time it's over, I remember the translator app But deep down, I wanna try without any help [Chorus] I tilt my head at words I can't catch Even “Yes or No” feels like flipping a coin But there’s some warmth in those awkward talks "I can't speak English !"—but somehow, I still smiled [Interlude] [Bridge] I always dreamed of replying cool and smooth But now, even the fails feel kinda proud Someone out there must be going through the same Even if it’s clumsy, our hearts still connect [Chorus] Even when it doesn't make sense, the feeling gets through Taking the first step is where it all begins It's okay if they laugh—I'll be true to myself "I can't speak English !"—that’s just my style now [Outro] "I can't speak English !" But today, I still wanna give it a try [End]

いつも聴いていただいてありがとうございます🥰英語にまつわる失敗エピソードは多くあるのですが、自分を励ます意味も込めて、歌詞に盛り込んでみました😊話し終わった後いつも翻訳アプリの存在を思い出すんですよね😥
