[Intro] (Acoustic guitar fast strumming) (Dissonant walking bassline) [Verse 1] 消毒液の 匂いが噎せ返る 死神たちが たむろする裏口 赤いパイプの 丸椅子が並び 縋る思いの 行列が出来る [Verse 2] 何処ぞの 胡散臭い伝道師 ヨレた背広に 脂ぎった声 酷い訛りで 天国を騙る モルヒネよりも 効くのだと [Pre-Chorus] カルテの数字は 嘘をつかない されど 絶望は 幻を欲する 医学は敗れて 路上に晒され [Sudden Pause] [Spoken / Sigh] 「……笑っちまうね」 さあ、開演のベルだ！ [Chorus] [Frantic Vocal] 拝めよ 祈れよ 「アーメン！」(アーメン！) プラシーボ効果の 狂騒曲 余命宣告 掻き消すための 滑稽なほどの カルト・パレード 神様は 今日も 非番らしい [Interlude] (Retro electric guitar solo) (Cabaret accordion) [Verse 3] [Cynical Vocal] 点滴の針 抜けぬ腕を上げ 藁にも縋る 盲目の群れよ どうせ散るなら 踊らにゃ損と サイレンの音も 掻き消す讃美歌 [Chorus 2] [Overdrive Vocal] もっと 泣けよ 叫べよ 「アーメン！」(アーメン！) 特効薬なき 狂騒曲 灰になるまで 夢を見させてよ 悲惨を極めた シュールな喜劇 [Sudden Pause] [Sigh / Spoken] 「……くだらねえな」 [Resume] あたしは 煙草の 煙を吐いた [Outro] [Acoustic guitar only] (……アーメン……) [End abruptly] ######################### # English Version # ######################### [Intro] (Acoustic guitar fast strumming) (Dissonant walking bassline) [Verse 1] The stench of disinfectant fills my lungs Grim reapers gather by the backdoor line Red pipe stools stand in crooked rows tonight A parade of desperate souls forms in the dark [Verse 2] Some shady preacher from God-knows-where Wrinkled suit and a grease-soaked voice Selling heaven in a broken accent “Works better than morphine,” he swears [Pre-Chorus] The numbers on the charts don’t lie at all But despair still hungers for illusions Medicine collapsed out in the street tonight (Sudden Pause) (Spoken / Sigh) “…What a damn joke.” Now the curtain finally rises! [Chorus] (Frantic Vocal) Bow your heads! Pray tonight! “AMEN!” (AMEN!) A placebo-effect rhapsody Drowning out the sentence of death A grotesque and laughing cult parade Guess God clocked out again today [Interlude] (Retro electric guitar solo) (Cabaret accordion) [Verse 3] (Cynical Vocal) Raise the arm with the IV still inside Blind believers clutching straws to live “If we’re dying anyway, then dance instead” Hymns loud enough to bury the sirens [Chorus 2] (Overdrive Vocal) Cry louder! Scream louder! “AMEN!” (AMEN!) No cure exists for this rhapsody Let us dream until we turn to ash A surreal catastrophe in comedy form (Sudden Pause) (Sigh / Spoken) “…This is so pathetic.” (Resume) I exhaled another cloud of smoke [Outro] (Acoustic guitar only) (…Amen…) [End abruptly]
