kanji & kana

やめて
そんな目で見つめないで
だって
あなたには興味ないし…

ごめん
この場からどこか消えて
あのね
男なんてノーサンキュー

もっともっともっと
踊りたいの

今パラパラ
なぜパラパラ
記憶にないのに…
今パラパラ
まだパラパラ
遺伝子レベルで…
勝手に動くの
ユーロなビートで…
時間を忘れる
夜更けのイマパラ

私
悪いけど一人がいい
両手
あの振り付け懐かしい

ずっとずっとずっと
夢見心地

今からから
さあパラパラ
ママたち世代の
今からから
もうパラパラ
思い出ダンスを…
生まれてないのに
覚えているのよ
みんなで一緒に
復活イマパラ

パラパラすれば
辛いことだって
忘れられるよ
OH!

english translation

Please stop it
Don’t look at me with those eyes
I just
Don’t have any interest in you…

Sorry
I’ll be leaving to go somwhere else
‘Cause you see
Guys are a big “no thank you”

More and more and more
I just wanna dance

Now I’ll parapara
Somehow parapara
Though I don’t know how I know it…
Now I’ll parapara
I’ll still parapara
It’s a genetic-level urge…
Dancing with abandon
To the Euro beat…
Forgetting what time it is
‘Til early hours, nowpara

I’m sorry
I just want to be alone by myself
Both hands
Following the old nostalgic dance moves

Forever, forever, forever
Caught up in a daydream

Now let’s go, let’s go
And parapara
To songs from our mothers’ era
Now let’s go, let’s go
And parapara
A dance of memories…
I wasn’t even born then
And yet I still remember
Let’s all dance together
And revive it, nowpara

When you do parapara
All the unhappy things
Disappear from your mind
OH!
