Japanese[]

あのひとのママに会うために
今、ひとり列車に乗ったの
たそがれせまる街並や車の流れ
横目で追い越して

あのひとはもう気づくころよ
バスルームにルージュの伝言
浮気な恋をはやくあきらめないかぎり
家には帰らない

不安な気持ちを残したまま
街はディンドン遠ざかってゆくわ
明日の朝ママから電話で
しかってもらうわマイダーリン!

Romanji[]

Ano hito no Mama ni au tame ni
Ima hitori Ressha ni notta no
Tasogare semaru machinami ya Kuruma no nagare
Yokome de oi koshite

Ano hito wa Mou kizuku koro yo
Basu ruumu ni Ruuju no dengon
Uwakina koi o hayaku akiramenai kagiri
Uchi ni wa kaeranai

Fuanna kimochi o nokoshita mama
Machi wa 'ding-dong' toozakatte yuku wa
Asu no asa mama kara denwa de
Shikatte morau wa, my darling!

Translation[]

In order to meet my boyfriend's Mama,
Now alone, I rode the train,
As twilight draws in across the street, to this flow of cars,
I give a sideways glance as I overtake.

He should have noticed about now,
The message in rouge in the bathroom,
If you don't up your fickle loving soon,
Then I wont come home.

Because my feelings of anxiety remain,
I'll leave this town's ding-dong and go far away,
Tomorrow morning, you'll get a phone call from your mother
And you'll receive a scolding my darling!
