Japanese

アスファルトの霧溶ける月の夜
コンクリートの壁耳おしつけ
電が星降らせる音を
二人だけでそっと聞くのもいい

恋人達はシャドウボクシング
今だけしかない愛し方する
镇痛剤をワインで割って
街角で抱きあうのもいい

Last Dance Last Dance
はじめよう抱きしめてやる
Last Chain Last Chain*
つかみ出せ今宵かぎりのチャンス

体が勝手に動き出す
言葉が勝手にあふれ出す
時計が俺を追い出した
道を踏みはずせ

Last Dance Last Dance
はじめよう抱きしめてやる
Last Chain Last Chain
つかみ出せ今宵かぎりの

Last Chain, Last Chain for you

Asufaruto no kiri tokeru tsuki no yoru

Ima dake shikanai aishi kata suru

Machi kado de dakiau no mo ii

Last Dance Last Dance

Last Chain, Last Chain for you

English

By: Yoshiyuki

Moonlit night where the asphalt melts into the fog
Ear pressed against the concrete wall
The sound lightning making stars fall
is something we can secretly listen to, just the two of us

Lovers are shadow boxing
Loving in a way that can only exist now
Let’s dilute painkillers with wine
Or just hug each other on the street corner

Last Dance Last Dance
Let’s begin While embracing
Last Chain Last Chain
Grab and go Tonight’s the only chance

Body moving on its own
Words flowing out on their own
The clock drove me out
Stray away from the path

Last Dance Last Dance
Let’s begin While embracing
Last Chain Last Chain
Grab and go Tonight’s the only chance

Last Chain, Last Chain for you

Notes:

¹ The Der Zibet (1988) booklet says “Last Chane”, the Historic Flowers one says “Last Chain”, which is what I went for lol.

BUCK-TICK | [30 May 2021] OKMusic: BUCK-TICK Announces A One-Night-Only Live Stream With a Slightly Different Feel

Posted on May 30, 2021 by Yoshiyuki

BUCK-TICK Announces A One-Night-Only Live Stream

OKMusic
30 May 2021

BUCK-TICK has announced a special live session entitled Misemono-goya ga Kurete Kara 〜SHOW AFTER DARK〜 which will be streamed in July. This is the second time that they will be holding a while new live show for streaming. The first, ABRACADABRA LIVE ON THE NET was held on 21 September last year to commemorate the release day of their album ABRACADABRA and featured the songs on that album played in accordance with the work’s tracklist. However, this time, it is a special one-night-only show with no accompanying release. Furthermore, this will also be BUCK-TICK’s first show in 2021.

The show will consist of two parts made up of a special setlist selected for this occasion from the many songs they have released over their 36-year career. Some of the numbers have been boldly rearranged to leave a completely different impression from their original versions.

Peeking into the tent of curiosities as the night deepens, you’ll find an unfamiliar visage on the BUCK-TICK you thought you knew well. Is it dream or reality, or perhaps, are they real or fake──. This will probably turn out to be a curious experience that blurs the lines between dreams and reality on this one summer night.

A new artist photo has been released along with the live announcement. Looking at the picture, we can expect a conceptual show to unfold.

More details, including the date, will be announced later.

Happy Star　Happy Star
夜の空を明るく照らし

世界中が待ちわびていた
ミルキーウェイにパレードがくり出したパジャマのままで飛び出せよ
ダンスシューズにはきかえてさ
おまえを迎えに行くまで待ってるんだ

Happy Star　Happy Star
全ての悲しみ照らし出せ
Happy Star　Happy Star
涙も光で輝くだろう
楽しい事だけ美しい物だけ
うそっぱちでも信じ続けて
覚えたてのステップで星空舞うのさ
宇宙の果てまで淋しさ連れて行こう

Happy Star　Happy Star
トゥインクル　トゥインクル　希望の星

夜の街にふりそそいで
きゆうくつな服は脱げばいい
退屈な時計はずせばいい
ぬぐいされない悲しみはない
愛を持てない憎しみもない

Нарру Star　Нарру Star
Shining brightly in the night sky
Нарру Star　Нарру Star
The whole world has been waiting for you
The milky way parade has begun
Let’s fly out while still in our pajamas
Change into your dancing shoes
I’m waiting to come and pick you up

Нарру Star　Нарру Star
Bring all the sadness into the light
Нарру Star　Нарру Star
Even tears shine in the light, don’t they
Only happy events, only beautiful things
Keep on believing even in utter falsehoods
Dance in the star-filled sky with the steps you just learnt
Let’s bring loneliness to the end of the cosmos

Нарру Star　Нарру Star
Twinkle twinkle star of hope
Нарру Star　Нарру Star
Raining down on the nightlife district
Just strip away your stuffy clothes
Just remove your boring watch
There is no sadness that can’t be swept away
I don’t have love, neither do I have hate

何もかもが下らない
ため息だらけのWEEKEND
行き場所すらもありゃしない
今夜のおまえは特別さ
いつもと違うはしゃいだ笑顔で
時間を脱ぎすてムーンドライブ
ネオンの宝石グラスに注ぎ
裸足になって踊ろう
昼間の事などどうでもいいさ
夜の鼓動を聞きわけろ

Lady outlaw
朝のくること忘れておくれ
Lady outlaw
本当におまえはイカしてる
Lady outlaw
明日の分まで抱いておくれ
一瞬だけでいい

不安な顔などしなくていい
シャワーのかわりにシャンパンあびて
一夜限りのダーティーパーティー
Stone face を見せてくれ
あかりを消してマッチをすれば
体と心が flash back
刹那の夢を夜空に溶かし
抱きあったまま踊ろう
俺の意識をひったくれ
それができるのはおまえだけ

朝のくること忘れておくれ

Everything is stupid
A weekend full of sighs
There’s nowhere to even go
You’re special tonight
with an excited smile unlike the usual
Whisk time away on a drive by moonlight
Let’s empty out onto neon-coloured glass gems
and dance barefoot
Who cares about what happens in the day
Let’s listen and analyse the beating of the night

Lady outlaw
Make me forget that morning comes
Lady outlaw
You’re truly out of this world
Lady outlaw
Hold me long enough to last through tomorrow
Just for a moment

You don’t have to look so anxious
Shower in champagne instead of water
A one-night only dirty party
Show me your stone face
If we turn off the lights and fire up a match
Both the body and soul gets a flash back
Let’s melt fleeting dreams into the night sky
and dance in each others’ arms
Snatch my consciousness from me
You’re the only one who can

Lady outlaw
Make me forget that morning comes
Lady outlaw
You’re truly out of this world
Lady outlaw
Hold me long enough to last through tomorrow
Just for a moment

あれから何年もたってるのに
まだ熱にうかされたまま
男も女も　知らない頃に
たくさんの贈り物をもらったから
　　出会った時に　投げ捨てた時計は
　　あの時間のまま　止まってる
　　”Time for Action!!”

うしろ指さされる事に
びくびくしていた頃もあった
誤解される事は　もう恐がらない
目をあけたまま　夢を見る事も出来る
　　ずっと宇宙のみなし児なんだと
　　僕は信じたままでいたんだ
　　“Time for Action!!”

僕はあなたの子供さ　Rock’n Roll Doctor
時を越えて歌おう　Rock’n Roll Doctor

あなたは天国へ行ったけれど
革命の子はうかれたまま
今日も酒をくらって　僕はさわいでる
死にかけた Rock Music　笑いとばして
　　紫のミニクーパー追いかけて
　　宇宙まで僕も飛んで行きたい
　　“Time for Action!!”

　”Come on Guitar Kids, yeah!”

僕はあなたの子供さ　Rock’n Roll Doctor
誰も僕をだませない　Rock’n Roll Doctor
僕はあなたの子供さ　Rock’n Roll Doctor
時を越えて歌おう　Rock’n Roll Doctor

Time for Action!

Although it’s been years since then
I’m still stuck in a fever
Because when I knew neither man or woman¹
I was given lots of gifts
　　The clock I threw away when we first met
　　has remained frozen in that moment
　　“Time for Action!!”

There was also a time when I was scared
about people talking behind my back
I’m no longer afraid of being misunderstood
I can dream with my eyes open
　　I’ve always believed that
　　I’m an orphan of the universe
　　“Time for Action!!”

Because I’m your child Rock’n Roll Doctor
Let’s sing across time Rock’n Roll Doctor

You’ve gone to heaven but
the child of revolution remains in high spirits
Today I’ll drink too, making merry
Rock Music almost died　Laugh it off
　　Chasing purple Mini Coopers
　　I want to fly all the way into space too
　　“Time for Action!!”

　”Come on Guitar Kids, yeah!”

Because I’m your child Rock’n Roll Doctor
No one can fool me Rock’n Roll Doctor
Because I’m your child Rock’n Roll Doctor
Let’s sing across time Rock’n Roll Doctor

　Time for Action!
　Stroll on!
　Hey Hey Hey…
　Get on!

Notes:

¹ Rather than a literal interpretation of this line (i.e. literally not knowing a particular man or a particular woman), I personally think that he meant to refer to a time in his childhood when he “had no concept of gender norms”.

Yellow, red and blue lights which don’t know where they’re going
Ambiguous charity-religion billboard
Caught in a downpour with boots sopping wet
Searching for you, I circle round and around in the metro

You’re the only one who can’t abandon me
Help me Darling
What a bad joke

Turning on the TV to ads, drama, the news
I can’t even tie up shoelaces properly
My automatic nervous system is going bust
Punching in your number endlessly

Help me Darling
What a funny story

Funny Funny Panic Funny Funny Panic

Strip away the pajamas　We can dance the night away
Let me hear the treble　There’s no need for sanity
Toss away the glasses　As if it’s a bad dream
Lemon squeezy　Say hi to mama!

Notes:

¹ Normally read as shingou (traffic lights) but sung as ieroo・reddo ando buruu (Yellow, red and blue) here., i.e. describing the colour of the lights.

² Normally read as denwa bangou (telephone number) but sung as nanbaa (number) here.
