Morning Musume

Translation by Julie Rose

It's before dawn - 5am
Everyone's asleep

It looks like I can get away without them noticing

Muffle the sound of the motorbike; it carries a long way
I managed to sneak out with my little sister's help

Mum, Dad (Mum, Dad), I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
Maybe I'm a bad daughter
But you'd (probably) like him, (Mum)
Because he looks like Dad

Next (next) weekend (weekend)
I'm going to invite him round
Teach me (a lot) about cooking
(He's) fussy about his food

Even though he's strong, he gets lonely a lot
Even though he's stubborn, he cries easily
Woo

The sun has come up It's so nice

It's really impressive
I want to share it with my little sister

Driving along the beach, we stop at the first place we come to
And look at our map

Mum, Dad (Mum, Dad) I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
I wonder if you're up yet
But he's (probably) not (the least bit) bad
He's the person I love the most

He's nervous
About next (next) weekend (weekend) too
His hair may be red (for some reason, but)
Surely what's inside is more important than looks?

Even though he's clumsy, he's a nice person
I hope you and him don't get too close, Mum
Woo

Mum, Dad (Mum, Dad), I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
Maybe I'm a bad daughter
But you'd (probably) like him, (Mum)
Because he looks like Dad

Next (next) weekend (weekend)
I'm going to invite him round
Teach me (a lot) about cooking
(He's) fussy about his food

Even though he's strong, he gets lonely a lot
Even though he's stubborn, he cries easily
Woo
