Orange slide, the sky that it reflects
Sponge's pride, being dangled

Spider
The apprehension that was caught alive
It's okay even if I don't hide it
I want to have colored dreams

Ride on shooting star
With the voice of my heart, like a shotgun
I kept on singing

Grunge hamster, be grown up
Lobster of revenge, bring it along

Sniper
I'll say, "What can you see
In that fringed world?"
I want to touch it before I aim for it

Ride on shooting star
Searching for you, and in withdrawal syndrome
I told a lie

Ride on shooting star
With the voice of my heart, like a shotgun
I kept on singing

    My Interpretation:Stream of consciousness maybe? Probably thought up the beat first and then assigned the random lyrics in a very ad-libbed way.......

    General Comment:It's refreshing to hear a japanese song that spontaneously has english non-sensical lyrics only to find that the rest of the song is that way too!

    A reviewer of FLCL said that it's like Marry Poppins on acid. I think this song reflects a similar tone where the exact meaning is lost but the feeling and the abstract shapes are there.

    General Comment:The caraziness of this song is why I LOVE it as the ending of Furi Kuri! Am I the only one that's noticed that most J rock and J pop lyrics seem a little sadder when translated? It's kinda a sad song, but I like the energy!

    General Comment:@ Daft Caitie,
    I think withdrawal does not mean from drugs (lol, well MAYBE, I mean the song is a bit up there. Just a bit.)

    Maybe it's withdrawal from 'her',
    he probably did something bad to mess up the relationship or something.

    Love the song though

    General Comment:Excuse me You got some ......most of the lyrics wrong...^^;;...i grew up in japan and can speak the language fluently..so ill give you the actual english translation...

    A slide of orange reflects the sunlight like a sponges pride being dangeled

    Spider
    Do no hide for live capture is like a colored dream

    Ride on shooting star
    I continued singing like a shotgun
    with all my heart

    A grunge hamster becomes more mature and is accompinied by a lobster of revenge

    Sniper
    I say "What do you see in a fringed world?"
    I want to touch it before you aim

    Ride on shooting star
    im searching for you and I am haveing withdrawal symptoms
    I lied to you

    Ride on shooting star
    Icountinued singing like a shotgun with all my heart
