歌舞伎町の女王

Every time I hear the cicadas, the Kujukuri Beach comes to mind
Leaving behind the wrinkled hands of my grandmother, I visited alone the pleasure district

Mom is the queen here, and I am like her spitting image
Everyone reached out their hands, even as a child I was captivated by the pleasure district

The queen disappeared, leaving me at fifteen
She probably lives with the man who came every Friday

"Even those who once flourished will inevitably wither"
I came to know the meaning, stepping into the pleasure district

Though I resent the woman who disappeared, summer is now
Proudly bearing the title of queen

Now that I've become a woman, the only thing I sell is myself
When I seek sympathy, I'll probably lose everything

When you exit the east gate of JR Shinjuku Station
That's my garden, Kabukicho, the grand playground

From tonight, in this town, the daughter that is me will be the queen

Semi no koe o kiku tabi ni me ni ukabu Kujukurihama
Shiwashiwa no sobo no te o hanare hitori de otozureta kanrakugai

Mama wa koko no joousama ikutsushi no you na atashi
Dare shimo ga te o nobete kodomo nagara ni miserareta kanrakugai

Juugo ni natta atashi o oite jou wa kieta
Maishuu kinyoubi ni kiteita otoko to kurasu no darou

"Ichido sakaeshimono demo kanarazu ya otoroe yuku"
Sono imi o shiru toki o mukae ashi o fumireta wa kanrakugai

Kiete itta onna o nikume do natsu wa ima
Jou to iu katagaki o hokorashige ni kakageru

Onna ni natta atashi ga uru no wa jibun dake de
Doujou o hoshita toki ni subete o ushinau darou

JR Shinjuku eki no higashiguchi o detara
Soko wa atashi no niwa daiyuu gijou Kabukichou

Kon'ya kara wa kono machi de musume no atashi ga jou
