==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
切り頭のお嬢さん 	zangiri atama no ojousan 	A girl with cropped hair
急ぎ足でどこへ行く 	isogiashi de doko e iku 	hurries off somewhere
さらば末世の手土産は 	saraba matsuse no temiyage wa 	a gift from those last days,
赤い花柄のかんざしで 	akai hanagara no kanzashi de 	an ornate, flower-patterned hairpin
 	 	
西洋かぶれのお兄さん 	seiyou kabure no oniisan 	A western-affecting young man
ハットでめかしどこへ行く 	hatto de mekashi doko e iku 	dons a hat and goes off somewhere
されど末世の置き土産、 	saredo matsuse no okimiyage, 	but he still dons a parting gift from those last days,
和装姿には似合わず 	wasou sugata ni wa niawazu 	a kimono which doesn't suit him
 	 	
 	kimyou kiteretsu 	the truly strange beginning
文明開化 	bunmei kaika 	of westernization
 	hyakkaseihou 	those Flowers of Japanism
ジャパニズム 	japanizumu 	begin to blossom
だぁ？ 	ikokujousho daa? 	is it an atmosphere of exoticism?
とりあえずまぁ・・ 	toriaezu maa.. 	Well anyhow...
やっぱは 	yappa roman wa 	Most surely what's romantic
近代文明？ 	kindai bunmei? 	is this modern culture
 	 	
時代遅れは誰ですか？ 	jidai okure wa dare desu ka? 	So who exactly is behind the times?
さぁだなんだはさておき 	saa fuzei da nanda wa sateoki 	Putting aside these issues of taste
せよと言うほどじゃありませんが 	katsumokuse yo to iu hodo ja arimasen ga	while not required to observe too closely
寄ってらっしゃい　見てらっしゃい 	yotte rasshai mite rasshai 	Come over and look this way
さぁ　幕開けの時 	saa makuake no toki 	Now it's time for the beginning of the act
 	 	
文明開化の音がする 	bunmei kaika no oto ga suru 	The sound of westernization can be heard
革命の音で　ラッタッタ 	kakumei no ne de rattatta 	The sound of a revolution, ra-ta-ta
浮世離れも　なんとやら 	ukiyobanare mo nanto yara 	A sense of otherworldliness, somehow or whatnot
合いの手打てや　ラッタッタ 	ai no te ute ya rattatta 	Fire off this musical interlude ra-ta-ta!

ハイカラ可憐なお嬢さん、 	haikara karen na ojousan, 	a stylish, young woman, tonight she goes off somewhere
今宵、馬車はどこへ行く 	koyoi, basha wa doko e iku 	in a horse-drawn carriage

さぁ大衆文化も一刀両断 	saa taishuu bunka mo ittou ryoudan 	Come, let's even slice the people's culture in two
