イミテーション (Imitation)

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
かごめかごめ答え合わせ 	kagome kagome kotae awase 	Kagome kagome,Kagome Kagome is a children’s song. The fist line of the song, “Kagome kagome,” seems to indicate that “Kagome” (a kind of lattice) is being addressed, so in a way it’s similar to “Mirror, mirror.” I’m checking my answers.
ほらほら見て誰だ仲間外れ 	hora hora mite dare da nakama hazure 	Come on, come on, look–who is it, that’s being left out of the group?
フラフラ演じるよ道化愛想振りまいて 	furafura enjiru yo douke aiso furimaite 	I perform it all unsteadily, this buffoonery. I lavish people with this friendliness.
