Hey, you don't have to rack your brains out

'Cause you see, we can't get each other with just words

For now, let's lose ourselves in this sound

'Cause I don't ever want to forget this

My body is achromatic, feeling laidback

I'm getting on the groove with just the sound of the surging rainfall

Hey, let's live together and forever

At the corner of this night

"Hey, you see, it's okay to be the nobody that we are"

Weren't you the one who enticed me with these words?

A life with nothing but logics is so vapid

Do you still think that this is a waste of time?

Stuffing in a vacuum pack the scenery we see as we're parading around,

Grooving with the sound we make as we walk and stomp the ground,

It's just like we’re the town musicians of Bremen– We have the march all to ourselves

Well then, breathe in and out quickly, and–

Let's sing like there's no tomorrow! Shall we laugh? Do you wanna join me?

See, I'm singing a love song here, ahahaha

Look, let's just take it easy, put all your worries behind! See, there's nothing in this world worth killing yourself over

What shall I do tomorrow? If you're free, let's get to know each other, alright?

Hey, you don't have to rack your brains out

The cells in your body have started dancing around,

So let's lose ourselves in this sound for now

But well, you don't have to if you can't

Going backpacking, trekking through the scenery inside our memories,

Getting into the groove, accompanied by the howling wind in spring

Let's sing together more

If you're free, let's fall in love

Well then, breath in, let your voice out, and–

Go ahead and sing like there's no tomorrow! People are going to laugh at you anyway

'Cause everything's all messed up. Don't you agree? Ahahaha

Look, let's just take it easy, let go of everything!

Playing the clown isn't exactly easy either, y'know

This chorus reads almost the same as the first, so you can just skip the next one

Well then, breathe in and out quickly–

Hey, just for today, can you please lend me your heart?

Let's sing like there's no tomorrow! Huh? What's wrong?

Are you guys making fun of me? Don't pretend you can't hear me

Look, let's just take it easy, put all your worries behind! If your life's that unbearably miserable, just get away from it all

After a few years, nobody would even remember about it, I promise

Let's sing until we run out of breath! Can you move? Do you wanna join me?

See, I'm singing a love song here, ahahaha

Look, let's just take it easy, put all your worries behind! See, there's nothing in this world worth killing yourself over

What shall I do tomorrow? If you're free, let's laugh and smile together, alright?

While we're at it, let's get to understand each other, okay?

ねぇ考えなくてもいいよ

口先じゃ分かり合えないの

この音に今は乗ろうよ

忘れないでいたいよ

身体は無彩色　レイドバック

ただうねる雨音でグルーヴ

ずっと二人で暮らそうよ

この夜の隅っこで

ねぇ不甲斐ない僕らでいいよ

って誘ったのは君じゃないの

理屈だけじゃつまらないわ

まだ時間が惜しいの？

練り歩く景色を真空パック

踏み鳴らす足音でグルーヴ

まるで僕らはブレーメン

たった二人だけのマーチ

さぁ息を吸って早く吐いて

精々歌っていようぜ　笑うかいお前もどうだい

愛の歌を歌ってんのさ　あっはっはっは

精々楽していこうぜ　死ぬほどのことはこの世に無いぜ

明日は何しようか　暇ならわかり合おうぜ

ねぇ考えなくてもいいよ

踊り始めた君の細胞

この音に今は乗ろうよ

乗れなくてもいいよ

想い出の景色でバックパック

春風の騒めきでグルーヴ

もっと二人で歌おうよ

暇なら愛をしようよ

さぁ息を吸って声に出して

精々歌っていようぜ　笑われてるのも仕方がないね

何もかも間違ってんのさ　なぁ、あっはっはっは

精々楽していこうぜ　馬鹿を装うのも楽じゃないぜ

同じような歌詞だし三番は飛ばしていいよ

さぁ息を吸って早く吐いて

ねぇ心を貸して今日くらいは

精々歌っていようぜ　違うか？

お前ら皆僕のことを笑ってんのか？なぁ

精々楽していこうぜ　死ぬほど辛いなら逃げ出そうぜ

数年経てばきっと一人も覚えてないよ

ぜえぜえ歌っていようぜ　身体は動く？お前もどうだい

愛の歌を歌ってんのさ　あっはっはっは

精々楽していこうぜ　死ぬほどのことはこの世に無いぜ

明日は何しようか　暇なら笑い合おうぜ

そのうちわかり合おうぜ

## Trivia

* The song is a homage to the Grimm Brothers' Town Musicians of Bremen.
	+ There are two variants of this fairytale: the Western-prominent and the Eastern-prominent version. The Eastern-prominent version is seemingly the inspiration for this.
* While one might find meaning in the song/title, n-buna stated that it does not have any meaning in this tweet. But it might still be a reference to the song’s lyrics or the fairy tale’s meaning.
