裸足のモンスター
あたしのモンスター
あなたのモンスター
溶け合うことは一生ないわ

あなたはソーファー
抱き締めたいけど
ふれた瞬間にはじめてわかった

あなたはトゥーファー!
私はだめだ
スーパースター、ジーザスジーザス!
いかれちまったマイナス18度の
この真っ青なハートを
突き刺してよ

名なしのモンスター
あたしのモンスター?
あなたのモンスター?
許しあうことは一生できない!

あなたはソーファー
涙はふかない
頭と心はどんどんはなれて
あなたはトゥーファー!
わたしはばかだ
救われたいの、ジーザスジーザス!
あたしのモンスター、あなたのモンスター

こんなにも求めあっているのに
今日もさようなら

Overall Meaning

The song "トゥーファー" by ふくろうず talks about being in a relationship with someone who is both a "sofa" and a "tooth fairy." The lyrics describe the singer's love for their partner, but also the frustration and pain that comes with realizing that their love will never fully be reciprocated. The first verse describes the two partners as "barefoot monsters" who will never merge into one, despite their deep connection. The second verse describes the singer's realization that their partner is a "tooth fairy," someone who is fleeting and will never stay for long. They also describe themselves as "hopeless" and in need of salvation.

The chorus repeats the idea of the two partners being "monsters," and suggests that they will never be able to forgive each other for their differences. The singer begs their partner to "stab their heart" and bring them salvation, but knows that it will never happen. The song ends with a bittersweet goodbye, with the two partners still in love but unable to be together.
