OH!! POPSTAR
チェッカーズ Lyrics

Oh 悲劇のポップスターさ
The singer is reminiscing about his days as a tragic pop star.

青春が渡れない河あるねと
He remembers feeling like he couldn't cross a river of youth.

ラジオで歌ってる
He hears his own songs playing on the radio.

粉雪に煙る摩天楼の明かりが水面でにじむ
In a snowstorm, the light of tall buildings reflects on the water.

夢の灯点すキャンドルのようさ
That view looks like a candle lighting a dream.

屋根裏の部屋で暮らしてたね
He used to live in an attic room.

錆びつく窓からのぞく
He would look out from a rusty window.

向うの岸が光って見えたよ
He could see the other shore shining in the distance.

Close my eyes
He closes his eyes.

ギター弾ける仕事見つけたと
He found a job playing the guitar.

Hold you tight
He holds someone tightly.

空のグラス乾杯したね
They raised an empty glass in a toast.

コインで買えない夢など無いって信じてたよ
He used to believe that there were no dreams that couldn't be bought with money.

この橋を渡れば幸福に babyできると思ってた
He used to think that crossing this bridge would bring him happiness.

街角の壁に笑う俺のポスター見かけるたびに
Whenever he sees a poster of himself laughing on a wall corner…

ブーツの先で破って泣いたよ
…he kicks the poster and cries.

星に手が届きそうな部屋で
He used to live in a room that felt like he could reach the stars.

いつしか二人の愛も粉雪みたく河面に溶けたね
His love with someone else melted away like snow on the river surface.

Let me back幸福って難しすぎるね
He wishes to have happiness again, but thinks that it's too difficult.

Tell me why誰のために歌えばいいの?
He questions who he should sing for.

ロックン・ロールのピアノが連弾(さけ)ぶよ切ないねと...
The rock n' roll piano keys play together and it sounds bittersweet…

青春が渡れない河あるねと
He remembers feeling like he couldn't cross a river of youth.

ラジオで歌ってる
His music is still being played on the radio.

悲しみのベイ・ブリッジさこの橋の向こうに置いて来るのさ
He leaves behind his sadness on the other side of Bay Bridge.

誰でも青春を...
Everyone has their own youth story.

悲劇のポップスター
He sees himself as a tragic pop star.

Oh 悲劇のポップスターさ
The singer is reminiscing about his days as a tragic pop star.
