中山美穂 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
DOKI DOKI させてよ
みんな友達じゃないの 他人行儀はよして
もっと近くにおいでよ 息が触れあうくらいにね
頭ん中 upside-down
からっぽに消去して
爆薬をしかけてね
WAKU WAKU させてよ
地味っぽい顔はやめて
DOKI DOKI させてよ
生きかたを派手にしなよ
みんな臆病過ぎるわ 誘いなさいな はやく
どうせ男も女も ひとりぼっちじゃ生きられない
どうせ人は同じ 淋しくて仕方無い
肩と肩をぶつけ 夜明けまで踊ろうよ
WAKU WAKU させてよ
マジっぽい恋はいやよ
DOKI DOKI させてよ
遊びなら楽しくして
WAKU WAKU (let's do it, everybody on the dance floor)
DOKI DOKI (get to it, tell the DJ that you want more)
WAKU WAKU させてよ (let's do it, everybody on the dance floor)
DOKI DOKI させてよ (get to it, oh-oh-oh)
頭ん中 upside-down
