自慢の車で 抜け出してしまおう
今すぐ行くよ はやくしないと
あやしい月が 色あせてしまう
君を乗せてゴーゴー ゴーゴー
街を抜けてゴーゴー 明日へと
イカした君は 誰も知らない
そしたら僕は 何にも似てない
不思議なコードで 恋の歌うたおう
月を超えてゴーゴー ゴーゴー
君と僕はゴー
going to a party night!
今夜二人で 今夜二人で
あやしい月を ぬりかえてしまおう
君を乗せてゴーゴー ゴーゴー
街を抜けてゴーゴー 明日へと
明日へと 明日へと
The song "月を超えろ" by 奥田民生 (Minsyō Okuda) tells the story of two people escaping the mundane and ordinary life by taking a ride in their fancy car under the mysterious and enchanting moon. The lyrics call for the characters to leave everything behind and venture into the unknown, taking a new step in life by dancing under the moonlight to a strange chord and singing a song of love. The mood of the song is adventurous and romantic, with a hint of danger from the "suspicious moon."
The first verse sets the scene where the two protagonists escape from their daily routine, driving away from the city, ultimately ending up under the influence of the moonlight. The refrain is a call to chase their desires and go on an adventure, overthrowing the barriers of everyday life, with the second verse depicting the singer's partner as "cool" or "awesome" (イカした) and unleashing a new side in the singer by singing a unique song about love.
The song offers an escape from reality, a chance to embrace the unknown without fear and become someone new in the process. It speaks to the audience about the importance of seizing every moment and following one's passion, rather than living an ordinary existence.
