ふしだらな week end さみしがりやの恋
熱いシャワーの音で "クライド" 聞こえない
もっと抱きしめてよ "ボニー"
キュラソー飲み干す 肩越しにゆれてる
摩天楼のふちどり 傷だらけの天使
消えてしまいそうで "クライド" 震えてるきつく抱きしめてよ "ボニー"
Stop the time for fall in love
抱き合ったままで眠るだけ
Stop the time for fall in love
コンクリートのかごの中 ah
(Cry, oh yeah, Bonnie, oh yeah)
(Cry, oh yeah, Bonnie)
Stop the time for fall in love
抱き合ったままで眠るだけ
Stop the time for fall in love
コンクリートのかごの中
Stop the time for fall in love
抱き合ったままで眠るのさ
Stop the time for fall in love
コンクリートのかごの中
The song "Rouge of Gray" by Boøwy is a melancholic and introspective song that talks about two lovers who are desperately yearning for each other's affection. The lyrics focus on the emotional and physical state of the two protagonists, who are identified as "Bonnie" and "Clyde". They are both portrayed as outcasts, living in a world indifferent to their love, wounded by their past experiences and seeking solace in each other's embrace.
The song's opening lines describe Bonnie wearing a bathrobe, reaching for something that seems out of grasp. This is a metaphor for her longing for Clyde's love, as she tries to connect with him physically and emotionally. The second line talks about their "licentious" weekend, which indicates their interdependence and the need for each other's proximity to find happiness. As Clyde is not present, Bonnie listens to Clyde's voice, but the noise of the shower muffles it. She asks Clyde to hold her tighter, implying that she needs his security.
The second verse continues with the imagery of Bonnie and Clyde drinking Curacao, carelessly ignoring the world around them. The metaphor of the "damaged angel" is used to describe their emotional state, and the image of the skyscraper ornamented with scars is a representation of their wounded souls. Clyde is trembling, and Bonnie asks him to hold her more tightly, suggesting that they need to cling to each other to escape the harshness of reality.

絶対再結成なんかしねぇ!って氷室さんがおっしゃるのがよく分かる。
このバンドは氷室さんが心地よく歌えるバンドです。
だからこそこのかっこよさが表現出来るんだ。
だからこそ聴いているみんなが惚れるんだ。
