Pierrot

Chan chan, chan chan

The clown wears a great big smile

And silly clothes

And, even though he falls down, he laughs and jumps and performs

But he's crying on the inside.

(that's right) we all watch him and laugh,

(but) we are the same as him

What's wrong with living a pretentious life? (come on!)

[chorus]

Knock (x8) - do you hear me pounding on my chest?

Pop (x8) - all the bubbles pop

What (x8) - will you, can you understand my message?

Knock, knock, pop, and what, chan chan, chan chan

I've won, i've got riches and glory

Now's the time i've got everything i want

But i've forgotten something more important

I've met with the new and lost my self-discipline

I've lived and rested comfortably in my small-time success

But it became my greatest enemy.

After i realized that, i've begun to despise myself

Now, in step with the start of a new century,

I've rekindled the flickering flame

With my will burning anew

I've spread my wings wide

I've started a new life focused on me

That's me, and

You are still you

Hiding after shouting out forcefully

Regret, promises, deception, hesitation,

Your useless self-respect

The giraffe picture you drew is bad.*

Don't turn away

Examine your own nature

Go back to your own place

Do your own thing

And run back up.

[chorus]

Don't fool yourself

Don't get into it

Don't be defensive

Don't act like a clown

When you see a clown, all you do is point

But that could be us

You gotta understand

Out with the lies

I'm tellin' you like it is

Don't blindly go back to the ring

We gotta escape, we gotta change

Now, i'm full of hope, i'm starting my great future,

Now i understand, but you don't know

You have a choice to make, you gotta stand up,

You gotta be honest with yourself

Turn over a new leaf, be true and wise

[repeat chorus twice]

What what what say what what what what

Chan chan chan chan!!
