Japanese Lyrics
雨に打たれてる段ボール箱

箱入りじゃない　お払い箱だ

寄るなノラ猫　同情するなよ

何故俺だけ捨てられた？　グレてやる

何処にも行くあてないんです

道行くあなた　マドモアゼルよ

捨て猫拾ってみませんか

「男と女」　世の中それだけだろう

ララララ　耳元で吐息混じり　猫無で声で

ララララ　朝昼晩　甘えられて　もはや手遅れ

ケダモノになるしかないね

例えば全てを見失う

それでもいいと思える程の

恋なら後悔しないはず

「男と女」　世の中それだけだろう

ララララ　うるうるしたその瞳で　上目使いで

ララララ　朝昼晩　見つめられて　もはや手遅れ

ケダモノに首輪を

ララララ　背中に爪　引っかき傷残される程

ララララ　朝昼晩　求められて　もはや手遅れ

ケダモノに首輪を

そんな夢見て　鳴き続けたら

あの日あなたが傘を差し出した

Rōma-ji Lyrics
Ame ni utareteru dan-bōru-bako

Sore demo ii to omoeru hodo no

Koi nara kōkai shinai hazu

Note:

1 ‘da’ is what is written, but ‘sa’ is what is sung.

English Translation (Translated by Madame Tarantula)
A cardboard box beaten by the rain

(It) is not a gift box…(but is)1 a discarded box

Don’t come near (me), stray cat…(I have) no sympathy (for you)

Why (am) only I abandoned (here)?…(I) will make (myself) a bad cat

(I) do not have anywhere to go for help

You, walking down the street…mademoiselle/miss!

Would (you) care to try picking up an abandoned/stray cat?

“A man and a woman”…isn’t that everything in (this) world?

La, la, la la…(whispering) into (my) ear (with) a sigh and…with a coaxing voice

La, la, la, la…being sweetly stimulated…(in) the morning, afternoon and evening…already (it is) too late for any remedies

No other choice but turn into a beast

(I) should not regret (my) love

If (it) is so strong that (I) can feel it all right

Even in the event of losing sight of everything

“A man and a woman”…isn’t that everything in (this) world?

La, la, la, la…with those glossy, wet eyes…glancing up

La, la, la, la…being watched affectionately…(in) the morning, afternoon and evening…already (it is) too late for any remedies

A collar for the beast

La, la, la, la…so much as scratch marks are left…on (my) back (by your) nails

La, la, la, la…(I am) being desired…(in) the morning, afternoon and evening…already (it is) too late for any remedies

A collar for the beast

As (I) continued to mew…having such a dream

That day you held up an umbrella (for me)
