Japanese Lyrics
マリオネット　両手首

ハサミでその糸を切った夜

先程の絹糸で

蜘蛛の巣を編むその時だけは

女の子で居られるんですもの

Dance with Skelton

Listen Silence

See the Shadow···

蜘蛛の巣に誰かいる

蝶はもがいてきらきら光る

罪を憎んで蜘蛛憎まずと言うだろう

むしろ綺麗な羽根を憎むべきだと思うけど

月も夜空の星も見て見ぬフリをする

あなた好みの毒よお気に召すはず　めしあがれ

Dance with Skelton

Listen Silence

See the Shadow···

ふりまいた鱗粉で

この給の仕上げをしてくれている

English Translation (Translated by Madame Tarantula)
The marionette…the night when (I) cut the strings

(From) both (of its) hands and neck with scissors

Because (I) can stay as a girl

Only when (I) weave a spiderweb

With the mentioned silk strings

Someone is in the spiderweb

A butterfly glistens glitteringly as (it) struggles

As (people) say, “Hate the sin, but not the spider/(Condemn the offense, but not the offender)/(Detest the sin, but weep for the sinner)”

But (I) feel (it) should rather say, “Hate/Condemn (those) beautiful wings”

The moon and the stars in the night sky can see (it), but pretend not to see (it)

(This) poison (is) your type, (it) should be agreeable to (you)…please have (some)

((You) are giving the finishing touches to this supply

For (me) with the scattered powdery scales (of those wings))3
