Translation of the song 猿は木から何処へ落ちる artist Hello Sleepwalkers
猿は木から何処へ落ちる
From the tree, where does the monkey fall to?
七千万年前 猿の誕生
70 million years ago, apes appeared
進化と銘打って 僕らここにいるけど
and we are here, under the name of revolution
七千万年分 馬鹿になって
But, we've gotten more and more stupid
退化を繰り返している
and degenerated for 70million years
そんな気がしてならない
I can't help but think so
嗚呼 素晴らしき人類
Ah, How magnificent the human race is
このくだらねぇ歌を歌ってる間に
While I'm singing this trashy song,
誰かが犠牲になって
someone is sacrificed
誰かが犠牲になってる間に
But while someone is sacrificed,
幸福はふと芽吹いて
happiness is budding somewhere
このつまんねぇ日常の裏側で
Behind this boring usual life,
壮絶な非日常が
the sublime unusuality
今か今かと蝕み続ける
is undermining that, waiting for its turn
どうしろっていうんだ
What the hell should I do?
土を打った林檎
The apple which had hit the ground
水を吸って膨れ出した
absorbed water and began to swell
木から落ちた僕は
I fell from the tree,
日の目を見ないまま
and has not seen the sunlight
金で買った心
I make a fire
火を起こして暖める
and warm the heart bought with money
月に立った猿はまだ
The monkey who stood on the moon
我がもの顔で笑っている
has been laughing arrogantly
1, 2, 3, 4, we learn a lot
1, 2, 3, 4, we learn a lot
A, B, C, D, we learn a lot
A, B, C, D, we learn a lot
But can't discover the cause of stupidity
But can't discover the cause of stupidity
1, 2, 3, 4, we cried a loud
1, 2, 3, 4, we cried a loud
over and over and over again
over and over and over again
But can't discover the cause of stupidity
But can't discover the cause of stupidity
23年前 僕は誕生
23 years ago, I was born
これが進化の果てだって 笑っちゃうね全く
Am I the result of revolution? I can't help laughing.
なんせ血に濡れた両手をそっと隠して
I always hide the bloody hands
愛だ平和だと歌っている
and sing love and peace
僕は天才なんだ 自分を騙す天才なんだ
I'm a genius. I'm a genius in cheating myself
戦争闘争 銃を持って さあ
War and struggle, holding a gun, say
アイトヘイワ アイトヘイワ
LOVE AND PEACE LOVE AND PEACE
戦争闘争 右へ倣って さあ
War and struggle, following the next person, say
アイトヘイワ アイトヘイワ
LOVE AND PEACE LOVE AND PEACE
