Hojikurikaesu sunaipaa toraetathe digging sniper’s caught their prey.

Seiron de warumono bokusatsu kaikanfind pleasure in beating ‘villains’ to death with logic.
Kodomo ga kawaisou to kakikomu hahaA mother types out how she pities the children,
O hahaoya ni motsu kizzu mo mataand as for the kids who have her as a mother…
Itsumo no nichijou odayaka na matterIt’s just the usual, peaceful everyday matter,
Haritsuke ni shite waraimashou hahalet’s crucify them and laugh, haha.
Chitsujo hitsuyou yatsu o yurusu toWe need order; if we forgive them,
Kitto kizzu mo obiyakasu zothey’ll surely threaten our kids too.
Itsumo hisutorii guguru toAlways Googling their history,
Motto batsu o nozomu sadisutosadists who hunger for more punishment.
Doubutsu mo aru asobi no bouryokuEven animals engage in play-violence,

Kyou mo hibiku basei to kanseiyet today the jeers and cheers echo again.

Fubai undou moyasu ka suteroBoycott movements; burn it or throw it away.
Inochi tatsu shira nee warui no wa ano ko neTaking a life? ‘I don’t know, that kid’s the bad one.’
Mousou de tsukutta sutoorii ni buchigireLosing your mind over a story built on delusions.
