Otona ni wa naritakunai naritakunai naritakunaindaI don’t want to grow up, don’t want to, don’t want to grow up.
Ima dake wa kakkotsukete kakkotsukete kakkotsuketendaJust for now, I’m trying to look cool, trying to look cool, trying to look cool.

Ima dake wa kakkotsukete kakkotsukete kakkotsuketendaJust for now, I’m trying to look cool, trying to look cool, trying to look cool.
Houki de gitaa houkago ni kyoushitsu de kakinarashitetaI used to strum a broom like a guitar in the classroom after school.
Hitori de kitaku shiteru toko darenimo misetakunakattaI didn’t want anyone to see me heading home all by myself.
Shokuinshitsu yobidashi daitai ore ka tada chan dattaThey usually called me or Tada-chan to the staff room.
Basuke bu no shiai oungooru de taibuI scored an own goal in a basketball game and quit the team,
Tatta ni shuukanlasting only two weeks.
Kakkotsuke de ima da okorareppanashi no jinseiI’m still trying to look cool while living a life of constant scoldings.
Zettai iwanee roku moji gomennasai yorimo iiwakeI’ll never say those six characters ‘I’m sorry’; I’d rather make an excuse.
Yume ippai randoseru tte iitai kedoI want to say my ‘randoseru’ ‘stiff leather backpack’ is full of dreams,
Jissai wa chigaubut the reality is different.
Kinou made no teishutsu no hazu no purinto gaThe handout I was supposed to turn in yesterday,
Oku kara detekite dai pinchiemerges from the depths of my bag, and I’m in big trouble.
Otona ni wa naritakunai naritakunai naritakunaindaI don’t want to grow up, don’t want to, don’t want to grow up.
Kyou ga rasuto chansuToday’s my last chance.
Hyakkai me no kokuhaku no yukue kareshi dekitaThe result of my hundredth confession? She’s got a boyfriend.
E nani icchatten da yoHey, what are you even saying?
Ore wa patto furareta omae wa heartbreakerYou suddenly rejected me, and you’re just a heartbreaker.
Ima dake wa kakkotsukete kakkotsukete kakkotsuketendaJust for now, I’m trying to look cool, trying to look cool, trying to look cool.
Otona ni wa naritakunai naritakunai naritakunaindaI don’t want to grow up, don’t want to, don’t want to grow up.
Ima dake wa kakkotsukete kakkotsukete kakkotsuketendaJust for now, I’m trying to look cool, trying to look cool, trying to look cool.
