Japanese Lyrics
 なんでなんだろ 気になる夜　キミへの この想い　便せんにね 書いてみるよ

もしかして 気まぐれかもしれない それなのに　枚数だけ 増えてゆくよ

好きの確率わりだす計算式 あればいいのに

キラキラひかる　願い事も グチャグチャへたる　悩み事も そーだホッチキスで　とじちゃおー はじまりだけは　軽いノリで しらないうちに　あつくなって もう針がなんだか通らない ララ☆また明日

どうしようかな 読み返すの　はずかしい あれこれと　便せんにね 書いたくせに

気持ちごと ゴミ箱行きじゃなんだか この胸が　せつないから 持ってようかな

今の気持ちをあらわす 辞書にもない言葉さがすよ

ワクワクしちゃう　計画とか グダグダすぎる　展開とか ぜんぶホッチキスで　とじちゃおー 今日のできごと　思い出して いつも心が　キュンとなって もう針がないから買わなくちゃ ララ☆また明日

キラキラひかる　願い事も グチャグチャへたる　悩み事も そーだホッチキスで　とじちゃおー はじまりだけは　軽いノリで しらないうちに　あつくなって もう針がなんだか通らない ララ☆また明日

English Translation
I wonder why it is On this worryful night I'm writing on paper These feelings to you

Could it be that I'm just being whimsical? But the sheets will only Keep on increasing

An equation to calculate the chances of love It'd be nice if I had one

My sparkling, shining wishes Have slopped in with my worries That's right, let's just staple them together My mood was only simple at the start But it got hot inside without me knowing And somehow the staples no longer go through Lala, see you tomorrow

I wonder what I should do Rereading it is embarrassing Even though all these feelings Keep being written down

Somehow if these feelings Get tossed into the trash My heart would in pain So I wonder if I should keep them

Now my feelings will be revealed Searching for words without a dictionary

This plan makes me excited Expanding it makes me too tired Let's just staple everything together Recalling the things I did today Always makes my chest tighten I ran out of staples, need to buy some more Lala, see you tomorrow

My sparkling, shining wishes Have slopped in with my worries That's right, let's just staple them together My mood was only simple at the start But it got hot inside without me knowing And somehow the staples no longer go through Lala, see you tomorrow }}
