English Translation
[Verse 1] Get out of the way. You're not good enough. Step on the axle to the edge of insanity.

[Pre-Chorus] Souls scorched by last-minute battles Al'right, we're going along the knife's edge, Night Kids!

[Chorus] Back on the rocks! Back on the rocks, baby! Cut through the darkness Back on the rocks! Back on the rocks, baby! The screeching of the tires screams

[Verse 2] Make it hot. Make my blood boil. High‐Tention! Black Monster! Screw it. Get through!

[Pre-Chorus 2] Those worthless fools won't even show up in my rear view mirror Al'right, the night mine! The stage for the Night Kids!

[Verse 3] I'll try who you are I'm gonna smash you to pieces

[Pre-Chorus 3] Souls burn in last-minute battles. Al'right, we're going along the knife's edge, Night Kids!

Trivia

 * The cover was recorded at the Prime Sound Studio in Minato City, Tokyo.
 * Because of the Japanese pronunciation of the letter "R" as "L", the chorus sounds like "Back on the Locks".
