[Intro]
Hey yo, eighty-six, battle queen, boy you make, gasoline,
Drive the Space Boy Rock!
[Verse 1]
Every night you light me with your gasoline
(It's from the 98' to the 23')
Everytime I feel delight when you recall my name
(Keep calling you loud)
[Pre-Chorus]
Be my shining star tonight
I'm not alone with all your love
Fly across the sky, you will be mine
Like a real dream with you (Hey babe)
[Chorus]
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
Woh oh oh oh!
(Oh yes, I'm ready yeah)
Gonna catch you I'm your Space Boy!
(To the beat, to the beat, I gon(na) dive into the dance floor)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
Woh oh oh oh!
(Yes, I'm ready baby)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
(Gonna make you rock it, the ホンモノ (honmono, real) Space Boy Rock)
[Verse 2]
Every night you drive me crazy like you know
(Black and white, you go fast and tight)
Everyday I scream so loud, you'll always be my queen
(The body, perfect queen)
[Pre-Chorus]
Be my shining star tonight
I'm not alone with all your love
Fly across the sky, you will be mine
Like a real dream with you (You're my babe)
[Chorus]
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
Woh oh oh oh!
(Oh yes, I'm ready yeah)
Gonna catch you I'm your Space Boy!
(To the beat, to the beat, I gon(na) dive into the dance floor)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
Woh oh oh oh!
(Yes, I'm ready baby)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy! (Now)
Take a chance with me baby!
Space Boy Rock 鳴りひびく (nari hibiku, resounding) Space Boy Rock
生まれて四半世紀 ずっとひかってる閃光弾 (umarete shihanseiki zutto hikatteru senkōdan, A quarter-century since birth, a gleaming flash has been shining continuously)
色褪せるどころか 増えていく相乗効果 (iroaserudokoroka fueteiku sōjō kōka, Instead of fading, it's an escalating synergistic effect)
益々ギラギラ 油ギッシュでサーセン (masumasu giragira abura gisshu de sāsen, Shining even more, oily and aggressive)
永遠の生命体 Titanium 声帯 席ゆずる気なんかない (eien no seimeitai Titanium seitai seki yuzuru ki nanka nai, Eternal life form, Titanium vocal cords, I won't give up my seat)
ライラライいらっしゃい Anybody チャレンジ (raira rai irasshai Anybody charenji, La la la, welcome, anybody, challenge)
いつも Welcome (itsumo Welcome, Always welcome)
The time is now, here come the kings, the Space Boy Rock
[Bridge]
Eight-Six body, Eighty-Six, 制しまくるハチロク 世界中の hot race (seishimakuru hachi roku sekaijū no hot race Hachiroku dominates hot races around the world)
倍加する Information 秒速 ムーアの法則 (baika suru Information byōsoku mūa no hōsoku, Doubling information speed, Moore's Law)
でもいまだに Choice の仕方がわからない (demo imadani Choice no shikata ga wakaranai, But I still don't understand how to make choices)
So you can be my shining star tonight
(You'll be my shining star, the fastest car, ready to fly)
Fly across the sky, you will be mine
Like a real dream with you
(Hey DJ, break it break it down)
[Chorus]
Gonna get you like a space boy
(And break it down again)
Gonna catch you I'm your space boy
(To the beat, to the beat, we gon(na) dive into the dance floor)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
Woh oh oh oh!
(Yes, now we're ready)
Gonna get you like a Space Boy!
(Gonna make you rock it, the ホンモノ (honmono, real) Space Boy Rock)
[Outro]
Never too late, get into the Space Boy, and we show you how
Never too late, get into the Space Boy, and we show you how
Never too late, get into the Space Boy, and we show you how
Never too late, get into the Space Boy, and we show you how
