Thee Michelle Gun Elephant - Pinhead Cranberry Dance (english translation)

For a song called Pinhead Cranberry Dance, I think this makes a surprising amount of sense.

ピンヘッド・クランベリー・ダンス / Pinhead Cranberry Dance

Lyrics: Chiba Yusuke
Music: Thee Michelle Gun Elephant

Wings sprouted from my back
I’m swimming in the muddy sky
At the edge of the world, 200 feet up
A rolling boogie will shake again tonight*

Wet with evening dew, I can hear the needle's crazy soda bop

Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance

There’s no helping it,
I’m being enchanted by the blurring, circus-coloured walls

Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance

In a red room, a lover’s dance
A worn-out velvet sofa laughs
My face is the colour of a ripe cranberry
A rolling boogie will shake again tonight

Wings with no feeling sprouted**
Wings sprouted from my back

Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance

Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance
Pinhead cranberry dance

Notes:
*I'm not 100% on this line

Thee Michelle Gun Elephant - Dead Star End (english translation)

Now this is a love song. 

デッド・スター・エンド / Dead Star End

Lyrics: Chiba Yusuke

Music: Thee Michelle Gun Elephant

My planet* is empty but

If that girl exists**

I can jump all the way to the edge of the universe

After I cut away the dark sky

Only I am left

Only you are left

My planet is empty but

If I’m with that girl

I can plunge right through to the other side of the magma

After I punch through the dark clouds

Only I am left

Only you are left

Only I am left

Only you are left

My planet is empty but

If that girl exists

I can jump all the way to the edge of the universe

After I cut away the dark sky

Only I am left

Only you are left

Only I am left

Only you are left

Notes:

*Could also be “star,” which would explain the title

**I took it as “If that girl is here” at first, but I think this makes more sense because he has to get through all these obstacles to find her if she is somewhere else

デッド・スター・エンド / DEDDO SUTAA ENDO

Ore no hoshi ni wa nanimo nai kedo

Ano ko ga ireba

Uchuu no hate made buttonde yukeru

Dosuguroi sora kirisaita ato

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake

Ore no hoshi ni wa nanimo nai kedo

Ano ko to ireba

MAGUMA no saki made tsukkonde yukeru

Dosuguroi kumo buchinuita* ato

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake

Ore no hoshi ni wa nanimo nai kedo

Ano ko ga ireba

Uchuu no hate made buttonde yukeru

Dosuguroi sora kirisaita ato

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake        

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake        

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake        

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake        

Ore ga iru dake           omae ga iru dake        

Notes:

*The kanji I was following says 突き抜けた tsukinuketa – pierced through.

In the song Chiba says 打抜いた buchinuita – punched, hit, stamped out, pierced

Thee Michelle Gun Elephant - I was walkin' & sleepin' (english translation)

Surprisingly straightforward for something written by Chiba.
 
I was walkin' & sleepin'

Lyrics: Chiba Yusuke

Music: Thee Michelle Gun Elephant

Don’t talk to me

Don’t call me

Don’t smile at me

Forget what I just said

Call out to me

Phone me once in a while

Show me your smile

Leave me alone

Tell me it’s normal

Tell me it’s everyday

Don’t intrude

Don’t rush me

Don’t expect things from me

Forget what I just said

Motivate me

Praise me every now and then

Teach me something

Leave me alone

Tell me not to worry

Tell me it’s okay

I was sleeping again

I was walking again

I was walking again

I was sleeping again

I was walkin’ & sleepin’ in a day

Don’t talk to me

Don’t call me

Don’t smile at me

Forget what I just said

Call out to me

Phone me once in a while

Show me your smile

Leave me alone

Tell me it’s normal

Tell me it’s everyday

I was sleeping again

I was walking again

I was walking again

I was sleeping again

I was walkin’ & sleepin’ in a day

I was walkin' & sleepin'
