Japanese

どきどき　ハラハラ　マロンでチクチクしちゃうわ
ピキピキ　ジョキジョキ　ハサミでザクザクキレるわ

まるい地球の奥底に　マグマが燃えてる
きけんだわ　きけんだわ　きけん　きけん　きけん　きけん

エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　4月1日はバカ
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　4月1日はバカ
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　8月いっぱいサマー
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　8月いっぱいサマー



うきうき　ムキムキ　お庭で筋肉育てる
おッスおッス　えびぞり　屋根からお魚生えてる

マイナスイオンの悪だくみ　プラスがやられる
きけんだわ　きけんだわ　きけん　きけん　きけん　きけん

エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　4月1日はバカ
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　4月1日はバカ
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　8月いっぱいサマー
エイプリルフール　エイプリルフール　8月いっぱいサマー

Dokidoki harahara maron de chiku chiku shichau wa

April fool april fool shigetsu ippi wa baka
April fool april fool shigetsu ippi wa baka
April fool april fool hachigetsu ippai sama-
April fool april fool hachigetsu ippai sama-

Uki uki muki muki oniwa de kin'niku sodateru
Ossu ossu ebizori yane kara osakana haeteru

Mainasu ion no waru dakumi purasu ga yarareru
Kiken da wa kiken da wa kiken kiken kiken kiken

April fool april fool shigetsu ippi wa baka
April fool april fool shigetsu ippi wa baka
April fool april fool hachigetsu ippai sama-
April fool april fool hachigetsu ippai sama- 

Translation

My heart's beating so fast, I'm nervous; I stuck myself on a chestnut
I'm so mad! Snip-snip, I'll cut it right off with scissors

Magma burns deep down under the round round earth
It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, danger danger danger danger!

April fool, april fool, on the first day of April you're a fool
April fool, april fool, on the first day of April you're a fool
April fool, april fool, a summer full of August
April fool, april fool, a summer full of August

Cheerfulness is good for growing meat in the garden
Hey! Yeah! Ebizori! Fish pop up from the rooftop!

The sinister plots of the minus ion will do in the plus
It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, danger danger danger danger!

April fool, april fool, on the first day of April you're a fool
April fool, april fool, on the first day of April you're a fool
April fool, april fool, a summer full of August
April fool, april fool, a summer full of August

Music Production Info

Today's Japan is full of stories of adults who tell lies every day, but get bent out of shape if a youngster lies even on this special day. I hope I can live to see a Japan where even an 18 year old, no, even a 12 year old wouldn't get caught if they lied every day.

Character Info

There are many calls for this young number one comedy duo, whose secret weapon is their unique fighting style.
This little girl seems so grown up when she dances and sings "April Fool's Song", doesn't she?
Character design: shio
Animation: Production I.G.

Anyway, I guess it's 'coz this song is such super high-tension rock and roll.
Anyway, April first is for fools,
Anyway, there was ever-practical Naoko-chama in a flower field, and
Anyway, summer was about hippos in school swimsuits.
Anyway, I was looking for a constant, rigidly moving image,
Anyway, I was able to find a really great motion here.
Anyway, doing the retouch was super fun.
Anyway, the way these two look at each other is great.

Anyway, spring pollen always gets me all sniffy, and my head gets all stuffy ...

Hmm ... since it didn't get called "Tomato", I guess I won't be able to play Cyber Neopolitan.

Amamon.

Aaaah, the hippo's movement is so great! The image of the song and the image of the characters just came together perfectly. Hippo~

There haven't been a lot of people who did April Fool's around me these days, so it's great to be able to use this now. It'll be really embarassing if you don't play right during the chorus, so be careful.

I always wanted to have a really good April Fool's, but what really makes an April fool an April fool? Is it really something that new? is what I wondered about an April Fool song. A fool is a fool, I'd always worry while giggling nervously, so I made a wish to this fine April fool. What happened then, I don't really know, but anyway, it's just like AKIRA YAMAOKA to bring us such a cool and funny April Fool's offering.
That's all.
