Game Size

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
waiting for a honey man
de-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
love me, take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh, I'm in a heavenly world
de-dup-i-dip-i call my name
de-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

I lived in an ocean, a coral palace.
Grown up in comfort, sweet princess.
Sugar and spices and all that's nice,
The missing ingredient was just your presence.

One day, a witch gave me lovely legs
to come up to your side.
I know this dreamy world's a fairytale.
But could you kiss me here?

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
waiting for a honey man
de-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
love me, take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh, I'm in a heavenly world
de-dup-i-dip-i call my name
de-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

Bubbles sparkle and disappear into the deep blue sea
I know my life is a sad fairytale.
So could you wipe my tears?

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
waiting for a honey man
de-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
love me, take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh, I'm in a heavenly world
de-dup-i-dip-i call my name
de-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

Long Version


I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
Waiting for a honey man
De-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
Love me take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh I'm in a heavenly world
De-dup-i-dip-i call my name
De-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

I lived in an ocean, in a coral palace
Grown up in comfort sweet princess
Sugar and spices and all that's nice
The missing ingredient was just your presence

One day a witch gave me lovely legs
To come up to your side
I know this dreamy world's a fairytale
But could you kiss me here

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
Waiting for a honey man
De-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
Love me take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh I'm in a heavenly world
De-dup-i-dip-i call my name
De-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

When the sun is gone, stars appear in darkness
Noticed you've chose another princess
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Dance alone with smile for you till sunrise

That day I gave her my clear voice
Instead of a shiny day
I know this silent song's a fairytale
Ah could you hear me please

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
Waiting for a honey man
De-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
Love me take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh I'm in a heavenly world
De-dup-i-dip-i call my name
De-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

Bubbles sparkle and disappear
Into the deep blue sea
I know my life is a sad fairytale
So could you wipe my tears

I'm a twinkle little Mermaid girl
Waiting for a honey man
De-dup-i-dip-i sing a song
Love me take me there

I'm a twinkle little mermaid girl
Oh I'm in a heavenly world
De-dup-i-dip-i call my name
De-dup-i-dip-i hold me long

Song Production Information

Halka

From the group HHH, here is Halka.

This time, Halka and moimoi have teamed up to form a new group, called Cream puff.

Well, for the genre Bubblegum Dance, one important thing is to have cute vocals!
When I asked to add this type of song, they said they "would do it", but it took a few years.

Finally, after a while, they allowed me to do it!
Along with this came the responsibility of producing this.

For me to write the lyrics... it was a big responsibility.
I remember thinking about them when awake or asleep.

After a while, the shiny song Mermaid girl was born.
The amount of revisions and the finished product differed greatly from the original.

As for the singer of the song, it is no other than the super cute vocalist from Supernova, moimoi!
And Mr. Ryu☆, with his great reputation for catchy melodies and sparkly sounds, came to help too!
With this great duo helping, the completion of this song far surpassed my expectations!!!

Even now, I still have great nostalgia over those happy days☆

Please enjoy this song!


moimoi

Hi everyone♪, I'm moimoi ☆ ☆ ☆.

One day, I received the lyrics to this shiny and sparkly melody.

I watched it, and the moment I listened to it, my hair shined in rainbow colors!
Wanting to project this image, I sung very hard!

Special thanks go out to Ryu☆ and Halka for making such a wonderful song.

Now everyone! ♪ ♪ ♪ Let us go to a world with rainbows together...


Ryu☆

Hey, it's Ryu☆, the one in charge for the sound of Cream puff/Mermaid girl.
Because of the directions of Halka P, I am proud of making this great song!
I look forward to seeing a lot of plays for this song!

Video Production Information

Fukutomi WAVE

A wish sung by a lovely singing voice is hidden by the foamy waters.
Would you notice me?

I showed up out of the fleeting sweet and beautiful paradise.
Would you notice me?

But you'll not notice
Because it is a sad fairy tale...
