Lyrics
Game Size
At last I reached you, but your door was already locked. And there was already someone not me the door has been locked completely oh yah I tried to turn the knob but there were only cold sounds. Please could you stop the noise, what was I trying to say to you... what was I trying to say? I just can't keep waiting in front of the door, Please tell me why, why you can't open up your heart to me. Don't wanna see you coming out with somebody else... You'll never be with me, I know oh Lucy. there is not anything I can do to make you change...
Long Version

Song Production Information
ELE BLOCK (no hidari)
Hi, we're ELE BLOCK. I'm on the left side. We're cheerful guys who can sing and dance. Let's go with these characters for now.
I really thought about adding "pipo" at the end to sound ELE-ish, but I didn't do it after all since I'm almost 30 years old.
This time, the sound director requested me to create an '80s sound.
Personally, the real time '80s sound means band boom, amateur idol groups, and shiny music halls, but the sound director seems like a guy who celebrates the revival of the Maharaja. Oh. About that. That's an unreasonable request.
As someone who's familiar with '70s content, I'm not familiar with the '80s in the first place, and come to think of it, I only have a vague impression of a girl who sat on the right side next to me during middle school, and liked Rick Astley.
I continued to interact with her for a while after we graduated from middle school, but it naturally faded out. She had a very strong physique, si if I was destined to fight her, she'd definitely see my half-dead eyes, but actually, her heart was young and delicate.
That girl's name was Lucy. I'm lying.
I don't have anything else to write about, so I'll stop here. I can't help that there's a character like this.
Yours truly.

April. New classes.
A girl who isn't obviously~ bright and immediately becomes popular in class, but a girl who doesn't really stand out but you're very interested in! Do you have memories like this?
Such scene came to mind from the lyrics.
I tried to create the interaction between an excited boy, and a girl (named Lucy) who fell in love at first sight.
