Everyone gets a little carried away, y’know

When they’re criticizing each other each day for everything

Acting as if this world is just a brief interval

Just a place to relieve their boredom until it’s time to go

-

I fell into despair cause there was nothing to do

My eyes were becoming cold and glassy like those of a fish

As I lurked, I simply stared into empty space

As I stared, I naturally shut down my thinking brain

-

Ahh, I’ve come to not care about anything now

But there’s something new that I have finally found out; it’s the most interesting of content, yes

H-U-M-A-N, HUMANS, of course!

-

Make no bones about it, this “gossip” has to be

Greater than any cheap trashy novel to read

They all forget that what you sow is what you reap

And that what goes around will come around eventually

-

Bashing people, though not to make them go away

Cause we all go “Rip” if they should vanish anyway

This tireless crusade of “justice” is fun, is enough

To kill people virtually

-

Acting like they’re sheep, people tend to always, believe

In what the vocal minority speaks

This is a "holy war” between the either extremes

And now those stuck in the middle can do nothing by weep

-

“Did you hear ‘bout the awful things that this person’s done?”

“See how good a person I am, advertising for this cause”

Even those SJWs aren’t warrior enough

For this great human drama touting a god-awful plot

-

Please, I just want to live out my life in peace

This all is harmless and isn’t about me, 

I’ll keep reading this content

H-U-M-A-N, HUMANS, of course!

-

Make no bones about it, this “gossip” has to be

More addictive than any music, you’ll see

So go on bashing people and hold nothing back

Come on, and join the fun of all the flaming and attacks

-

Making a fuss over some new idiot today

But after we’re bored of him we’ll just throw him away

Oh those are the cheap kind of laughs that we seek

To appease our excitement-craving needs

-

We’re all laughing too much

We make way too much fuss

We’re all laughing too much

We make way too much fuss

-

R.I.P in the Gossip Sea

You’ll sink to the bottom if you don’t know how to swim

All the fools who would use to argue with me

All ended up drowning in the sea as well

-

(Oh, that’s sad...)

(That’s so sad...!)

(Now I feel bad!!)

(But not really)

PACING GUIDE

(please note that this is a rundown of how I imagine these lyrics being sung as illustrated by the separation of syllables in the original romaji. this is not a representation of how the original Japanese lyrics are supposed to be sung or written i.e. some syllables may be made to run together, one syllable may be stretched out into more than one, some romaji are on a different line from where they are in the original, etc.)
