Lyrics[]
Sometimes I think, oh yes, I'd move to
Where all the shooting stars are gone
With all of our wishes
※How could they bare, oh no, to carry
Around the stupid human hopes
So I'm going to help, I will!
Give me a key to lock
The door to the secret paradise
There are so many queuing up
And I won't let them in
※Look at them
They are cheeky
They are never worthy to be saved
※Sometimes I feel, oh yes, I could do
Almost everything I wanted
And it makes cry
※Lay your heart, lay your soul
Upon my magic carpet
Now we are flying
To Venus just to kill some time for tea, OK?
Remember, surrender
There's nothing you can do 'cause
Love's such a joke
Like a little Jack-in-the-box, you know
A little Jack-in-the-box
