These have to be some of the coolest lyrics ever! Here's some background on a couple of things. "henachoko" (in this song referring to "boys & girls") means "weak" or maybe even something along the lines of "sissy". In case any of you don't know, an esper is some sort of a being with magical or psychic abilities. The "pipi" following it is just some sort of silly sound effect word. I almost died laughing when I read the line about the hawk...because he wrote "taka" (hawk) in katakana instead of kanji. That's great stuff.

(Ladies & Gentlemen! This is 21st - Century!)
"Wipe your tears away! Because someday night will turn into day" That sort of speech always chokes you up right?
How cool, the weak boys & girls, yeah!
We've tasted biterness and sweetness, right? how? no!
"Things used to be good, things were much better then
Young people were shining, and had dreams and hopes"
You lamenting at 22 years old
Good Morning! - Hello! - Good Night! Today is over
Really? It went by so quickly, didn't it? So this is really bye-bye?
Many apes of many different faces say it all jumbled, but when you eat a meal you get tired (laugh)
We can't be useful in a world that's rapidly getting so convenient
Gradually person after person is disappearing all around us
Darling! As long as you're here, I don't need anything
Good Morning! - Hello! 21st - Century
Really? It went by so quickly, didn't it? So this is the future huh?
Even if full body tights become the popular fashion
Say that you absolutely won't wear them, baby
There's something that I've been hiding from you, don't tell it to anyone
The truth is that I'm...an esper!! pipi
If people who are watching look, they'll understand; if people who are listening listen, they'll understand
"A talented hawk hides it's talons", I don't know the kanji for hawk!
Good Morning! - Hello! 21st - Century
This age is over, and history will repeat
Many apes of many different faces lament about despair, but we're chimpanzees!
Good Morning! - Hello! 21st - Century
Is this freedom? Is this faith? Or is it just theory?
We're making progress, now get a chance
For the time being let's just leave things like they are today
There's something I should desire from my heart
In the end when the only outro ends, "repeat it!"
One-more-please!
