The kanji lyrics were shortened from what was actually sung (things were repeated). So I added them in as best I could to get the most accurate romanization. Miyavi sung a few things differently than what he wrote them, so my translation is based on what I feel is the best combination between the original written lyrics, and what Miyavi sung. A cock's comb is the floppy thing atop a rooster's head. The first line in the song is so weird because Miyavi went for a play on words in Japanese, so it doesn't translate too well into English because it's nonsensical. A "devotchka" is apparently an "urban" word for female or girl.

That hip cock's comb, the hens are completely funny
What is the dirty boogie?
I want to increase the wrinkles in my brain, instead of the wrinkles on my face.
Oh help me honey, help me honey; it seems as though supply and demand are being smashed.
Oh dirty money, oh dirty money; 3, there is no 4, on 5
"A bribe"
Where is that devotchka that I used, and went in & out with; "a-ha, a-ha."
What kind of people are the young people of nowadays?
Why do the old man of nowadays usually say things like "Ah, it's the young people nowadays..."
In that sort of way, with a hunched back
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here it's an optimists paradise.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here with drift with carefree abandon.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Here all of the idiots give their tears down to earth in the end.
We're followers of him.
Dancers are fools, watchers are fools
Singers are fools, shouters are fools
A fool here, a fool there
If both are fools, you might as well destroy them
"Tragedy is comedy... ." say the "thinkers" frankly, if you free time
-Dance, dance, hey, dance-
Well, let's dance barefoot on a scorching tatami.
Oh help me honey, help me honey; the mass production that he's placed in seems to be withering away
When you turn to the right, "copying"; But to the left, "copying"; In the end their putting up a facade
"Entirely the same."
It's your last moment.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
I'm saying it would have been better for you to come the day before yesterday with a shaven head
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here it's an optimists paradise.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here with drift with carefree abandon.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Here all of the idiots give their tears down to earth in the end.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here it's an optimists paradise.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Yes, here with drift with carefree abandon.
Sing, boogie; dance, woogie; Boogie-woogie even if it kills me.
Here all of the idiots give their tears down to earth in the end.
My way of life is mesa boogie, elegant mesa boogie
Come along with us.
