Dr.Sick　私の目が覚めないようにと
そんな治療もバナナの薬も　もう十分
 Dr.Sick   atashi no me ga samenai you ni to
 sonna chiryou mo BANANA no kusuri mo   mou juubun
    "Dr. Sick,
    Give me something so I can't open my eyes," [1]
    That kind of therapy, and all these 'banana pills' [2]
    I've had enough of.

Mr.Tech　「頑丈な義足を君に」と
でもそれじゃ速く走れないの　褒めてよ　利口な口唇を
 Mr.Tech   'ganjou na gisoku wo kimi ni' to
 demo sore ja hayaku hashirenai no   homete yo   rikou no kuchibiru wo
    Mr. Tech,
    'I'll give you a sturdy prosthetic leg,'
    But I can't run fast with that...
    Commend these clever lips of mine!

ここが世界の中心だと
Beautiful Fighter　Wonderful Danger
右手を上げて　私に示して

Sister.Low　無差別に等しいまねより
意味深な教えを体で悟って　少しニヒルに
 Sister.Low   musabetsu ni hitoshii mane yori
 imishin na oshie wo karada de satotte   sukoshi NIHIRU ni
    Sister. Low
    Rather than behaving indiscriminately,
    Grasp the lessons of life with your body
    A little nihilistically.

Come and Go　やがては通り過ぎて行くもの
覚悟できてる　それならせめて　華やぐネオンの装飾を
 Come and Go   yagate wa toorisugite yuku mono
 kakugo wo dekiteru   sore nara semete   hanayagu NEON no soushoku wo
    Come and Go
    Before long, everything passes on
    I'm prepared for it, but then at least
    Let me adorn myself in brilliant neon.

Beautiful Fighter　Pessimistic Dreamer
何が素敵な法則かを
Beautiful Fighter　Working it harder
力を抜いて　自分に示して
Beautiful Fighter
 Beautiful Fighter   Pessimistic Dreamer
 nani ga suteki na housoku ka wo
 Beautiful Fighter   Working it harder
 chikara wo nuite   jibun ni shimeshite
 Beautiful Fighter
    Beautiful Fighter, Pessimistic Dreamer
    What kind of rule do we call wonderful?
    Beautiful Fighter, Working it harder
    Loosen up, and show it to yourself
    Beautiful Fighter

楽になる事にとても興味は無いと
やめないでエンターテイナー　もう少し
 raku ni naru koto ni totemo kyoumi wa nai to
 yamenaide ENTAATEINAA   mou sukoshi
    I've got no interest at all in making life easy
    Don't stop, Entertainer -- just a little more!

Beautiful Fighter　Grateful Slider
ここが世界の中心だと
Beautiful Fighter　Wonderful Danger
右手を上げて　私に示して
 Beautiful Fighter   Grateful Slider
 koko ga sekai no chuushin da to
 Beautiful Fighter   Wonderful Danger
 migite wo agete   atashi ni shimeshite
    Beautiful Fighter, Grateful Slider
    Here is the soul of the world
    Beautiful Fighter, Wonderful Danger
    Raise your right hand and prove it to me, Beautiful Fighter

We're just fighters
We're just strange flowers
Makes one seriously,makes one dirty
It's just a fighter　Graceful answer
Now close this door, and open next door
Beautiful Fighter

TRANSLATOR'S NOTES:
[1] 'Me ga samenai' literally means that you can't open your eyes, but in the sense of not being able to wake up.
[2] 'BANANA no kusuri' literally means 'banana medicine,' but other than when talking about medicine actually made from the banana plant, this phrase is not seen in Japanese. The use of 'banana' here might refer to a meaning sometimes used in English, which is 'crazy' or 'nonsense' ('He's gone bananas," or 'She's talking bananas.'). I've translated the phrase here as 'banana pills' for the convenient pun.
